Double Cup Cargo Shorts: the spec sheet in full
Exactly one 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 rise is mid. The color comes from a garment dye, applied through what the brand calls a double dye process to mimic sun-fading, so two pairs in the same colorway will not be identical. Construction details are specific: double-layer double cup pockets at the back, cargo pockets at the side, a button fly, and a black alocs shorts custom leather patch. The name is a straight reference to the brand’s own cup motif, carried over from the graphics into the pocket build. Grey, Black/Green, Purple and Red make up the four colorways listed, and the size run goes by waist rather than by letter. About $150 is where the price sits 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
That single denim style sits inside a much wider shorts offering, and the wider offering is where most alocs shorts searches actually end up. Three variations on the same graphic idea, the Glocc Shorts, Mexico Glocc Shorts and USA Glocc Shorts, sit in the main tier at about $150. You also get 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. Rounding out that price tier are the Awful Lot Of Chiefin Heavily Shorts and the Classic Sweat Shorts, the sweat short being the obvious pairing for the matching fleece bottoms in the catalogue. Below that tier, 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. The brand also runs 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 figure here was what the brand’s own store showed as of September 2026, and drops bring re-pricing at this label.
Beyond the shorts: denim and workwear
Came for the denim? the shorts are not the end of it, they are just 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. As a full-length companion for the cargo short, those carpenter pants are the closest the catalogue gets, and they carry the same waist-based sizing logic. A workwear line built on Dickies bodies sits next to the denim, taking in 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. The blend gives it away, workwear and denim being 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. 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.
The whole lineup at a glance
Only what the brand publishes goes into the table below, and nothing beyond it. 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. Fit notes are per product, because this label publishes them per product and they are not uniform across the catalogue. The denim short is the only entry with a full published measurement table, which 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: the waist matters, not the letter
Denim and workwear at this label 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. The inseam grows half an inch per size, which keeps the short roughly the same length on the leg as the waist grows rather than dropping toward the knee. This style carries explicit fit guidance: 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 rest of the shorts rail mostly does not publish measurements, which means the per-product fit sentence is the only guidance you get. The brand publishes no global size chart and no washing instructions anywhere on its store, which is worth stating plainly, so do not assume a care routine from the garment-dye alone.
What people actually type into search
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. Nowhere does the brand use it, not on any product page and not in any product name. The Double Cup Cargo Shorts are what searchers mean by it, being the only denim short in the catalogue, so the useful translation is simply that the jorts everybody is asking about are the Double Cup Cargo Shorts. The brand name itself follows the same pattern, getting 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. Checking the garment is what works: 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. The Los Angeles stores at 7669 Melrose Ave and 312 W 5th St and the Houston store at 5410 Almeda Rd are there for anyone shopping alocs clothing in person, and anyone shopping online should re-check the current price before buying, since everything quoted here is a September 2026 snapshot.
