If you're a fan of pockets, then I have great news for you: Utility pants are about to be one of fall 2022's biggest trends. They encompass everything from carpenter (love a cute lil hammer loop!) to cargo styles, and the workwear-inspired look is ready to take over. Brands like Still Here, which released its popular Subway jeans, and Alex Mill, which launched its Phoebe Pants, helped the trend gain momentum among the fashion set earlier in the year, but come fall, I guarantee you won't be able to miss it.
Here, I rounded up 29 pairs of utility pants in all shapes, sizes, colors, and rises, so you're bound to find at least one that's up your alley. Don't let the practical aesthetic make you think that your styling options are limited, either. You can wear them with sneakers or heels, T-shirts or button-downs—or anything in between! Some designs are more tailored, and others are meant to look loose and relaxed, so it's totally up to you. For the upcoming season, check out the best alternatives to jeans and trending fall prints if you want even more style inspo.
For an ultra-high rise, go with this pair. The perfect cream has arrived. A warm chocolate-toned pair for under $100? Sign me up. These are available in white and a vivid green. This pair has a tailored look to them, so you can wear them in and out of the office. Normally, I avoid parachute pants, but something about this Rag & Bone pair has me changing my mind. The contrast stitching is so pretty on this pair. Sizes of these straight-leg cargo pants are selling quick—better hurry! The visible hardware gives this style an added edge. Keep things loose with this khaki style from Frankie Shop. The side pockets are actually so convenient. The added hammer loop on this leather pair gives them that utilitarian feel combined with a luxe aesthetic. With a 4.5-star rating and more than 50 reviews, this style is hard to pass on. You can't have a utilitarian-pant roundup without including Dickies. Rules are rules! White contrast stitching on black pants is always irresistible. This pretty pair has a 4.2-star rating and comes in standard, plus, petite, and tall sizing. The range! The statement design of this pair is worth whatever the hassle may be of getting them off and on. A cherry-red pair with a hammer loop will get you so many compliments. Cargo jeans are often baggy, but this high-waisted style has slim pockets that reduce any bulk. You might want to go one size up, though, as reviewers say they can run small. I always love two trends in one! Puddle and utility pants in this case. The forest green and extra seams upgrade this cropped pair. Linen isn't just for summer, FYI. Oversize pockets are the key to my heart. Silver hardware stands out on a navy pair of carpenter jeans. The same shape as typical utility pants with a more subtle visible seam toward the hem. Sometimes, a coordinating belt really completes a look. The color of these pants makes them a great fall buy. A coordinating vest completes the whole look. A two-tone pair is great for those who don't like to commit to one color.
