Practical and casual - Cargo shorts

Whether for military style or outdoor activities, there are many reasons why men's cargo-style shorts belong in a well-sorted wardrobe. Characteristic of trekking shorts are the many patch side pockets. In them, your phone, change, or pocket knife are quickly stowed and always at hand during hikes, climbs, or bike tours. To ensure nothing gets lost, most cargo pants have pockets that can be closed with a zipper or Velcro and a button. Thanks to robust materials like cotton and functional synthetic fibers, Indicode cargo shorts are particularly durable, so they can withstand almost any adventure unscathed. But it's not just their functional comfort that makes cargo-style shorts so popular. In beige and olive green or with a camouflage pattern, they are popular basics for authentic military looks.

Leisure & Outdoor: Combining Cargo Bermuda Shorts

Cargo pants are among the uncomplicated trousers that you can style in many different ways with variety. Robust fabrics make the casual shorts durable and provide comfortable wear for a wide range of activities:

Summer in the City: Cargo shorts for urban everyday life

It's no secret that cargo-style Bermuda shorts have long found their firm place in the summer urban jungle. The casual pants accompany you to meetings in the park or beer garden, and you also cut a good figure in cargo shorts on vacation.

For city strolls or dates, chino cargo shorts are a good choice. They combine the style of elegant chino trousers with the casualness of trekking trousers. Combined with a polo shirt and moccasins, they create a modern outfit.
For a get-together with friends, you'll be perfectly dressed in loose-fitting camouflage cargo shorts. Together with an oversized shirt and sneakers, the military look is complete.
On vacation, you make a fashion statement with cargo shorts with a Hawaii print. Fashion-forward individuals wear patterned shorts in a pattern mix with a striped shirt. A combination of patterned pants and a solid-colored top is always stylish.

Out in nature: Cargo shorts for outdoor activities

Whether hiking, trekking, fishing, or camping, with a pair of short cargo pants, you are perfectly dressed for an outdoor excursion and benefit from functional comfort:

For hikes or climbing tours, shorts in olive and brown tones are uncomplicated companions that move with you. Short cargo pants in subdued colors are resistant to stains and robust thanks to durable materials.
For trekking tours or fishing trips, cargo shorts prove to be functional basics thanks to their many pockets. Instead of in your backpack, you can conveniently store items within reach in the many trouser pockets.

For outdoor activities in the sun, calf-length cargo shorts protect the legs from UV rays or insect bites. In hot temperatures, lighter-colored trousers provide a pleasantly cool wearing sensation.

Cargo pants in different fits

You'll find cargo shorts in slim and loose fits. To ensure you feel completely comfortable, men's shorts should suit your figure. Here's an overview of the different cuts and fits of short cargo pants:

Regular Fit Cargo Shorts

This regular-cut trouser fit looks good on men of every body type. Regular Fit shorts sit casually and conceal a slight belly. A straight leg cut ensures that these short pants flatter men with stronger legs. If the trouser legs are too wide, you can adjust the leg width at the hem on most Indicode cargo shorts.

Slim Fit Cargo Shorts

If you are slim, slim-fit shorts are a good choice to accentuate your figure. Men with thin legs also benefit from slim-cut trekking shorts, as the patch pockets make the silhouette appear a little wider. Many slim-fit cargo shorts move with you thanks to stretch materials and elastic cuffs and do not slip.

Shorts in various lengths

Indicode cargo shorts are available in knee-length or calf-length fits. Short shorts are the right length when they end at knee height. 3/4-length cargo shorts reach below the knee. Calf-length men's trousers look particularly good on tall men. Shorter trousers visually lengthen and are recommended if you are a little shorter. Combine short cargo pants sportily with high-top sneakers or robustly with boots. Calf-length shorts look great with flat sneakers.
