part of the public acceptance of cargo pants may due from the resurgence of outdoor activities by urban middle class (hiking, mountaineering, off-roading, fishing).
I had absolutely no idea about German U-Boat crews wearing them, it's the first time I've heard about it. It would be great if you could make more videos like that.
I think they crossed over into the public during the Vietnam war. War surplus has always been a thing since WW2 but post ww2 nobody wanted to wear their old uniforms and their demob suits looked nothing like their uniforms. I'd imagine some wore them to do the garden or whatever but not on the high street. Cargo shorts are a direct result of cut-off OD Jungle trousers. Counter culture appropriated surplus and lots of vets would wear their uniforms etc as a statement/protest.
I have three pairs of the 5.11 Stryke pants. The first two were perfect, but I picked up a few pounds so bought a third, and the FIT and construction was NOT the same. Turned out I wasn't the only one who has made this observation. So I'll be looking at TruSpec, Propper, and the good old Govt issue. I'm 59, already served, already been tactical for real, so I couldn't care less about what someone else thinks !
Funny enough I just got two pairs of Duluth Cargo Pants for work yesterday. It makes sense if something works then the military will continue to use it. What are some examples Clothing or tools sticking around in the military way longer then they should have?
I remember reading a story about some British unit which had a few field stoves from WW1. Not reproduction, not similar ones, but the exact ones they'd carried into WW1. Over a hundred years old.
I am deaf . I love wearing over the knee loose fit cargo shorts and loose fit cargo pants. Very useful and functional. And I love the look of it . Very comfortable loose fit. Thanks for sharing your knowledge about it with us. Keep doing what you love to do ! Awesome ! 😎🙏
Early 80's. Sting popularized a cargo pant called the parachute pant. From there the biggest company to make fashion cargo pants en mass was Bugle Boys.
A German soldier (or command) said that their favorites from captured troops were French wine, British clothes, and American cigarettes. This quote was reinforced when the Germans were winning early North African campaigns against the British. At the time they were wearing "good" uniforms but were impractical for the deserts. So against uniform regulations, they got rid of their long trousers and knee high boots for British army shorts and ankle height boots.
I have been wearing 5.11 since they were first time imported here and in the original tactical pants the rear pockets are large enough for 2. Gen ipad mini and 1 litre milk carton
Found this really interesting because I’ve always been annoyed that cargo pants are looked at as “tactical pants”. I always just liked them because of the functionality but worry they give off the impression that you’re trying hard to be an operator wannabe and could possibly be a giveaway that I’m carrying a concealed gun or at least draw attention to myself. Didn’t know it was the other way around and that they were originally designed for the military. Would be cool if you could share the story of 5.11. I heard their origin story on a podcast.
I think it depends greatly on the design and pattern. Many pockets(particularly calf/knife/light pockets) and/or obvious patterns definitely give off the operator vibe, which may or may not be beneficial at times. However, a solid, plain color and conservative amounts of pockets can lend well to function while being at least somewhat discrete, or at least ambiguous.
I work in a kitchen, cargo pants are incredible for BOH work. Phone, wallet, keys, sharpies, thermo, charger, nic pouches, lighters, In the past cigarettes, earbuds, paystub, pocket knives, protein bars, anything you will need in a 12 hour day.
Hey Antonio, would love to see a video for motorcycle gear and fashion. As a fellow motorcyclist I'm sure you would be able to share a way to mold style and utility?
RUSH 24 backpack is perfect for carry on while flying. I stuffed mine for a 2 week trip with most of all the clothing I would need. It fits in the overhead perfectly ( using the compression straps to cinch it down as small as possible). I also carry the 5.11 tactical briefcase and it holds everything else i need for a trip. No checked bags, no lost luggage.
can you feature how to dress well using cargo pants. i know some fashion channels butcher it but there's got to be a way to dress smartly with it, right? all i see is dressing up tactically/gray but is there a way how to dress cargoes fashionably?
I love 5.11 most of my gear is 5.11. Although if you have any connections to the company I would like it if you support my request to manufacturer their TDU system with FR materials. It's great gear but not FR so not authorized for our team except for training.
Does anyone know or if there’s a record shows the drawstring on the pocket of the cargo pant ever been used to “stop the bleeding” during the war? As according to label inside the pant, these drawstrings are designed to secure the items in the pocket. But there are people claiming these were used to stop the bleeding. Just want to figure out the source of that information. Thanks
Have a few different 5.11 pants but find the Stryke to be best overall comfort and function wise. Only downside is price especially considering most of them are made in Bangladesh nowadays.
Teflon finish fabric? Don't tell me.....that's been around for decades, and only now I hear about it.....😂😂😂😂😂 If it has teflon in it, I suppose it's fire proof too!
Tbh I initially thought you were gonna say that they were sold to the Germans by US companies before the US entered the war. A little known piece of history is that up until the US official involvement, Germany and Nazism really was not particularly unpopular in the US, and many well-known US corporations, such as Ford for example, continued to do business in Germany throughout the war, producing arms for both sides of the Western Front. Hitler also greatly admired the US since childhood, later on basing much of the Holocaust on the US' anti-indigenous policies/genocide, and even named his personal train Amerika in the nation's honour.
Whenever I'm not well dress in my 3 piece suits while traveling to the rural areas I would wear WW2 British Military style field clothing and footwear and for head wear I would wear an Akubra Hat.
Question for everyone. Who are you inspired by seriously?

