The Outdoor Flap Pocket Side Cargo Trousers in Green deliver the wide-leg silhouette that's been central to fashion for the last several seasons without the excessive volume that makes some wide-leg styles look like they're wearing the wearer. The cut is architectural: high waist to create leg length, generous leg width from hip to hem for the fluid drape effect, and a hem that falls at a length designed for wearing with a modest heel. Available in Green, Black, Khaki.

Fit & Sizing
Size to your hip measurement — the waist is secondary because the silhouette is relaxed by design. Length matters more with a wide leg than with any other cut: the hem needs to reach at or near the floor for the proportions to work. At a standard inseam, this style works for most people 5'5" and above with a flat shoe; shorter frames may need either a heel or a hem taken up 4–5cm. If you're ordering to wear flat, factor in the hem when choosing. Sizes: L, XL, 2XL, 3XL, 4XL.
How to Style
A fitted or tucked-in top is non-negotiable — the wide leg creates volume below the waist, and the top needs to contrast that. A loose or oversized top over wide legs reads shapeless. For petite frames, a cropped top that ends at or above the waistband is the most elongating choice. For shoes: a heel is ideal; if wearing flat, make sure the hem is long enough to nearly touch the floor — a hemmed wide-leg pant worn flat with shoes fully visible can look cut-off.
Fabric & Care
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle — this is the single most important step for extending the life of any fashion fabric. Avoid high-heat tumble drying for the first 5–10 washes, which is when colour and fibre integrity are most vulnerable. Turn inside-out before washing to protect the outer face from friction and uneven fading.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before you buy
Wide leg pants often look different in person — how do I size the Outdoor Flap Pocket Side Cargo Trousers in Green correctly? +
Size to your hip measurement — the waist is less critical because the silhouette is relaxed by design. The length matters more than you'd think: wide leg pants need the hem to reach at or just above the floor to look intentional rather than cut-off. At a standard inseam length these work well for women 5'5" and above with flat shoes; shorter frames typically need either a heel or a simple hem taken up 4–5cm. If you're ordering to wear flat, factor in the hem when choosing.
The Outdoor Flap Pocket Side Cargo Trousers in Green are non-stretch cotton — how do they feel after a long day of wear? +
Non-stretch cotton has a structured, slightly board-like feel when new that softens significantly after 2–3 wears and washes. By the end of the first week the fibers relax and the fabric drapes against the body rather than holding its shape away from it. What non-stretch cotton does well that stretch blends can't match: it holds the cut of the pant through a full day without sagging at the knee or seat.
Do the flap pockets on the Outdoor Flap Pocket Side Cargo Trousers in Green add visible bulk to the hips and thighs? +
When empty, the flap pockets lie flat against the thigh — they don't create visible volume or silhouette distortion. When loaded with a phone and wallet the pocket will have some dimension, but because the flap covers the opening, it reads as structured rather than lumpy. The pocket placement at mid-thigh rather than the hip means the visual weight sits below the widest point of the body, which actually works in favour of most silhouettes.
Will the Outdoor Flap Pocket Side Cargo Trousers in Green shrink in the wash, and how do I prevent it? +
Cold wash on a gentle cycle and line dry: shrinkage is 0–1% and undetectable in practice. The risk is machine drying on high heat — non-stretch cotton can lose up to a full size in the waist after five cycles of hot-wash-plus-high-heat drying. A single warm wash won't cause noticeable shrinkage and can actually help break in the fabric faster if the stiffness of new cotton bothers you. Turn them inside-out before washing to protect the outer surface and prevent uneven fading in darker colours.
Can the Outdoor Flap Pocket Side Cargo Trousers in Green be worn to a formal work environment or are they strictly smart casual? +
These sit at the boundary of smart casual and business casual — appropriate for creative offices, client meetings in tech or media, and most environments where jeans are acceptable. They're too casual for formal corporate dress codes (law firms, finance, traditional client-facing roles). In a neutral colour (navy, charcoal, black) with a tucked-in blouse, structured blazer, and leather shoes or heels, they read polished in most smart-casual environments.
Do the Outdoor Flap Pocket Side Cargo Trousers in Green work for petite frames or do they need altering? +
At a true petite height (under 5'2") these will likely need a 3–5cm hem taken up — the standard inseam is cut for an average height of around 5'5". Other than length, the proportions work well: the waist and hip measurements scale correctly to petite frames, and the cut doesn't change in a way that looks proportionally wrong. The rise and pocket placement are the more critical details for petite fits: a high rise elongates the leg; a pocket that sits too low (below mid-thigh) can visually shorten an already short.
