Populist Pants

Available from Spring 1987 through Spring 1988.

From the catalog: ““Raise less corn and more hell!” So admonished a tough-spirited slogan of the Populist movement back in the 1890s. Styles have come and gone since then, but certain values persist. Our Populist Pants, steeped in grass-roots sensibility and the simple good sense of solid workmanship, are a case in point. Sturdily constructed of heavy-duty cotton twill, they’re built for comfort and the winds of change. Back pockets are welted for extra strength; double-reinforced seams are chain-stitched so threads won’t snap or unravel, no matter how much hell-raising the occasion calls for. No-nonsense pants for the individual Everyman.”
