The Rick Owens Black Cargo Pods Shorts encapsulate the brand’s signature blend of utility, avant-garde tailoring, and modern minimalism. Constructed from sturdy yet flexible black cotton-twill, they feature an artfully exaggerated baggy fit that hits just above the knee, with a dropped crotch and volume-rich silhouette that gestures toward unisex, conceptual styling. The standout “pod-style” cargo pockets—three-dimensional and shaped like soft pods—are attached at the thighs, offering both sculptural visual interest and functional storage without disrupting the overall flow of the shorts. Additional design touches include a tonal drawstring waistband with metal aglets, tonal snap closures, and angular paneling that echoes Rick’s architectural approach to fashion. Interior taping and precision stitching speak to the attention to detail expected from a high-end designer label.
