Strider: The Organic Cargo Trousers of Your Dreams π
Back in the early days of 3RD ROCK, one of the first styles we ever created was the Strider, a bold take on the classic cargo trouser.
Β
Designed to move with you, endure your wildest adventures, and still look good at the pub afterwards β the Strider quickly became a favourite among climbers, commuters, and outdoor lovers alike.
Β
Guess whatβ¦ The Strider is back baby! β€

Why Bring Back the Strider?
Ask and you shall receive! Weβve had quite a few requests over the years to bring the Strider backβ¦ maybe those original trousers from 2012 finally gave up the ghost! π»
Β
As we developed our new organic cotton twill material, it only seemed right to bring a classic style back - and thanks to Gen-Z making cargo trousers cool again (written by a Gen-Z so youβre welcome π) there was no questionβ¦ the Strider was making a comeback!
Β
So here we are, 2025 is starting to look a bit like 2008 with Linkin Park on the radio & Cargo trousers in fashion again!
Designed for Movement, Built to Last πͺ
Strider isnβt just about looking great though! Weβve used our new soft-yet-sturdy organic cotton twill, blended with just the right amount of stretch to keep these bad boys zero-restriction. Are these the stretchiest cargo trousers ever? Maybe π
Β
But thereβs another point to consider when creating a pair of outdoor adventure trousers: durability. Which is why our Strider has reinforced bum & knee patches to not only protect your beautiful self, but also to make them last even longer!
Β
We also designed the Strider with a Banana cut to give your knees (not your π) more room to move.

Utility trousers to go anywhere & everywhere π
Strider is a utility trouser through and through, theyβre tough & hardwearing whilst still being comfortable with a relaxed, unisex fit. Durable trousers donβt need to be all heavy and stiff! This is 2025, not 1925 after all! π
Β
But Utility trousers are more than just the style - they need to be practical! Thatβs why weβve added ankle puller cords, 5 big pockets (including 2 zipped for valuables), and reinforced belt loops.

One of our side pockets also has an added gusset for EVEN more storage.
Sustainable From the Ground Up
If you know anything about 3RD ROCK, you know sustainability isnβt a buzzword β itβs our heart & soul.
Β
Strider is made using organic cotton thatβs kinder to the planet and feels amazing against your skin.
Β
Theyβre designed for durability, which means youβll wear them for years, not seasons. And because theyβre versatile enough to be your go-to for work, play, and everything in between, youβll need fewer clothes overall.
Β
Itβs all about designing smarter, buying better, and wearing longer. Strider is the embodiment of that philosophy.

Who Are They For?
Everyone! Next question! π
Β
Okay okay, the Strider was made for people who move. People who climb, hike, bike, build, create, and explore. For those who appreciate functionality, durability, and design that doesn't compromise.
Β
If your idea of a good time includes a bit of adventure β or just walking the dog in comfort and style β Strider belongs in your wardrobe.
Β
And because itβs a unisex fit, thereβs nobody the Strider doesnβt look incredible on!
