The History of Men’s Cargo Shorts
Cargo-style trousers were first worn by the British infantry before American soldiers wore them during WW2. The iconic style, with deep, expandable pockets and sturdy cotton material, made them a sensible choice for those who needed to carry essentials without the bulk.
After their military duties were complete, soldiers took their gear home and the cargo shorts slowly made their way into mainstream fashion during the years that followed the war. Their style and function has definitely evolved over the years, but cargos will always remain a must-have wardrobe piece for true outdoorsy gents.
Styling Our Men’s Cargo Shorts
Hiking
Whether getting out in your local woodland or exploring the many peaks of the Lake District, our cargo shorts are a brilliant hiking companion. Made with a roomy fit, they’re brilliantly comfortable even when tackling the most challenging of summits. Pair with our hiking boots, hiking socks, and don’t forget a jacket.
Laid-Back Weekends
Ideal for heading to your local, getting together with family, or chilling at home, our men’s cargo shorts blend comfort and practicality. Complete the look with a polo shirt or rugby shirt and layer a hoodie during cooler seasons.
Summer-Ready
During the warmer months, making the most of the sunshine is what it’s all about, isn’t it? Throw on a pair of trainers or sandals, pick a soft, generous-fit t‑shirt, and complete the look with a hat – our bush hats or baseball caps look the part with our cargo shorts.
