Does anyone remember
stirrup pants? They used to call them Bellevue seat covers here in Western Washington.

1. My dear spindrifter!
Oh yes........

I do remember those!

I had a pair that I wore out in the middle sixties!

I took the stirrups off, though......

Then they looked really good!

I wore them forever!

:bounce: :bounce:

3. Hear, hear!
And they were always stretched tight so your legs looked like shapeless tubes. I hated them like I hated the catsuit which was popular around the same time.

4. I never had a pair...
I only wore jeans. I always thought the way they looked at the front of the ankles was bizarre. But for some reason, Seabob and I remembered them recently.

5. I owned them and eventually removed the stirrups.

6. I have seen some
interesting legwarmers--really thick, worn with microskirts. The look is not to be repeated, I hope.

8. Yes, I had several pairs.
In fact, I think there is a pair of green ones still in my closet.
