The Cutaway

The shape the bottoms range takes

At That’s A Awful Lot Of Cough Syrup, bottoms are the quieter half of the catalogue, and a slow read pays off. A trio of groups make up the range: heavyweight fleece sweatpants for daily wear, printed and dyed pairs carrying the same artwork as the shirts, and workwear trousers built on Dickies bodies and denim. The brand publishes fabric weights and blends on most product pages, which is more than many independent labels bother with, and those numbers are the most useful thing to read before you commit. Each of the three has its own pricing, its own cloth and its own sizing basis. A single chart covering awfullottacoughsyrup.com/product-category/shorts every fit is what it does not publish. The sections below take the groups in turn, then cover sizing and what each pair sits well beside.

Daily fleece: the Classic Cough Syrup Sweatpants

The Classic Cough Syrup Sweatpants hold down the category and are the pair to look at first. The brand publishes the construction plainly: a 14 oz fleece made of 80% cotton and 20% recycled polyester, with the signature Cough Syrup logo screen printed across the front and up the back legs. They hold their shape rather than going slack after a few washes, because fourteen ounces is heavier than a standard gym sweat. At the brand’s own store they come in at about $200 as of September 2026, level with the core hoodies, and a label that drops weekly moves its pricing without notice. The fit note is published in plain terms: this style fits true to size. Buying just one pair of awful lot of cough syrup bottoms means this one.

The printed and dyed sweatpants

A small group of sweatpants sits beside the classic pair and treats the leg as a print surface. The names in stock include the Classic Flare Sweatpants, the ALOCS Athletic Dept. Sweatpants and the Blurred Lines Sweatpants, all at about $200 as of September 2026, plus the Flare Classic Sweapants at about $150, a spelling that is the brand’s own. The label’s graphic habits land on a bottom here: large screen prints, hand-dyed and printed in Los Angeles, and the wordmark that carries the tees. The flare cuts are the odd ones out, opening through the lower leg instead of tapering, and they read differently over a shoe. Since a weight is not published for every one of them, the 14 oz figure belongs to the classic pair alone. Legs or chest is really the choice, because in cough syrup clothing the two rarely need to compete.

The workwear bottoms: Dickies cuts, carpenter pants and denim

The most durable thing the label makes belongs to the third group, which is the one buyers overlook. The Cough Syrup Loose Fit Dickies Pants are listed at about $250 and the Glocc Dickies Pants at about $300, both checked in September 2026. A hard-wearing cloth rather than a soft fashion twill: the brand runs a Dickies line whose published blend is 65% cotton and 35% polyester. The ALOCS Carpenter Pants are offered in black, blue and tan at about $300 each, and the denim collection holds a single piece: the Double Cup Cargo Shorts at about $150, marked down from $300. Those are published as a mid-rise 14 oz denim, garment-dyed through a double dye process meant to mimic sun-fading, with double cup pockets at the back, cargo pockets at the side and a custom leather patch. This corner holds the thickest construction detail, yet a thats a awful lot of cough syrup search rarely lands here.

Shorts, and where they belong in the same family

Barely seasonal in a Los Angeles label, shorts behave like a fourth group. The Awful Lot Of Respect Cuhh Shorts sit at about $100 and the Women’s Booty Shorts at about $60, so this shelf spans a wider range than the sweatpants do. Most alocs shorts come in at about $150 as of September 2026: the Glocc Shorts and their Mexico and USA variants, the Awful Lot Of Stincs Shorts, the ALOCS x Stinc Team Dragon Shorts and the Classic Sweat Shorts. Drawing on the same vocabulary rather than the denim one, the Classic Sweat Shorts are the natural companion to the fleece pants. The single denim piece in the collection is the Double Cup Cargo Shorts, sized by waist rather than by letter. Worth saying plainly: the brand never uses the word jorts, so denim cargo shorts is the name to search on.

The way the brand sizes bottoms

A second reading pays here for this part, because it is the commonest source of a wasted order. The apparel ladder runs XS to 3XL, with small through extra-large on nearly every style and 3XL on a smaller group of products. The published default is true to size, and the classic sweatpants, hoodie and tee all carry that exact note, while a handful of styles publish their own instruction. Waist measurement covers denim and workwear instead, from 28 through 44, which is why the cargo shorts and the carpenter pants never appear in the letter-size list. The brand’s own sizing pages render without any chart content as of September 2026, so a measurement table you find for alocs clothing elsewhere is a third party’s reconstruction rather than a published figure. There is no global size chart.

Every bottom at a glance

The table below collects what the brand itself publishes and nothing more. Check the prices again: they are the figures shown at its own store as of September 2026, and stock and pricing both move constantly here. A cell reading not published means the brand simply does not state a weight or blend for that style. Because it tells you whether you are choosing a letter or a waist measurement, the sizing basis column matters most. Treat the price column as a band rather than a quote. Read apparel sizes as the XS to 3XL ladder and waist as the 28 to 44 range.

What sits well with what

Because the graphics already do the talking, pairing here is an exercise in restraint. Plain on top with a printed sweatpant, and a quiet bottom with a printed awful lot of cough syrup tee or hoodie, usually the classic fleece pair in one colour. Garment-dyed denim with visible pocket construction, the cargo shorts read as a statement themselves and sit better under a blank tee. The Dickies cuts and the carpenter pants carry a loud top without argument, because the workwear trousers are the most flexible pieces precisely for being the least decorated. The signature pairing is black and yellow, colour is straightforward, and the woven label supplies enough yellow on its own. The easiest route for building a set is matching a hoodie and sweatpants from the same named capsule.

What to know before buying in 2026

Price is not the real constraint; stock is. The brand sells in batch drops through its own online store and its shops, and a large share of size variants sit out of stock at any moment, so the pair you want may not be there this week. You will find those shops at 7669 Melrose Avenue and 312 West 5th Street in Los Angeles, plus one on Almeda Road in Houston. Markdowns happen and are worth waiting for, with the cargo shorts at about $150 from $300 the clearest example, and mystery items run as standing clearance, including mystery sweatpants at about $100 against $200. The three checks come before accepting a pair as genuine: the yellow woven label, the published fabric weight and the product name against the brand’s own catalogue. September 2026 was when every price quoted here was current, and they will move.
