The first time I realized cargo pants might be making a comeback occurred last summer, when stylist Audree Kate pitched me a piece about the controversial clothing item’s potential return. The second moment? When I shopped a chic winter pants piece and stumbled upon pair after pair of cute cargo pants. The third moment—the moment that made contemporary cargos absolutely impossible to ignore—was delivered to me at the hands of Ariana Grande, who stunned in a pair of hot pink cargo pants in the music video for her new single, “7 Rings.”
The third time isn’t just a charm—in the fashion world, it’s the thing that takes something from happenstance to full-on trend. Cargo pants were back, baby. And honestly, I wasn’t mad about it.
Cargo pants have a long sartorial history, their roots firmly planted in skater culture. Call to mind the image of a person wearing cargo pants, and you’re probably picturing a 13-year-old boy clad in a baggy T-shirt and even baggier trousers. One of the last mental images you’re likely to conjure up is that of a street style star (or an endlessly trendy singer) looking hot as hell in a pair of surprisingly structured, surprisingly chic cargos. But that counterintuitive image is way more representative of the current cargo pant landscape.
Cargo pants have made a comeback. They’re genuinely cute. And I, a New York City-based fashion editor, really, really want a pair. Thankfully, retailers have made it super easy for me—and for all of us—to find a pair of cute cargos that meets all our aesthetic needs and desires.
