Double Cup Cargo Shorts: the spec sheet
The Double Cup Cargo Shorts are the whole denim collection at That’s A Awful Lot Of Cough Syrup right now, which currently holds exactly one product. What you get is 14 oz denim, a mid-weight that holds a leg shape rather than collapsing, and the rise is mid. Two pairs in the same colorway will not be identical, because the color comes alocs graphic tee from a garment dye applied through what the brand calls a double dye process to mimic sun-fading. The build details get specific: double-layer double cup pockets at the back, cargo pockets at the side, a button fly, and a custom leather patch. The name nods straight to the brand’s own cup motif, carried over from the graphics into the pocket build. Grey, Black/Green, Purple and Red make up the four colorways listed, and the size run goes by waist rather than by letter. About $150 is where the price sits at the brand’s own store as of September 2026, listed against a higher compare-at figure of $300, and that kind of markdown does not stay live forever.
The rest of the shorts rail
A much wider shorts offering surrounds that single denim style, and it is where most alocs shorts searches actually end up. The main tier sits at about $150 and includes the Glocc Shorts, Mexico Glocc Shorts and USA Glocc Shorts, which run as a set of three variations on the same graphic idea. 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. That price tier is rounded off by the Awful Lot Of Chiefin Heavily Shorts and the Classic Sweat Shorts, and the sweat short pairs obviously with the matching fleece bottoms in the catalogue. Further down the Awful Lot Of Respect Cuhh Shorts sit 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. These figures are every one what the brand’s own store showed as of September 2026, and this label re-prices with drops.
The other pieces cut from denim and workwear
If denim brought you here, the shorts are not the end of it, they are just 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 here is a hard-wearing poly-cotton twill while the denim is raw weight in cotton, and that blend is the giveaway that the two are different propositions. Constant across all of it are the construction signals, with the signature yellow woven label turning up garment after garment in the brand’s own copy. Product copy goes on to say that the pieces are made in Los Angeles, hand-dyed and printed there, and screen-printed there, a real cost input at these prices.
Every style at a glance
The table below lists what the brand publishes, and nothing beyond it. Where a product page gives no fabric weight or flat measurement, the cell says so instead of guessing at a number. Prices are the brand’s own store figures as of September 2026 and will move with drops, restocks and sale periods. Per product is how the fit notes run, because this label publishes them per product and they are not uniform across the catalogue. A full published measurement table exists for the denim short alone, and that is why it carries the most detail. Treat it as a shortlist, then open the individual listing for the style you want before you pick a size.

Sizing: read the waist, not the letter
Waist measurement, running 28 to 44, is how denim and workwear are sold at this label, and it removes most of the guesswork that letter sizing introduces. On the Double Cup Cargo Shorts the full flat table runs like this: 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. The inseam moves half an inch per size, so the short stays roughly the same length on the leg as the waist grows rather than dropping toward the knee. Explicit fit guidance sits on this style: it runs true to size, and for an oversized fit you size up one. That single step is the whole instruction, so going up two on a 14 oz denim body will read as baggy rather than oversized. The rest of the shorts rail, mostly, 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 searchers are actually after
A large share of the traffic looking for denim shorts from this label arrives typing the word jorts, and that word needs handling carefully. It is not used by the brand, anywhere, on any product page or in any product name. What searchers mean by it is the Double Cup Cargo Shorts, which is the only denim short in the catalogue, so the useful translation is simply that the jorts everybody is asking about are the Double Cup Cargo Shorts. The same pattern runs through the brand name itself, which gets 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. Plenty of stores selling cough syrup clothing under those spellings have no connection to the label at all, which is why that matters practically. Checking the garment is what works: 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. In person there are the Los Angeles stores at 7669 Melrose Ave and 312 W 5th St and the Houston store at 5410 Almeda Rd for anyone shopping alocs clothing, and online you should re-check the current price before buying, since everything quoted here is a September 2026 snapshot.
