After what-some-might-say a lengthy hiatus, iconic Ghetto Wear brand is returning with an updated version of its classic skateboard cargo pant. The original trousers were developed back in 1991 by famed professional skateboarders Steve Rocco and Rodney Mullen. Their product completely dominated the skate scene in the 90s.
The incredibly comfortable skateboard cargo pant design boasted a relaxed fit and a 100% durable twill that ensured that they could withstand and appropriately adjust to the physically demanding environment of urban skateboarding. The revived Ghetto Wear pant features a back patch, adjustable waist tabs and logo embroidery on the same performance-sustaining fabric. The model of the skateboard cargo trouser comes in knee- and full-length, featuring a classic tan and a dark military green color palette.
