Cough Syrup Mesh Shorts Sizing Guide Style and Care Notes

The shape the bottoms range takes

Bottoms make up the quieter half of the catalogue at That’s A Awful Lot Of Cough Syrup, and they reward a slow read. Split into three groups, the range holds 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. A different price, a different cloth sets apart each group, which is oversized shorts also cut from a different cloth and sized on a different basis. On most product pages the brand publishes fabric weights and blends, more than many independent labels bother with, and those numbers are the most useful thing to read before you commit. A single chart covering every fit is what it does not publish. What follows takes the groups in turn, then cover sizing and what each pair sits well beside.

Daily fleece: the Classic Cough Syrup Sweatpants

Begin with the Classic Cough Syrup Sweatpants, the pair that anchors the category. Plainly published, the construction is 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. The fit note is published in four words: this style fits true to size. They are priced at about $200 at the brand’s own store as of September 2026, level with the core hoodies, and a label that drops weekly moves its pricing without notice. This is the one to own if you only ever buy one pair of awful lot of cough syrup bottoms.

Printed and dyed pairs

Beside the classic pair sits a small group of sweatpants that treat the leg as a print surface. The current names run to 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. Here is where the graphic habits land on a bottom: large screen prints, hand-dyed and printed in Los Angeles, and the wordmark that carries the tees. Because they open through the lower leg instead of tapering, the flare cuts are the outlier and read differently over a shoe. Treat the 14 oz figure as specific to the classic pair, because the brand does not publish a weight for every one of them. Choosing comes down to whether you want the artwork on your legs or your chest, because in cough syrup clothing the two rarely need to compete.

Workwear bottoms, Dickies cuts, carpenter pants and denim

Overlooked by buyers, the third group is also the most durable thing the label makes. Across the Dickies line the published blend is 65% cotton and 35% polyester, a hard-wearing cloth rather than a soft fashion twill. The Cough Syrup Loose Fit Dickies Pants sit at about $250 and the Glocc Dickies Pants at about $300, both checked in September 2026. The ALOCS Carpenter Pants run at about $300 each in black, blue and tan, while the denim collection holds a single piece: the Double Cup Cargo Shorts at about $150, marked down from $300. What the brand publishes is 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. A thats a awful lot of cough syrup search rarely lands here, yet this corner holds the thickest construction detail.

Shorts, and their place in the same family

Shorts work like a fourth group, and in a Los Angeles label they are barely seasonal. The Awful Lot Of Respect Cuhh Shorts are about $100 and the Women’s Booty Shorts about $60, so this shelf spans a wider range than the sweatpants do. At about $150 as of September 2026 sit most alocs shorts: 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. The single denim piece in the collection is the Double Cup Cargo Shorts, sized by waist rather than by letter. The Classic Sweat Shorts are the natural companion to the fleece pants, built from the same vocabulary rather than the denim one. Plainly put: the brand never uses the word jorts, so denim cargo shorts is the name to search on.

How bottoms are sized here

Read this section twice, because it is the commonest source of a wasted order. Small through extra-large covers nearly every style and 3XL a smaller group of products, on an apparel ladder that runs XS to 3XL. True to size is the published default, and the classic sweatpants, hoodie and tee all carry that exact note, while a handful of styles publish their own instruction. Denim and workwear use waist measurement instead, from 28 through 44, which is why the cargo shorts and the carpenter pants never appear in the letter-size list. The brand publishes no global size chart. Its own sizing pages render without any chart content as of September 2026, which makes a measurement table you find for alocs clothing elsewhere a third party’s reconstruction rather than a published figure.

Bottoms, at a glance

What the brand itself publishes, and nothing more, is what the table below collects. 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. Letter or waist measurement is what the sizing basis column tells you, and that makes it the column that matters most. A range rather than a quote is how to read the price column. The XS to 3XL ladder is what apparel sizes means, and the 28 to 44 range is what waist means.

What goes with what

Pairing here is an exercise in restraint that rewards holding back, because the graphics already do the talking. 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. Being the least decorated, the workwear trousers are the most flexible pieces, so the Dickies cuts and the carpenter pants carry a loud top without argument. Beneath a blank tee is where the cargo shorts sit best, since garment-dyed denim with visible pocket construction reads as a statement on its own. Matching a hoodie and sweatpants from the same named capsule is the simplest route if you are building a set. The signature pairing is black and yellow, colour is straightforward, and the woven label supplies enough yellow on its own.

Buying notes, 2026

Stock, not price, is the real constraint on this category. Working in batch drops to its own online store and through its shops, the brand leaves a large share of size variants 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. 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. 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. Every price quoted here was current in September 2026 and will move.
