Double Cup Cargo Shorts: what the spec sheet says
The Double Cup Cargo Shorts is the whole denim collection at That’s A Awful Lot Of Cough Syrup right now, which currently holds exactly one product. 14 oz denim is the fabric, a mid-weight that holds a leg shape rather than collapsing, and the rise is mid. Two alocs graphic hoodie pairs in the same colorway will not be identical, because the color comes from a garment dye applied through what the brand calls a double dye process to mimic sun-fading. Double-layer double cup pockets at the back, cargo pockets at the side, a button fly, and a custom leather patch: the construction details are specific. Straight off the brand’s own cup motif comes the name, carried over from the graphics into the pocket build. The size run goes by waist rather than by letter, and four colorways are listed, Grey, Black/Green, Purple and Red. Price sits at about $150 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, style by style
Denim gets the headline, yet it is a single style inside a much wider shorts offering, and that is where most alocs shorts searches actually end up. The main tier lands at about $150 and contains the Glocc Shorts, Mexico Glocc Shorts and USA Glocc Shorts, a set of three variations on the same graphic idea. The Awful Lot Of Stincs Shorts and the Awful Lot Of Stincs Buddha Shorts sit alongside, 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 out 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 arrive at about $100 and the Women’s Booty Shorts at about $60, and that is what gives the category its $60 to $150 band. The brand also keeps a Mystery Shorts item at about $50 as a standing clearance mechanic, so the floor can dip below that band when stock needs clearing. Every one of these figures was what the brand’s own store showed as of September 2026, and this label re-prices with drops.
The other denim and workwear pieces
Denim buyers should know the shorts are not the end of it, even 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 are the closest thing the catalogue has to a full-length companion for the cargo short, and they carry the same waist-based sizing logic. Beside the denim sits 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 giveaway that workwear and denim are different propositions here: one is a hard-wearing poly-cotton twill, the other is raw weight in cotton. The build signals stay constant across all of it, and the signature yellow woven label appears garment after garment in the brand’s own copy. Made in Los Angeles, hand-dyed and printed there, and screen-printed there is what the product copy also states, and that is a real cost input at these prices.
The lineup at a glance
The table below sets out what the brand publishes, and nothing beyond it. Where a product page gives no fabric weight or flat measurement, the cell says so rather than guessing at a number. The prices here are the brand’s own store figures as of September 2026 and will move with drops, restocks and sale periods. Fit notes stay per product, since 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. Open the individual listing for the style you want before you pick a size, and read the table as a shortlist.

Sizing: go by the waist, not 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. There is a full flat table on the Double Cup Cargo Shorts: 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 comes with this style: it runs true to size, and for an oversized fit you size up one. That one step is the whole instruction, so going up two on a 14 oz denim body will read as baggy rather than oversized. The per-product fit sentence is the only guidance you get across the rest of the shorts rail, which mostly does not publish measurements. It is also worth stating plainly that 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 actually searching for
The word jorts is what a large share of the traffic looking for denim shorts from this label arrives typing, and it needs handling carefully. The brand does not use the word, 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 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. A lot of stores selling cough syrup clothing under those spellings have no connection to the label at all, which is why it matters practically. The checks that hold up are garment ones: 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 can use the Los Angeles stores at 7669 Melrose Ave and 312 W 5th St or the Houston store at 5410 Almeda Rd, and anyone shopping online should re-check the current price before buying, since everything quoted here is a September 2026 snapshot.
