Description

Rick Owens Cargo Shorts

Drop-crotch cargo shorts, black cotton, the crotch sits low enough that there’s a visible gap between the legs even standing straight. Two flap pockets stacked on each thigh, snaps closing them with visible grommet eyelets right below.

Waist pulls in with drawstring, cord left loose and long down the front like usual. Legs balloon out wide from hip to knee before the shorts end, giving the whole thing a rounder, fuller shape than a straight-cut pair would have.

Construction Notes

Drop-crotch cut, low seat
Double flap pockets, both thighs, snap closure
Grommet eyelets below each pocket
Elastic drawstring waistband
Wide, rounded leg shape

Pocket flaps are stitched at an angle rather than square, and the grommets underneath look more decorative than functional, just breaking up the flat cotton surface with a bit of hardware. Fabric holds its shape decently at the pocket edges without curling.

Fabric

Cotton’s medium weight, matte black with no sheen. Doesn’t crease easily based on how clean the panel lines look, likely a slightly stiffer weave than a jersey or fleece.

Wearing Them

That drop crotch already adds bulk up top, so a fitted Porterville Rick Owens Shirt tucked in keeps the silhouette from looking too heavy overall. Rick Owens Sneakers or Rick Owens Geobasket both sit well under the wide leg opening.
