The shape of the range of bottoms
At That’s A Awful Lot Of Cough Syrup, bottoms are the quieter half of the catalogue, and they repay a slow read. Three groups take in the range: 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. The groups are priced differently, cut from a different cloth and sized on a different basis. The brand publishes fabric weights and blends on most product pages, which is more than many independent labels bother with, and those https://awfullottacoughsyrup.com/product-category/shorts/ numbers are the most useful thing to read before you commit. One chart covering every fit is what it does not publish. Sizing and what each pair sits well beside come after the groups, which the sections below take in turn.
Daily fleece: the Classic Cough Syrup Sweatpants
The Classic Cough Syrup Sweatpants anchor the category and are the pair to look at first. What the brand publishes 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. Fourteen ounces runs heavier than a standard gym sweat, so they hold their shape rather than going slack after a few washes. Short and unambiguous, the published fit note reads: 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. If you only ever own one pair of awful lot of cough syrup bottoms, this is the one.
The printed and dyed sweatpants
The leg turns into a print surface in a small group of sweatpants beside the classic pair. Current names include 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. The flare cuts stand apart, opening through the lower leg instead of tapering, and they read differently over a shoe. 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. 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. Treat the 14 oz figure as specific to the classic pair, because the brand does not publish a weight for every one of them.
Workwear bottoms: Dickies cuts, carpenter pants and denim
The third group is the one buyers overlook, and 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. At the brand’s own store the Cough Syrup Loose Fit Dickies Pants run about $250 and the Glocc Dickies Pants about $300, both checked in September 2026. The ALOCS Carpenter Pants are offered in black, blue and tan at about $300 each, and the denim collection holds a single piece: the Double Cup Cargo Shorts at about $150, marked down from $300. What the page 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. This corner holds the thickest construction detail, yet a thats a awful lot of cough syrup search rarely lands here.
Shorts, and where they belong in the same family
Barely seasonal in a Los Angeles label, shorts behave like a fourth group. The Awful Lot Of Respect Cuhh Shorts sit at about $100 and the Women’s Booty Shorts at about $60, so this shelf spans a wider range than the sweatpants do. Most alocs shorts are priced at about $150 as of September 2026: 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 Double Cup Cargo Shorts are the collection’s only denim piece and are sized by waist rather than by letter. The natural companion to the fleece pants is the Classic Sweat Shorts, built from the same vocabulary rather than the denim one. One thing worth saying plainly: the brand never uses the word jorts, so denim cargo shorts is the name to search on.
How the brand sizes bottoms
The commonest source of a wasted order is here, so read this part twice. Small through extra-large appears on nearly every style and 3XL a smaller group of products, on an apparel ladder that runs XS to 3XL. Set as the default, true to size is the note carried by the classic sweatpants, hoodie and tee, while a handful of styles publish their own instruction. Waist measurement covers denim and workwear 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. The brand’s own sizing pages render without any chart content as of September 2026, so a measurement table you find for alocs clothing elsewhere is a third party’s reconstruction rather than a published figure.
Every bottom at a glance
The table below gathers what the brand itself publishes and nothing more. Because stock and pricing both move constantly here, the prices, which are the figures shown at its own store as of September 2026, should be re-checked. Because it tells you whether you are choosing a letter or a waist measurement, the sizing basis column matters most. When a cell reads not published, the brand simply does not state a weight or blend for that style. Read apparel sizes as the XS to 3XL ladder and waist as the 28 to 44 range. Read the price column as a band rather than a quote.

What goes with what
Pairing here is an exercise in restraint, because the graphics already do the talking. A printed sweatpant calls for a plain top, and a printed awful lot of cough syrup tee or hoodie wants a quiet bottom, usually the classic fleece pair in one colour. Garment-dyed denim with visible pocket construction, the cargo shorts read as a statement themselves and sit better under a blank tee. The workwear trousers are the most flexible pieces exactly because they are the least decorated, so the Dickies cuts and the carpenter pants carry a loud top without argument. The easiest route for building a set is matching a hoodie and sweatpants from the same named capsule. Colour is the simple part: black and yellow are the signature pairing, and the woven label supplies enough yellow on its own.
What to know before buying in 2026
Stock, not price, is the real constraint on this category. Selling 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. The shops are at 7669 Melrose Avenue and 312 West 5th Street in Los Angeles, plus one on Almeda Road in Houston. Markdowns do 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. Check the yellow woven label, the published fabric weight and the product name against the brand’s own catalogue before you accept a pair as genuine. Every price quoted here was accurate in September 2026 and will move.
