工装裤，也称作冲锋裤是用于艰巨的室外活动，突出特征是有多个装物的口袋。现在工装裤在城区也流行起来，因为可以方便地在步行时刻方便地携带物品。

工装裤兜主要是贴兜（patch pocket），常常在兜布上留有皱褶以增加容积，兜盖上用摁扣、纽扣、磁性、尼龙搭扣封闭，常用于作训服与猎装。某些工装裤设计把裤兜做成了裤腿上的暗兜。

工装裤用较硬的织物、结实地缝纫制成。很多采用快干合成纤维或棉混布料，常常有大尺寸的袢带（belt loops）以容纳宽腰带（webbing belt）。

工装裤在膝部与臀部典型地设计为允许弯曲，用明包缝缝纫以加强并耐用。

Cargo pants or cargo trousers, also sometimes called combat trousers (or combats) after their original military purpose, are loosely cut pants originally designed for tough, outdoor activities, and whose design is distinguished by one or more cargo pockets. Cargo pants have become popular in urban areas as well, since they are convenient for carrying items during day trips on foot. Cargo shorts are a shorts-length version.
