Overview
Built for demanding days on the job or in the field, these cargo work pants focus on durability and ease of movement without feeling restrictive. The ripstop fabric, double-front knees, and CORDURA-lined pockets add practical reinforcement where wear tends to show up first, while the gusseted crotch and Rugged Flex stretch are made to support active movement. A relaxed fit through the seat and thighs gives them a roomier feel, and the cargo and utility pocket layout keeps small essentials organized and close at hand.

Pros
- Durable ripstop fabric is designed to resist wear and tear during demanding use.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Relaxed fit is roomy through the seat and thighs, which gives more freedom of movement but less of a trim, close-to-body feel.
- The double-front knees add durability and can accommodate knee pads, but knee pads are sold separately.
- Cargo pockets and multiple utility pockets add carrying capacity, though they also make the pants more feature-heavy than a simpler work pant.
- The ripstop fabric includes cotton, polyester, and spandex for stretch and recovery, so the feel will be different from a traditional all-cotton pant.
