 What up fellas, it's your boy Johnny, and today it is your day to go pick up your weapon, put on your helmet, because we are going to war. War with these fuckboys. Alright, I'm just playing, we aren't doing that. Today, I'm gonna show you guys how to style the cargo pants. So speaking of war, cargo pants were worn by the American military in the 1940s. They're just regular pants with pockets on the sides, usually above the knees, and they were originally designed to hold ammo and gear. And nowadays it has made its way into fashion, going from trendy back to shit, back to trendy again, because of the modern twist. Let's talk about what to look out for. So there are a ton of different types of cargos, personally I like the ones that keep it subtle and have its own touches to the military aesthetic. So there are some with unique drawstrings, straps, different designed pockets, a bunch of zippers in different areas, and much much more. Some of them are cut like skinny jeans, and some of them are baggy but tapered down for a modern look. I like both. My favorite ones are the utility looking cargos. These touch face in both the military aesthetic and the tech wear aesthetic, and it is just fire man. And so now, let's talk about how to rock them. Typically it depends on the cut, but with cargos you want to rock your top with more of an oversized look. It just doesn't look right to me wearing a fitted shirt and some baggy cargos. Now if the cargos are skinny then that's a totally different story. But if you're like me, you really dig the tech wear look, and with tech wear usually everything is oversized. And rolling with the oversized look, the great thing about it is that with your fit, it gradually tapers down to show off the sneaker. And with the kicks, like I said earlier, cargos are really heavily involved in tech wear, so you're gonna want to roll with runners. Now that's just to keep it safe, because most cargos that I have are joggers. And what looks great with joggers are low top sneakers, typically runners. However, this does not limit your options man. I personally like to wear the Air Jordan ones with my cargos. And I don't know, there's just something about it. Jordan ones and cargos go together like airpods and rich people. Yo David, I told you to follow all those spreadsheets man. Wait, what? I'm sorry, I don't speak broke though. Another great way you can show off your kicks is wearing long socks. This allows you to even more seamlessly transition your fit to where all the ladies look at your kicks. It's my favorite way to do it because you can do a subtle flex by rocking a pair of off-white socks, whatever you're feeling man. But don't ever wear Adidas socks with your Nike kicks. Fuck's wrong with you man. Another thing that you can wear and one of my favorite things that's trending right now are crossbody and sling bags. Again, most cargo pants really give off that military tech wear vibe, that utility look, so you're gonna want to double down on that. The cargo pockets are meant for holding shit. And what else allows you to hold extra shit? Exactly, crossbody bags man. Love it or hate it bro, these joints are actually useful as hell bro. Oh fuck. I keep all my things in here. Keys, wallet, metro card, my AirPods, some gum and this shit will never get stolen because it stays stuck onto my body. If there was one accessory that goes with cargos, it is definitely the crossbody bag. And last but not least, with all aspects of your outfit, focus on your color blocking. You guys already know that color blocking is one of the most important things to compose a fire fit. So just to keep it simple, you really want to focus on contrasting colors and contrasting tones. Contrasting colors refers to opposite sides of the color wheel and contrasting tones basically just means light or dark. And there are other ways like the monochrome look, which is basically all black or all cream. You guys get the point. So for me with these camel cargos, they have a bunch of tints. They have a bunch of tints. If they have a bunch of tints, what the fuck? Why is this so hard to say? It sounds like I'm saying tints. They have a bunch of tints of green and the opposite of green is red. So I can decide to wear a top with hints of red or I can rock a pair of red kicks like the red ones. And if I'm going to wear my black cargos, well, I'm going to rock with the all black tech wear look. And because of that, I'm going to focus on showing off my kicks. And if I'm not going to do the all black look, I'm just going to rock a simple pair of kicks with a contrasting top. Likewise, with lighter cargos, focus on a contrasting pair of sneakers or top. And I'm sure you guys are wondering where I get my cargos from. I've gotten them from Hyperdanum and the Richie Lee Collection. But most of these come from our sponsor, BlackTaylor. Now I've purchased cargos from them before and I really fucked with them. So I decided to reach out to them and they sent me two more pairs. And they aren't paying me to say this or make this video, but they did send me some pairs, so it's technically sponsored. So BlackTaylor is one of those online stores that focuses on affordable streetwear. And cargos are their thing. I really like their aesthetic. They have unique designs of cargos.
