Are the new ones with the white pockets as durable as the older ones with silver pockets?

Yes and yes, matter of fact, I did without for a few years because I couldn't find any in the stores like the one that I had before. My husband spent 4 times as much on 1 at a pool store and still didn't compare to this one. I am very pleased with it.

I asked my husband. He says there is a extra pocket on the left side. He love these pants. They wear and wash super well with little or no wrinkle. Lots of pockets, should have no problem

I have the white one and have owned it for about a two weeks or so and i am noticing a couple scratches and a few rubbed out spaces, but that is only on real close inspection.

Also noted in my review, I had 2 of this backpack prior to 2014. I used both everyday heavily, and each lasted 4+ years. I just bought a new 3rd one, only to find it has been remodeled slightly (less zippers, smaller water bottle holder, less internal pouches, etc). I cannot guarantee the durability is the same, but the older ones I had were very sturdy and well-made.

It certainly sounds like it. (I was expecting bigger pockets when I got mine). The top row had tiny ones. The second row has 2 3x6 approx. and the 3rd row had 3 3x4 approx.

They are not changeabl. Howeve, they are very durable. I've had mine for almost 7 months now and they are in perfect shape. I got them when I bought a phone on Amazon and I had to go searching for them separately to get my brother and aunt one each.

Yes. I have used them for quite a few years now. They have held their shape and are still soft and not very worn at all.The zipper even still works smoothly.

The newer model is not as well constructed- much lighter with cheaper materials. The old model lasted me 12 years. Larmaroly

No, the design is in the material. My daughter puts it in her back pocket and it is not showing any signs of wear.

These pockets are clear. I'm thinking you're meaning the matte finish on some plastic pockets that make them a bit cloudy...these are not that way, they are clear.

Mine has been holding up for quite a while. And that's considering I slip in in and out of my pocket all the time. The elastic is still good. The worst wear and tear it has is a few little lint fuzzies that are easily plucked off. This has proven to be an excellent purchase for me!

These newer ones are a softer more pliable material. I have had no problems with them... I have two..

Yes, I have purchased two pairs here on amazon several months apart and the both have the pockets. I missed them at first, the pockets open at the side, not the top as you might expect.

I'm not sure what they used to be like but I purchased ours back in April of this year and we have not had any problems. We have this one and the orange one. They have survived two flights and daily heavy play. The latches have never come off.

I bought them 2 summers ago. They are in the trash now. At the time they were the newest on the market, so I'm not sure if there are newer ones now or not.

The pockets can hold quite a bit. Probably best between 10-20 for each pocket. Its a great folder. I have 3 now!
