There's a certain joy to be found at the intersection of fashion and function – a perfectly placed pocket or an all-terrain fabrication. And nothing quite speaks to this joy like the humble cargo pant.
But cargo pants can be tricky. As with any garment that finds itself trapped in trend cycles, we've witnessed what feels like thousands of different iterations. From ruched side seams and tapered legs, to the elasticated and cuffed – all you have to do is run a simple search in your browser to see that nowadays, the possibilities are absolutely endless.
In this round up however, we're not asking for anyone to reach for the stars. In fact, we're asking of the exact opposite. And surely, in the way of our spring summer round ups we have already covered so much ground. From our favourite spring summer brands, blue jeans and the best oxfords to covet, we now venture into utilitarian territory to present to you – the precious cargo.
Below we round up some brands who do it best. Similar to the gems one might pull out of an army disposal bin or found in categories of mountaineering or workwear, because believe it or not, I still believe, these are the ones that really do land the easiest on the eye.
Whether it's labeled menswear or womenswear - a pant is a pant and to us, gender doesn't make much difference. So moving on to find here below, here are some of our favourites in cargo pants (low slung at best) for you to enjoy.
