Cargo Comeback

Cargo Comeback

Posted by Leigh Roldan on


The 2000's trends are back (alright!), and with it brings the cargo comeback. Typically made from cotton and defined by a baggy silhouette and a multitude of utility pockets, women's cargo pants are the perfect melding of comfort, fashion and function.

Originated in the 1930's by the British Armed Forces, the military trousers took the fashion scene by storm in the early 2000's. Most notable for their deep and plentiful pockets, they were originally used for storing items like maps and battle dressings - a stark contrast to recent tiny handbags and women's clothing with faux or no pockets! With the resurgence of vintage style bottoms like carpenter pants and cargos, it seems that functionality is back in fashion.

How To Wear Cargo Pants

Ready to take on the Y2K styling revival? Say hello to your new wardrobe favourite and discover our wide range of cargo pants for women in an array of colours like black, khaki, green, brown, beige and white. With comfort and style going hand in hand, who could say no? Here are some styling tips and inspo for your next street style 'fit:

  • Get an effortlessly casual day look by matching cargo trousers with an oversized tee or graphic top and finishing it off with white or high top sneakers.

  • Make your cargo pants the star of the show by choosing a unique detail like a drawstring waist and ankles or a bright shade like green, blue or pink. Then, pair with a plain white tee, tank top or cami.

  • Lean into the military vibes with combat pants in camouflage or khaki. Wear with a black t shirt and combat boots to complete the look.

  • Go bold with a statement print top or stay on top of the trends by pairing them with corset tops. Just add heels for a glam take!
