UNFRM COTTON RIPSTOP PANT (OLIVE)

About this find

These olive pants from Alpha Industries are built around their pockets. There are two front patch pockets and two back patch pockets, so you have four places to carry small things as you go about your day. Patch pockets are stitched onto the outside of the pant, which gives the design a practical, utility look.

The fit is relaxed, and the length ends at the ankle. At the hem, a drawcord lets you adjust the leg opening, so you can cinch it in close or leave it loose, depending on the shoes you wear. The waist closes with a button and a zipper.

The body is made from 100% cotton ripstop. The fabric choice fits the work-inspired look of the olive color and the patch pockets. These pants are recommended for light weather, which makes them a good match for mild days rather than heavy cold. Think spring and early fall.

Olive pairs easily with neutral colors like white, black, and gray. Try a plain white tee and a dark jacket for a simple outfit. If you prefer a roomier hem, leave the drawcord relaxed, and if you want a cleaner line near your shoes, pull it in a little. Both ways work with this cut.
