Seriously -opinions? I dig the scalloped rear pocket flaps, AND it'll take a two inch belt! A hard to find from a company that was right up there with A&F and W&G as far as outfitters of the mid-2o'th century

SA or not those are a cool find. I like the darker color of the two being offered. Gotta measure up a pair of trousers at home and see how these compare.

I pulled the trigger on a pair of the brown. I'm looking forward to getting them. The turleneck and sunglasses....not so much.

Got mine. The seller was good to work with, quick shipping and well packaged. The color is more of a darkish khaki than brown. I like the color, but not brown. I think the color as shown on the listing is accurate.

As I wear a 34 waist, that's what I ordered. They fit fine in the waist, but are cut much more narrow in the seat and thighs. As my Bride pointed out, she rather liked the fit ;) , but they fit much tighter than any other pair of trousers I own.

Once I hit my target weight in 13 pounds or so, I think they'll fit rather well. I reserve the right to wait to post pictures until that time. :oops:

Indiana Jeff
