The shape of the bottoms range
The quieter half of the range at That’s A Awful Lot Of Cough Syrup is the bottoms, and they reward a slow read. Sorted into three groups, the range holds heavyweight fleece sweatpants for daily wear, printed and dyed pairs carrying the same artwork Awful Lot of Cough Syrup streetwear as the shirts, and workwear trousers built on Dickies bodies and denim. On most product pages the brand publishes fabric weights and blends, more than many independent labels bother with, and those numbers are the most useful thing to read before you commit. Every group is priced differently, cut from a different cloth and sized on a different basis. There is no single chart covering every fit. The sections below work through the groups in turn, then cover sizing and what each pair sits well beside.
Everyday fleece: the Classic Cough Syrup Sweatpants
Start with the Classic Cough Syrup Sweatpants, the pair that anchors the category. What the brand states 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. Because fourteen ounces is heavier than a standard gym sweat, they hold their shape rather than going slack after a few washes. The fit note is published in plain terms: this style fits true to size. Reckon on 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. This is the one to own if one pair of awful lot of cough syrup bottoms is all you want.
The printed and dyed pairs
The leg becomes 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. 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. Widening through the lower leg instead of tapering, the flare cuts are the outlier and read differently over a shoe. Since a weight is not published for every one of them, the 14 oz figure belongs to the classic pair alone. In cough syrup clothing the two rarely need to compete, so choosing comes down to whether you want the artwork on your legs or your chest.
The workwear bottoms: Dickies cuts, carpenter pants and denim
The third group is the one buyers overlook, and the most durable thing the label makes. A hard-wearing cloth rather than a soft fashion twill: the brand runs a Dickies line whose published blend is 65% cotton and 35% polyester. The Cough Syrup Loose Fit Dickies Pants are listed at about $250 and the Glocc Dickies Pants at about $300, both checked in September 2026. Offered in black, blue and tan, the ALOCS Carpenter Pants sit 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. Rarely does a thats a awful lot of cough syrup search land here, and yet this corner holds the thickest construction detail.
Shorts, and where they belong in the same family
Hardly seasonal in a Los Angeles label, shorts behave like a fourth group. At about $150 as of September 2026 sit most alocs shorts: 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 Awful Lot Of Respect Cuhh Shorts are about $100 and the Women’s Booty Shorts about $60, so this shelf spans a wider range than the sweatpants do. Sized by waist rather than by letter, the Double Cup Cargo Shorts are the only denim piece in the collection. 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.
The way the brand sizes bottoms
Give this part a second read, because it is the commonest source of a wasted order. With small through extra-large on nearly every style and 3XL on a smaller group of products, apparel runs XS to 3XL. Denim and workwear use waist measurement instead, from 28 through 44, which is why the cargo shorts and the carpenter pants never appear in the letter-size list. Published 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. There is no global size chart. The brand’s own sizing pages load 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.
Bottoms, at a glance
What the brand itself publishes, and nothing more, is what the table below collects. 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. A cell reading not published means the brand simply does not state a weight or blend for that style. Letter or waist measurement is what the sizing basis column tells you, and that makes it the column that matters most. Take the price column as a band rather than a quote. The XS to 3XL ladder is what apparel sizes means, and the 28 to 44 range is what waist means.

What pairs with what
Pairing here is an exercise in restraint, because the graphics already do the talking. A quiet bottom, usually the classic fleece pair in one colour, suits a printed awful lot of cough syrup tee or hoodie, just as a plain top suits a printed sweatpant. Being the least decorated, the workwear trousers are the most flexible pieces, so the Dickies cuts and the carpenter pants carry a loud top without argument. Under a blank tee is where the cargo shorts sit best, since garment-dyed denim with visible pocket construction reads as a statement on its own. Matching a hoodie and sweatpants from the same named capsule is the simplest route if you are building a set. Colour is straightforward: black and yellow are the signature pairing, and the woven label supplies enough yellow on its own.
Buying notes, 2026
The real constraint on this category is stock, not price. A large share of size variants sit out of stock at any moment, because the brand sells in batch drops to its own online store and through its shops, so the pair you want may not be there this week. Those shops are at 7669 Melrose Avenue and 312 West 5th Street in Los Angeles, plus one on Almeda Road in Houston. Before accepting a pair as genuine, check the yellow woven label, the published fabric weight and the product name against the brand’s own catalogue. 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. September 2026 was when every price quoted here was current, and they will move.
