The gallant story of the Cargo Pants

As cool and fashionable the cargo pants may seem, their history is quite archaic. They were initially introduced by the US military personal as part of their battle dress uniform. The original version of the Cargos consisted of one pocket at the side and one at the front. Side pockets were mainly for the para troopers who had to keep a radio and ammunition on hand. They gained mainstream recognition when hip hop performers made them popular on the big and small screen. The youth followed enthusiastically.

Top Features of a good pair of Cargo Pants

A good, rugged, long-lasting pair of Cargo pants should ideally be made from a hard wearing, quick drying synthetic/cotton-synthetic blended fabric. The fitting should be loose, comfortable and perfectly sized. The waist should preferably be fitted enough to close without a belt as well. The pockets have to be perfectly aligned with the person’s height as to easily access them with one hand. The pockets have to be deep, sturdy and zipped to hold a person’s belongings safely. The perfect fabric doesn’t have to be completely wrinkle free but should look presentable without being ironed. It takes a lot of details to produce a perfectly fitted, great looking yet economical pair of Cargos. Dominance has mastered this art, it seems.
