Just too cool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe quality of the fabric was designed to withstand the heavy labor of the time. Despite that, it’s not overly thick and is exceptionally comfortable to wear—a truly luxurious pair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince the former East Germany wasn't as affluent as the West at the time, functionality was prioritized over aesthetics. That is why the fabric is top-notch, yet the design remains simple and minimalist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI personally love this normcore design—it’s not flashy at all and strips away any unnecessary elements. I believe that vintage items that look plain at first glance are the ones truly worth loving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso, I recently heard from an acquaintance who lived in the former East Germany that, due to the socialist system, workwear was seen as an indicator of one's status, so it seems everyone wore almost identical clothing while working.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince I’ve been fortunate enough to have many new customers recently, I’ve written a bit of background info for the first time in a while. Haha.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI hope this helps even more people take an interest in European clothing!!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pair is a size W36, but as you can see me doing, it looks great cinched tight with a belt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a great silhouette and high-quality fabric, this is a perfect pair with nothing to complain about.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a clean vintage piece that I highly recommend even to those who aren't usually fans of secondhand clothing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade in East Germany\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e※送料込み \/ Free shipping\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eModel height - 174cm man\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eMaterial - Cotton\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eSize -\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 50 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFits mens w36\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eMeasurement on flat - \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003eFlat measurements\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e(cm)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eWaist 92\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eRise 34\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThigh 37.5\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eInseam 77\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eHem width 21\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eCondition - Dead stock.
