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 as the shirts, and workwear trousers built on Dickies bodies alocs mens hoodie and denim. The brand publishes fabric weights and blends on most product pages, which is more than many independent labels bother with, and those numbers are the most useful thing to read before you commit. Each of the three comes with its own pricing, its own cloth and its own sizing basis. It publishes no single chart covering every fit. 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 pair to look at first is the Classic Cough Syrup Sweatpants, which anchor the category. Plainly published, the construction 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. At the brand’s own store they come in at about $200 as of September 2026, level with the core hoodies, and a label that drops weekly moves its pricing without notice. The published fit note is short and unambiguous: this style fits true to size. 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 becomes a print surface in a small group of sweatpants beside the classic pair. The names in stock 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. Because they open through the lower leg instead of tapering, the flare cuts are the outlier and 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. Your legs or your chest is really the choice, because in cough syrup clothing the two rarely need to compete. Read 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
Walked past by buyers, the third group is also the most durable thing the label makes. The Cough Syrup Loose Fit Dickies Pants come in at about $250 and the Glocc Dickies Pants at about $300, both checked in September 2026. Across the Dickies line the published blend is 65% cotton and 35% polyester, a hard-wearing cloth rather than a soft fashion twill. The ALOCS Carpenter Pants come 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. The published description 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 their place in the same family
In a Los Angeles label shorts are barely seasonal, and they behave like a fourth group. The Awful Lot Of Respect Cuhh Shorts are listed at about $100 and the Women’s Booty Shorts at about $60, so this shelf spans a wider range than the sweatpants do. Around $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 single denim piece in the collection is the Double Cup Cargo Shorts, sized by waist rather than by letter. The Classic Sweat Shorts are the obvious companion to the fleece pants, built from the same vocabulary rather than the denim one. The brand never uses the word jorts, so denim cargo shorts is the name to search on.
How bottoms are sized here
A second reading pays here for this part, because it is the commonest source of a wasted order. Apparel is sized XS to 3XL, with small through extra-large on nearly every style and 3XL on a smaller group of products. Denim and workwear are sized by waist measurement instead, from 28 through 44, which is why the cargo shorts and the carpenter pants never appear in the letter-size list. True to size is the published default, and the classic sweatpants, hoodie and tee all carry that exact note, while a handful of styles publish their own instruction. Its own sizing pages render without any chart content as of September 2026, which makes a measurement table you find for alocs clothing elsewhere a third party’s reconstruction rather than a published figure. The brand publishes no global size chart.
The bottoms at a glance
The table below holds what the brand itself publishes and nothing more. Prices are the figures displayed at its own store as of September 2026 and should be re-checked, because stock and pricing both move constantly here. Letter or waist measurement is what the sizing basis column tells you, and that makes it the column that matters most. A cell reading not published means the brand simply does not state a weight or blend for that style. Read 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 sits well 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. 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. Beneath 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 easiest route if you are building a set. Colour is the simple part: black and yellow are the signature pairing, and the woven label supplies enough yellow on its own.
Notes on 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 happen and reward waiting, 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. September 2026 is when every price quoted here was current, and they will move.
