We might want to ignore it, but whether we like it or not, cargo pants have made a comeback in a big way and seem like they’re here to stay.
We haven’t seen them worn so frequently, or by so many celebs, since the ’90s, but they’re back with a vengeance, and they don’t look like they’re going anywhere anytime soon.
It seems there’s something in the water when it comes to 90s “mom style” – the slouchy, big pants, the babydoll tee, the oversized button-up thrown on top, the messy bun – and the slouchy, big pants everyone is currently gravitating toward are cargos.
I can’t say I’m shocked or particularly upset about it – cargo pants are super comfortable! What does feel upsetting is that now that cargo pants are back in style, they’ve also become increasingly more expensive and harder to find.
Fortunately, I’m a hardcore bargain hunter, and I’ve done my best to find cargo pants that are both affordable and actually stylish.
