The piece

How to choose and wear cargo pants

Utility trousers with side pockets on the thigh. Relaxed and practical, they belong to casual and streetwear outfits.

How to choose

  • Flat, neat pockets keep them wearable; oversized bellows pockets look like workwear.
  • Cotton ripstop or twill in olive, khaki, black or stone.
  • A tapered or cuffed leg stops them looking baggy.

Common mistakes

  • Pairing with blazers or dress shoes: the formality gap shows.
  • Loading the pockets so they bulge.
  • Wearing them too long, bunching over the shoe.

Care: Machine wash cold; hang to dry to avoid shrinkage.

In a capsule: Fits a casual capsule; skip it if the capsule has to cover work.

The details

Length, belt and fabric

What makes the colours above look deliberate.

Length
Tapered or cuffed at the ankle, so the pockets don't drag the silhouette down.
Belt
Match the belt to your shoes when they're leather; with sneakers, any neutral belt works.
Fabric
The same beige in a different weight: cotton or linen for summer, wool, flannel or heavier cotton for winter.

Avoid

What not to wear with beige cargo pants

Skip the pink oxford shirt. An oxford shirt is dressier than cargo pants, so the pairing only works in a deliberately mixed outfit. Colour-wise it works: beige is a neutral, so it lets pink be the accent without clashing.
Skip the khaki trench coat. A trench coat is dressier than cargo pants, so the pairing only works in a deliberately mixed outfit. Colour-wise it works: beige and khaki are close in depth; add a darker or lighter piece to separate them.
