Cargo Skirt

Grey Cargo Midi Skirt with Front Split

Size Chart

Check both measurements and order by whichever is the tighter call for you — the skirt fastens with a button and zip so the waist has no give, and it runs fairly straight through the hip rather than flaring away from it. Between two sizes, take the larger one. Length is measured from the top of the waistband to the hem.

Utility done properly, in a pale grey that stops it looking like workwear. The waistband sits high with a button and zip fly and belt loops all the way round, oversized flap pockets sit low on each hip, and the skirt runs straight to mid-calf with a split up the centre front so you can actually walk. Drawstrings hang loose at the sides — pull them and the hem gathers in, leave them and it hangs clean.

How to Style a Cargo Midi Skirt

Cargo works best with a bit of contrast in weight, so a shrunken long-sleeve, a cropped tee or a fitted knit up top and something heavy on the feet — platform trainers, chunky boots, or trainers with socks pulled up. A leather jacket or an oversized shirt open over the top for layering. On shape, the straight cut skims from the waist without tracing the hip, which makes it easy across most figures, and the front split adds a vertical line that keeps a mid-calf length from cutting the leg short. 

FAQ

How high does the front split go?
It runs upwards from the hem to around knee height, so it's there for movement rather than for show. That's enough to walk and climb stairs normally in a straight mid-calf skirt, without exposing much of the thigh.

Are the cargo pockets real?
Yes — they're working flap pockets set onto the hip, deep enough to be useful rather than decorative panels stitched flat. They do add a little bulk where they sit, which is characteristic of the style.

Which size should I order?
Compare both your waist and hip measurements to the chart and go by whichever lands in the larger row. There's no stretch in a buttoned waistband, and because this skirt runs fairly straight the hip needs genuine room rather than being carried by a flare.
