Double Cup Cargo Shorts: the spec sheet

The Double Cup Cargo Shorts is the whole denim collection at That’s A Awful Lot Of Cough Syrup right now, which currently holds exactly one product. 14 oz denim is what it is cut from, a mid-weight that holds a leg shape rather than collapsing, and the rise is mid. Because the color comes from a shop here garment dye, applied through what the brand calls a double dye process to mimic sun-fading, two pairs in the same colorway will not be identical. Construction is specified in detail: double-layer double cup pockets at the back, cargo pockets at the side, a button fly, and a custom leather patch. Taken from the graphics into the pocket build, the brand’s own cup motif is what the name refers to. The store lists four colorways, Grey, Black/Green, Purple and Red, and the size run goes by waist rather than by letter. As of September 2026, the brand’s own store has it at about $150, listed against a higher compare-at figure of $300, and that kind of markdown does not stay live forever.

The remainder of the shorts rail

A much wider shorts offering holds that single denim style, and it is where most alocs shorts searches actually end up. Three variations on the same graphic idea, the Glocc Shorts, Mexico Glocc Shorts and USA Glocc Shorts, sit in the main tier at about $150. Alongside them are the Awful Lot Of Stincs Shorts and the Awful Lot Of Stincs Buddha Shorts, plus the ALOCS x Stinc Team Dragon Shorts from the same capsule, which was published to the store in July 2026. The Awful Lot Of Chiefin Heavily Shorts and the Classic Sweat Shorts round out that price tier, with the sweat short being the obvious pairing for the matching fleece bottoms in the catalogue. Further down the Awful Lot Of Respect Cuhh Shorts land at about $100 and the Women’s Booty Shorts at about $60, which is what gives the category its $60 to $150 band. As a standing clearance mechanic the brand also runs a Mystery Shorts item at about $50 that lets the floor dip below that band when stock needs clearing. Every figure here was what the brand’s own store showed as of September 2026, and drops bring re-pricing at this label.

The other pieces cut from denim and workwear

The shorts are not where the denim ends if that is why you are here, though they are the only denim short. Black, Blue and Tan cover the ALOCS Denim Jacket at about $300 each, and the ALOCS Carpenter Pants run in the same three colors at the same price. As a full-length companion for the cargo short, those carpenter pants are the closest the catalogue gets, and they carry the same waist-based sizing logic. A Dickies-bodied workwear line sits next to the denim, with the Cough Syrup Loose Fit Dickies Pants at about $250 and the Glocc Dickies Pants at about $300, both published as a 65% cotton and 35% polyester blend. Workwear and denim are different propositions here, and that blend is the giveaway: one is a hard-wearing poly-cotton twill, the other is raw weight in cotton. Right across the range the construction signals stay constant, the signature yellow woven label appearing garment after garment in the brand’s own copy. Product copy also states the pieces are made in Los Angeles, hand-dyed and printed there, and screen-printed there, which is a real cost input at these prices.

The lineup in one table

What the brand publishes, and nothing beyond it, is what the table below lists. Rather than guessing at a number, the cell says so where a product page gives no fabric weight or flat measurement. Taken from the brand’s own store as of September 2026, the prices will move with drops, restocks and sale periods. Fit notes are per product, because this label publishes them per product and they are not uniform across the catalogue. The denim short carries the most detail because it is the only entry with a full published measurement table. Open the individual listing for the style you want before you pick a size, and read the table as a shortlist.

Sizing: the waist matters, not the letter

Denim and workwear at this label are sold by waist measurement, running 28 to 44, which removes most of the guesswork that letter sizing introduces. A full flat table is published on the Double Cup Cargo Shorts, and it runs: small is a 29.5 inch waist with a 7.75 inch inseam, medium 31.5 and 8, large 33.5 and 8.5, extra large 35.5 and 9, and 2XL 37.5 and 9.5. Half an inch per size is how the inseam moves, so the short stays roughly the same length on the leg as the waist grows rather than dropping toward the knee. Fit guidance on this style is explicit: it runs true to size, and for an oversized fit you size up one. Going up two on a 14 oz denim body will read as baggy rather than oversized, because that single step is the whole instruction. Most of the rest of the shorts rail does not publish measurements, which means the per-product fit sentence is the only guidance you get. The brand publishes no global size chart and no washing instructions anywhere on its store, which is worth stating plainly, so do not assume a care routine from the garment-dye alone.

What people actually type into search

Much of the traffic looking for denim shorts from this label arrives typing the word jorts, and that word needs handling carefully. The brand never uses it, anywhere, on any product page or in any product name. The only denim short in the catalogue is the Double Cup Cargo Shorts, which is what searchers mean by it, so the useful translation is simply that the jorts everybody is asking about are the Double Cup Cargo Shorts. That same pattern extends to the brand name itself, typed as awful lot of cough syrup, awful lotta cough syrup and a dozen other near-misses, none of which are the brand’s own spelling. It matters practically, since plenty of stores selling cough syrup clothing under those spellings have no connection to the label at all. The checks that hold up are garment ones: the yellow woven label, the published 14 oz denim spec, the real price levels, and whether the product name appears in the brand’s own catalogue. Anyone shopping alocs clothing in person can use the Los Angeles stores at 7669 Melrose Ave and 312 W 5th St or the Houston store at 5410 Almeda Rd, and anyone shopping online should re-check the current price before buying, since everything quoted here is a September 2026 snapshot.
