Cargo jeans don't have to trade the slim line for the pockets. This pair keeps a close, tapered leg while still carrying the utility detailing, no bulky, boxy cut required.

The details that make it work

An ultra-stretch cotton-blend denim moves with you through the knee and seat, which is what makes a slim leg wearable with cargo pockets in the first place, a rigid denim in this cut fights you when you sit or bend. Twin cargo pockets at the thigh are set flat against the leg rather than boxed out, so the slim silhouette holds. Machine washable, cold wash recommended to protect the stretch fibres over time.

Where it fits in

With a plain tee and trainers for the days that need pockets more than they need a dress code, or under an oversized jacket when the rest of the outfit is doing the loud work.
