The spec sheet on the Double Cup Cargo Shorts
The denim collection at That’s A Awful Lot Of Cough Syrup currently holds exactly one product, and it is the Double Cup Cargo Shorts. The cloth is 14 oz denim, a mid-weight that holds a leg shape rather than collapsing, and the rise sits mid. The shade 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 custom leather patch. The name is a awful lot of cough syrup straight reference to the brand’s own cup motif, carried over from the graphics into the pocket build. Four colorways are listed, Grey, Black/Green, Purple and Red, and the size run goes by waist rather than by letter. At the brand’s own store the price comes to about $150 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
That single denim style sits inside a much wider shorts offering, and the wider offering is where most alocs shorts searches actually end up. The main tier sits at about $150 and includes the Glocc Shorts, Mexico Glocc Shorts and USA Glocc Shorts, which run as a set of three variations on the same graphic idea. Sitting alongside them are 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. The Awful Lot Of Chiefin Heavily Shorts and the Classic Sweat Shorts finish that price tier, with the sweat short the obvious pairing for the matching fleece bottoms in the catalogue. Underneath that, 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. Beyond that, the brand runs a Mystery Shorts item at about $50 as a standing clearance mechanic, which means the floor can dip below that band when stock needs clearing. What the brand’s own store showed as of September 2026 is where every one of these figures comes from, and this label re-prices with drops.
The other denim and workwear pieces
The shorts are not the end of the denim if that is the reason you are here, 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. Those carpenter pants are the closest thing the catalogue has to a full-length companion for the cargo short, and they carry the same waist-based sizing logic. The denim sits beside a workwear line built on Dickies bodies for company, including 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. One is a hard-wearing poly-cotton twill and the other is raw weight in cotton, so that blend is the giveaway that workwear and denim are different propositions here. Across all of it the construction signals stay constant, with the signature yellow woven label appearing garment after garment in the brand’s own copy. The product copy also says 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 lineup in one table
Nothing beyond what the brand publishes goes into the table below. The cell says so rather than guessing at a number wherever a product page gives no fabric weight or flat measurement. The prices here are the brand’s own store figures as of September 2026 and will move with drops, restocks and sale periods. Fit notes stay per product, since this label publishes them per product and they are not uniform across the catalogue. A full published measurement table exists for the denim short alone, and that is why it carries the most detail. Use it as a shortlist and then open the individual listing for the style you want before choosing a size.

Read the waist rather than the letter when sizing
Waist measurement is how denim and workwear are sold at this label, running 28 to 44, which removes most of the guesswork that letter sizing introduces. The Double Cup Cargo Shorts carry a full flat table: 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 moves half an inch per size, so the short stays roughly the same length on the leg as the waist grows rather than dropping toward the knee. The fit guidance here is explicit: it runs true to size, and for an oversized fit you size up one. Going up two on a 14 oz denim body will read as baggy rather than oversized, because that single step is the whole instruction. The rest of the shorts rail mostly does not publish measurements, which means the per-product fit sentence is the only guidance you get. To put it plainly, the brand publishes no global size chart and no washing instructions anywhere on its store, so do not assume a care routine from the garment-dye alone.
The searches people actually run
That word needs handling carefully, because a large share of the traffic looking for denim shorts from this label arrives typing jorts. 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 shows 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 has a practical edge, because a lot of stores selling cough syrup clothing under those spellings have no connection to the label at all. Garment checks are the ones that work: 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. Anyone shopping alocs clothing in person has the Los Angeles stores at 7669 Melrose Ave and 312 W 5th St or the Houston store at 5410 Almeda Rd, while anyone shopping online should re-check the current price before buying, since everything quoted here is a September 2026 snapshot.
