<p>[QUOTE="reader, post: 483409, member: 255"]I would guess chamois too. They look like 60s-70s hippy dippy pants to me too. Chamois was used for pretty much all clothing. Somewhere in some closet (don’t ask) are an 80s Ralph Lauren chamois skirt and shirt. Mine are definitely 80s as I bought them new at RL. The problem with chamois is that they are all splits and the elasticity of leather comes from the leather side, not the suede side so it is relatively fragile and not a material to wear fitted as they will split. Cool pants and love those A & F long johns which I’d wear as pants as long as they were loose enough.Someone should remake those![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
