The Two Tone Slant Pocket Drawstring Cargo Pants bring together the storage utility of technical workwear and the clean cut of contemporary street style. The proportions are thought through: pocket placement at mid-thigh rather than the hip keeps visual weight lower and avoids the wide-hip silhouette that poorly placed cargo pockets create. The waistband construction holds its structure through a full day of wear without the rolling or folding that signals cheap construction. Available in Green, Blue, Brown.
What Sets These Cargo Pants Apart
- Cargo pocket configuration — more usable daily storage than standard pants without the bulk of tactical workwear
- Adjustable drawstring waist — wear tighter for a defined silhouette or looser for all-day comfort, the drawstring stays tied rather than slipping out
- Colour block design — two distinct colour panels with a clean division; pick the more muted of the two block colours for your top for a coordinated result
- Available in sizes XS, S, M, L, XL — see the size guide below before ordering
- Comes in Green, Blue, Brown, Gray — each colorway has distinct styling potential depending on how casual or elevated you want the outfit to read
Fit & Sizing
True to size for most body types — these are cut to standard women's sizing without unusual adjustments. The hip and thigh fit is the critical measurement; if you're fuller through the hips or thighs, size up rather than going by waist alone. If the waistband has a little extra room, a belt solves it easily without losing the hip and thigh fit. Most customers find their usual size correct. Available in sizes XS, S, M, L, XL.
How to Style
Pick one of the two block colours and match your top to it — this ties the outfit together rather than adding a third competing colour. Keep accessories minimal: one hardware tone and shoes in a colour that appears in the pants. The colour block is already a statement — the supporting pieces should be quiet. Monochromatic shoes in one of the block colours create a longer leg line than shoes in a third contrasting colour.
Fabric & Care
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle — this is the single most important step for extending the life of any fashion fabric. Avoid high-heat tumble drying for the first 5–10 washes, which is when colour and fibre integrity are most vulnerable. Turn inside-out before washing to protect the outer face from friction and uneven fading.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before you buy
Two Tone Slant Pocket Drawstring Cargo Pants are described as non-stretch — how do I know which size to order? +
Measure your hips before ordering, not your waist — the hip is the measurement that matters with non-stretch fabric because the cut cannot stretch to accommodate. If you're between sizes, go up. The waistband will have slightly more room, which a belt fixes easily; but a hip seam that's too tight will pull across the seat with every step and there's nothing you can do about it. Most customers who return non-stretch pants ordered their usual stretch-denim size by feel rather than measuring.
The Two Tone Slant Pocket Drawstring Cargo Pants are non-stretch cotton — how do they feel after a long day of wear? +
Non-stretch cotton has a structured, slightly board-like feel when new that softens significantly after 2–3 wears and washes. By the end of the first week the fibers relax and the fabric drapes against the body rather than holding its shape away from it. What non-stretch cotton does well that stretch blends can't match: it holds the cut of the pant through a full day without sagging at the knee or seat.
Are the side pockets on the Two Tone Slant Pocket Drawstring Cargo Pants deep enough, or are they the shallow decorative type? +
The side pockets are functional and appropriately deep — approximately 16cm, enough to hold a medium smartphone without it sitting half-exposed. They're cut at a natural hand-drop angle so you don't have to angle your wrist awkwardly to reach in, which sounds minor but matters when you're doing it 40 times a day. The opening is nearly invisible from the front, which keeps the silhouette clean. The pocket bags are sewn from the main fabric rather than a thin lining, which is what separates a functional pocket from.
Will the Two Tone Slant Pocket Drawstring Cargo Pants shrink in the wash, and how do I prevent it? +
Cold wash on a gentle cycle and line dry: shrinkage is 0–1% and undetectable in practice. The risk is machine drying on high heat — non-stretch cotton can lose up to a full size in the waist after five cycles of hot-wash-plus-high-heat drying. A single warm wash won't cause noticeable shrinkage and can actually help break in the fabric faster if the stiffness of new cotton bothers you. Turn them inside-out before washing to protect the outer surface and prevent uneven fading in darker colours.
How do you style color block pants without the outfit looking too loud? +
Pick one of the two block colours and match your top to it exactly or within one shade — this ties the outfit together rather than adding a third competing colour. If the colorblock is black-and-white, a solid black or white top reads clean. If it's a bold combination (red-and-beige, blue-and-tan), the more muted of the two makes the safer top choice. Keep accessories minimal: one hardware tone (all silver or all gold) and shoes in a colour that appears in the pants.
Are the Two Tone Slant Pocket Drawstring Cargo Pants long enough for taller frames — do they hit the right length at 5'8"+? +
At 5'8" the standard inseam on most styles hits just at or slightly above the ankle, which reads as a deliberate cropped length rather than too-short. At 5'10"+ there's usually a 3–5cm gap between the hem and the floor, which looks intentional in wide-leg or jogger styles but can look abruptly short in straight-leg or formal styles. The practical answer: check the listed inseam length against your body measurement (floor to hip) minus the rise, and if the result is under your inseam length, the pants will work.