@@RealMenRealStyle Sure brother. I've been binging on different people lately. Channel subscriber count doesn't matter to me. I'm a more MASCULINE dude as you may gather. I have a network of over 4500 people I stay in contact with and we all send and rcv msgs from others. In all forms. Postal, email, txt, fax, audio files, video, apps, signal, everyone has their area of expertise so we can ask others specify info in their "wheelhouse" we're talking about monetizing but many want to keep it as is. Under 5k is manageable. Have a wonderful day brother! Thank You
I love the video. I dislike 511. I had a brand new pair. I wore them twice. On my second use i got out of my vehicle to go into Walmart. The crotch area ripped apart. I sent a picture of that to my girlfriend, she laughed hysterically. Awesome video.
This reminded me in the 80’s my mum tell constantly telling me off “Why are you wearing those crappy pants, when I have nice clothes for you”. Me: My cargo are the best for BMXing, hiking, just everything 😝🫡

You heard about the Morgenthau plan? Or Kaufmann’s Germany must perish?
@@stefanoicepick What has that got to do with what trousers German U-Boat crews wore?
RMRS is the Mark Felton of clothing in the military.
Well. That's an apt way of putting it.
Thank you!
Love Antonio's take on history- it's always soooo RMRS!
Thank you - never thought cargo pants have such an interesting history!
Never thought I'd see you do a video on my favorite cargo pants by 5.11. They are my absolute favorites. Kudos!
These outfit history videos are so interesting and fun.

I like to wear cargo pants and shorts. Makes it easy to carry things like your cellphone, checkbook, shopping list, and other things.
Great video as always... Im loving this series of history of clothing 👍👍, waiting eagerly for a video on history of neckties. Love u Antonio sir ❤️.
Thank you so much 😀

Great vid, love the history and of course, love cargos, and I've been already sold on 5.11 since '08-'09
Nice and informative. Can you do a bug out bag video? Thanks in advance and keep the great content flowing

Excellent. 511 makes good stuff.

Absolutely love this type of video
Going out to Big Sur in August for some hiking, those 511 tactical cargos might come in handy… out run a damn mountain lion in those bad boys
Sounds like a plan.
I love wearing cargos but only outdoors where I need them. Dress pants and chinos in town.

Yup, I have used rush 24 for the same purpose and the pocket layout is one of the best I have seen.
Yes more of history clothes please!!!!!!
Interestingly enough 5.11 had a system of accessories that allowed for secure placement of knives, magazines and even a BUG in those cargo pockets.
can you feature how to dress well using cargo pants. i know some fashion channels butcher it but there's got to be a way to dress smartly with it, right? all i see is dressing up tactically/gray but is there a way how to dress cargoes fashionably?
I'm hardly a fashion plate but even I've had to retire my cargo pants and shorts -- except for camping.
Said it once, going to say it again. Love the style history video's
Airborne Sir. Hard to beat a good pair of cargo pants. As a Paratrooper they are part of my life. As a skateboarder they are fictional and add style.

Actually yes, my dad did tell me that the British invented cargo pants in the early 1930s, they were fully wool and a bit baggier

5.11 Is tactical but for the Civilians who want to look tactical and normal instead of odd lookin

Before ww2. There was global trade co operation Japan.
But damn did they make them look cool.
Where did skinny jeans come from? and why it hurts the nuts along with your manhood? make a video for that
Good idea!

Nazi? You mean National Socialist? Please don't use that offensive zionist/marxist slur.
