The spec sheet on the Double Cup Cargo Shorts
A single product sits in the denim collection at That’s A Awful Lot Of Cough Syrup at the moment, and it is the Double Cup Cargo Shorts. Cut from 14 oz denim, a mid-weight that holds a leg shape rather than collapsing, the short carries a mid rise. A garment dye sets the that’s a whole lot of cough syrup color, applied through what the brand calls a double dye process to mimic sun-fading, which means two pairs in the same colorway will not be identical. 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. Taken from the graphics into the pocket build, the brand’s own cup motif is what the name refers to. Four colorways are listed, Grey, Black/Green, Purple and Red, and the size run goes by waist rather than by letter. At the brand’s own store the price sits at about $150 as of September 2026, listed against a higher compare-at figure of $300, and that kind of markdown does not stay live forever.
Everything else on the shorts rail
A much wider shorts offering sits around 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. Beside them sit 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 completed by the Awful Lot Of Chiefin Heavily Shorts and the Classic Sweat Shorts, and the sweat short is the obvious pairing for the matching fleece bottoms in the catalogue. Below that, 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. On top of that, the brand runs a Mystery Shorts item at about $50 as a standing clearance mechanic, which means the floor can dip below that band when stock needs clearing. What the brand’s own store showed as of September 2026 is where every one of these figures comes from, and this label re-prices with drops.
Beyond the shorts: denim and workwear
If you are here for denim, the shorts are not the end of it, though they are the only denim short. At about $300 each the ALOCS Denim Jacket runs in Black, Blue and Tan, and the ALOCS Carpenter Pants run in the same three colors at the same price. Those carpenter pants come closest to a full-length companion for the cargo short in this catalogue, and they carry the same waist-based sizing logic. Sitting next to the denim is a workwear line built on Dickies bodies, including 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. That blend is the marker that workwear and denim are different propositions here, one a hard-wearing poly-cotton twill, the other raw weight in cotton. 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. The 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.
A glance across the lineup
Nothing beyond what the brand publishes goes into the table below. Wherever a product page gives no fabric weight or flat measurement, the cell says so instead of guessing at a number. Drawn from the brand’s own store as of September 2026, the prices will move with drops, restocks and sale periods. Because this label publishes fit notes per product, that is how they appear here, and they are not uniform across the catalogue. Most detail sits on the denim short, since it is the only entry with a full published measurement table. Before choosing a size, read it as a shortlist and then open the individual listing for the style you want.

On sizing, read the waist rather than the letter
Here, denim and workwear are sold by waist measurement, running 28 to 44, which 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. Rather than dropping toward the knee, the short stays roughly the same length on the leg as the waist grows, because the inseam moves half an inch per size. Fit guidance is explicit on this one: 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. Stated plainly, the brand publishes no global size chart and no washing instructions anywhere on its store, so do not assume a care routine from the garment-dye alone.
What people are really searching for
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. Since the Double Cup Cargo Shorts are the only denim short in the catalogue, that is what searchers mean, and the useful translation is simply that the jorts everybody is asking about are the Double Cup Cargo Shorts. The brand name itself gets the same treatment, 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. That matters practically, because a lot of stores selling cough syrup clothing under those spellings have no connection to the label at all. The garment checks are the ones that work: 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 has the Los Angeles stores at 7669 Melrose Ave and 312 W 5th St or the Houston store at 5410 Almeda Rd, while anyone shopping online should re-check the current price before buying, since everything quoted here is a September 2026 snapshot.
