Cargo fashion for modern men

You might have wondered watching new generation guys wearing trousers with multiple pockets and number of straps ganging down on it. This is the latest trend in men fashion wear, namely cargo pants. Fashion trends change time to time, there rocked once the age of boot-cut pants, then there pushed in the era of rough and stylish jeans and now it is the reign of cargo wears. Not only the number of pockets make cargo pants differ from each other but also the fashionable look, hard but stretching fabric, perfect matching with shirts or T-shirts etc... add to the features of cargo wears. While lots of pockets may be stylish these days, any true workman knows that they've always been handy. Crafted in wrinkle-resistant, stain-release fabric with triple-stitched seams, these cargo pants are ready to take on any task with effortless good looks.
Cargo pants are much like regular use pants, but were designed originally for tough, outdoor activities. They are baggier, permitting free movement, made of hard-wearing, quick-drying fabrics, with tough stitching, and have large belt loops and several additional patch pockets. A broad variety of sizes, shapes and placements are keeping their hallmark pockets exciting to Users. Cargo pockets generally have accordion folds in the sides for increased capacity, and often have large flaps secured with snaps. They were originally used as battledress or sport hunting clothing for carrying maps, compasses and other equipment in an easily accessible way. But today they are the most liked fashion were of modern men.

The garments are normally made of rectangular panels of fabric, designed to allow bending at the knee and hip without stretching. Occasionally the knee joint has a hidden gap for ventilation. Stitching is often expressed as an external felled seam, and may be sewn in a contrasting colour to give the garment strong lines. Felled seams are commonly used in outdoor garments to improve water resistance.

The cargo style was copied by fashion designers in the late 1980s in the UK, and the late 1990s in the USA, and applied to everyday urban wear. This proved popular with young people, partly due to the tough construction and useful side pockets, for storing personal items such as cell phone, wallet, iPod, candies, lighter, etc... and partly to suit the whims of fashion, presenting a rugged, no-nonsense look suggesting military and outdoor activities. They are commonly worn by travelers and tourists, who use the extra pockets for items such as cameras, film-rolls, maps and plane tickets. When cargo pants are worn for purely aesthetic reasons, the pockets are often not used.

Even though the early designs were typically robust and hard-wearing, today cargoes are most often softer, thinner and lightweight. Cargoes create a hybrid style which is more comfortable. Today even girls started wearing cargo pants and there are specially made pants available for them. Multiple use cargoes are the latest among the cargo clothing. There are trousers that could be used as shorts and pants just be removing the bottom piece which is attached to the upper one with zippers. From minimal pocket range to multiple pockets, the range varies.

Most interesting about cargo trousers is that they come with affordable price tags. Even though there are costlier ones, cargo pants are available from 500 Indian rupees onwards. They give you a sizzling look when used with T-shirts or casual shirts.
