Cargo pants were originally designed in Britain in 1938 and worn by military personnel as part of their battle dress uniforms (BDUs). Initially, cargo pants featured one pocket on the side thigh and another on the hip, making them both tactful and functional. These were later introduced to the United States during World War II in the mid-1940s. Cargo pants are characterised by large pockets initially designed for military forces to hold maps, field dressings, and other items.Â
Now, cargo pants are a wardrobe staple worn all across the globe, offering versatility and a cool, militant vibe. Here are three ways to style yours!
Stand Out in Militant Style

Make a strong and coordinated style statement in the Aeronautica Militare Badge Cargo Trousers in Green and the Aeronautica Militare 2 Tones Golfer in Military Green/White. This combination perfectly balances casual and sharp, while the green tones and white accents on the golfer add just enough contrast to make your fit pop. Accessorise with the Aeronautica Militare Embroidery Cap in Green, and complete your look with the Aeronautica Militare Logo Mix Trainer Green/Olive.
Turn Heads with a Layered Look

Cold days call for layering. Pair the Aeronautica Militare 3 Pockets Cargo Trousers in Green with the Aeronautica Militare Chest Badge T-Shirt in Jet Black and the Aeronautica Militare Archivio Over Shirt Camouflage for a bold, layered look that is fresh and interesting while adding warmth.

Go Monochrome for a Sleek, Unified Look

When in doubt, go monochromatic. Pair the Aeronautica Militare 3 Pockets Cargo Trousers in Green with the Aeronautica Militare 100 Years Crew Sweatshirt in Dark Green for a sleek, unified look. Accessorise with the Aeronautica Militare Woven Belt in Military Green, the Aeronautica Militare Tricolori Crew Socks in Green, the Aeronautica Militare Embroidery Cap in Jet Black and the Aeronautica Militare Backpack in Military Green to create a seamless and effortlessly chic look.
