The shape of the range of bottoms
At That’s A Awful Lot Of Cough Syrup, bottoms are the quieter half of the catalogue, and they reward a slow read. The range sorts into three groups: heavyweight fleece sweatpants for daily wear, printed and dyed pairs carrying the same artwork as the shirts, and workwear trousers built on Dickies bodies and denim. Different pricing separates each group, which is also cut from a different cloth and sized on a different basis. Weights and blends are the most useful thing to read before you commit, and the brand publishes them on most product pages, which is more than many independent labels bother with. What the brand does not publish is a single chart covering every fit. The sections buy now below take the groups in turn, then cover sizing and what each pair sits well beside.
The everyday fleece: the Classic Cough Syrup Sweatpants
The pair to look at first is the Classic Cough Syrup Sweatpants, which anchor the category. What the brand lists 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. Fourteen ounces sits well above a standard gym sweat, so they hold their shape rather than going slack after a few washes. They sit at 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. The published fit note is short and leaves no room for doubt: this style fits true to size. If one pair of awful lot of cough syrup bottoms is all you will ever own, this is the one.
The printed and the dyed pairs
The leg turns into a print surface in a small group of sweatpants beside the classic pair. Among the current names are 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. The flare cuts stand apart, opening through the lower leg instead of tapering, and they read differently over a shoe. Choosing comes down to whether you want the artwork on your legs or your chest, because in cough syrup clothing the two rarely need to compete. No weight is published for every one of them, so treat the 14 oz figure as specific to the classic pair.
The workwear bottoms: Dickies cuts, carpenter pants and denim
The third group is the one buyers tend to overlook, and the most durable thing the label makes. 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. 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 run at about $300 each in black, blue and tan, while 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. This corner holds the thickest construction detail, yet a thats a awful lot of cough syrup search rarely lands here.
Shorts, and where they belong in the same family
Barely 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 come in at about $100 and the Women’s Booty Shorts at about $60, so this shelf spans a wider range than the sweatpants do. The Double Cup Cargo Shorts are the only denim piece in the collection and are 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. Plainly put: the brand never uses the word jorts, so denim cargo shorts is the name to search on.
How the brand sizes bottoms
The commonest source of a wasted order is here, so read this part twice. With small through extra-large on nearly every style and 3XL on a smaller group of products, apparel runs XS to 3XL. 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. Denim and workwear go 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. The brand publishes no global size chart. The brand’s own sizing pages render 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.
Every bottom at a glance
The table below gathers what the brand itself publishes and nothing more. Check the prices again: they are the figures shown at its own store as of September 2026, and stock and pricing both move constantly here. A cell reading not published means the brand simply does not state a weight or blend for that style. The sizing basis column is the one that matters most, since it tells you whether you are choosing a letter or a waist measurement. 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 goes with what
The graphics are already doing the talking, which makes pairing an exercise in restraint. 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. Garment-dyed denim with visible pocket construction, the cargo shorts read as a statement themselves and sit better under a blank tee. The workwear trousers are the most flexible pieces exactly because they are the least decorated, so the Dickies cuts and the carpenter pants carry a loud top without argument. Colour is straightforward: black and yellow are the signature pairing, and the woven label supplies enough yellow on its own. Matching a hoodie and sweatpants from the same named capsule is the simplest route if you are building a set.
Notes on buying in 2026
Price is not the real constraint; stock is. 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. You will find those shops 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 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. All the prices quoted here were current in September 2026 and will move.
