Cool Cargo: Upgrade Your Style with Fashionable Functionality!

Greetings, Studio 88'ers! Are you peeps ready to explore the functional fashion of cargo pants? We thought you'd be. Let's start by exploring the history of these fashion staples.

The Origin of Cargo Pants

The cargo pants we know and love today originated in Britain in 1938. Military personnel wore them as part of their Battle Dress Uniforms. Cargo pants originally featured one pocket on the side thigh and an additional pocket on the hip.

Now that we're familiar with the roots of these go-to fashionable pants, let's explore the three different types of cargo pants available at Studio 88, both online and in-store.

Three Different Types of Cargo Pants

Contrary to what you may believe, not all cargo pants are made equal. Some are more functional, while others are more stylish. Allow us to break it down for you.

Streetwear Cargo Pants

What are streetwear cargo pants? These cargoes redefine the classic military-inspired trousers, turning them into distinctive pieces of fashion that address the needs of contemporary fashion-conscious individuals by integrating flair and efficiency. Streetwear cargo pants generally have a slimmer cut and are made of high-quality technical fabrics and cotton blends, radiating appeal and durability. Their fine stitching and other embellishments make them distinctive pieces in street fashion, with a fitted silhouette that strikes the right balance between comfort and chic urban.

Streetwear cargo pants have multiple thoughtfully placed pockets, giving the design an edged-up, practical touch. Their versatility makes them unique; they can even be worn as semi-formal attire.

Baggy Cargo Pants

These cargo pants combine ease of wear with practicality. Known for its roomy silhouette and generous storage, these pants have evolved from humble beginnings to become a fashion statement embraced by a diverse range of subcultures and trendsetters. With its numerous large pockets, elastic waistbands or drawstrings and baggy fit, these pants put mobility first.

Other than just being comfortable, baggy cargo trousers have several uses and effortlessly transition between casual and streetwear styles.

Cargo Jogger Pants

The Cargo jogger is an updated take on the classic cargo pant design and combines style with practicality comfortably and fashionably. These pants redefine the classic cargo pants, creating a sleek, tapered form with an athletic edge. Innovative fabric combinations such as cotton and elastane blends make for functional wear. At the same time, the elasticated cuff gives them a unique style and snug fit around the ankles, perfect for those who lead active lifestyles.
