Cargos that are all kinds of cool (and under £150)
EQVVS favourites from the likes of Carhartt WIP, Dickies, Gramicci and more.
Cargo pants have been the style of the season for the last few, and the ones before, and probably will be the style of the next, and the next...but let's not get all existential 'ey?
You get the point, cargos are in, so now you just need to grab a pair. Investing in a good pair is the easiest way to make sure your throw-on outfits as you head out of the door are all cool, calm and collected (aka not us as we rush out of the door). Because we are ever so nice over here at EQVVS, we've put together a list of some of our best cargo styles from our favourite brands to save you the job of hunting. Plus, they're are all under £150, so you won't be left feeling out of pocket (sorry).
The sister brand of the OG 1889 workwear brand Carhartt, Carhartt WIP takes on all the functional workwear qualities of the cargo but adds a little streetwear spice.
Blending street styles with a skater aesthetic, Carhartt WIP is one of the leading menswear brands in the fashion landscape, and are pulling out all the stops to make sure we're all looking our best.
These black cargos fit oversized through the leg, with adjustable ties at the ankles for a comfy fit, plus they crafted from Carhartt's ripstop 100% cotton, making them sturdy enough to take a few hits at the skate park.
Another brand bringing classic workwear styles into the mainstream fashion market, these Dickies Jackson Cargo Pants are perfect for work and play.
The Jackson Cargo Pants come in a regular fit through the leg, with pockets to the thigh (obviously) and are finished with the classic Dickies horseshoe motif on that lovely, practical pocket.
Popular again amongst skater subcultures, the Jacksons are constructed with a breathable design, promoting movement and flexibility for everything that could possibly happen on your board. The elasticated waistband and ankle cuffs make for the perfect fit, meaning these cargos will be yours and yours alone.
N.B. We do not recommend falling off a skateboard, but reckon these Cargo pants will hold up if you do.
PLEASURES:
Coming all the way from L.A. the designs from PLEASURES are bound to add some star power to your everyday English life, and these cargos are no exception.
The wide fit through the leg is great if you're the kind of guy who just can't sit still, and comfy as anything if you're on the other couch-dwelling end of the spectrum. Also, if you're feeling a bit too drafty, there's handy ties on the ankles for a slimmer silhouette if you're after that. You can even change your mind halfway through the day and tighten them up on the go.
The plain black design is verstaile and great for chucking on, but the red embroidered PLEASURES logo on the back pocket adds a touch of spice. If you're digging these, you'll love the rest of our PLEASURES collection so have a look, we dare you not to add to basket.
REPRESENT:
Manchester's finest, REPRESENT are go-tos for the latest streetwear styles, and no streetwear collection is complete without cargos- we all know that.
These baggy beige badboys add something a bit different to your legwear collection, with assymentrical angled pockets they add a bit of edge to the traditional cargo whilst keeping to that ever-so-important comfortable oversized fit. With these, it's all in the details, all the way down to the little 'R' on each zip.
Pair them with your favourite sweat and your best pair of kicks and your'e off and away.
Gorpcore meets street style with these Relaxed Fit G Pants by Gramicci.
Originally founded as a brand for the outdoor enthusiast, y'know hiking and rock climbing fanatics, these cargo pants allow you to take on the outdoors in style. They're built for practicality, but styled to stay on trend.
Crafted with 100% cotton, they're lightweight enough to keep you cool for the summer, with a relaxed fit through the leg and that iconic little running man on the belt.
