Parachute pants

Remember? I despised them.

No, I wear blue jeans all the time, even back then. Thanks for bringing them back, crazyjoe.

LDK82 just bought 2 pair

Never seen them before but from the link they look like they were popular in the 80's?

Ha! I do remember..LOL

^^^^ yes they were popular in the 80s and popular in Europe too. They were made out of nylon and thin, just like a parachutes fabric, hence the name. They were also baggy and loose fitting flowing similar to a parachute. They usually had elastic waistbands and elastic at the bottle around the ankles.

I wore them when I was in grade school.
