Title: Re: Where can I buy plaid pants like Brian's? Post by: Lowbacca on April 14, 2013, 11:15:41 AM Try browsing ebay once in a while. Weirdest sh*t turns up on ebay.
EDIT: Damn, that's 2,000 posts. In a pants thread, of all things. Title: Re: Where can I buy plaid pants like Brian's? Post by: SMiLE Brian on April 14, 2013, 11:16:17 AM eBay is loaded with them.
Title: Re: Where can I buy plaid pants like Brian's? Post by: Letsgoawayforawhile on April 14, 2013, 11:46:51 AM I'm kind of upset opening this, and having Brian's moose knuckle staring at me.

I'd love to have an outfit like that, screw what people think. ;D Title: Re: Where can I buy plaid pants like Brian's? Post by: Puggal on April 14, 2013, 11:54:23 AM In the pajamas section of any department store

Don't forget to finish it off with a white belt. ;D

Post by: KittyKat on April 14, 2013, 02:55:14 PM There are listings for men's vintage plaid pants on EBay. A lot of them claim to be "disco pants," so apparently, Brian was ahead of his time.
Title: Re: Where can I buy plaid pants like Brian's? Post by: ? on April 14, 2013, 10:44:58 PM Ebay is the least expensive option. Ideally you can find a seller moving a lot of NOS so there won't be a lot of competition from other bidders. If you want to spend a little more try Atom Retro. Great clothes but they aren't cheap.
Title: Re: Where can I buy plaid pants like Brian's? Post by: NHC on April 15, 2013, 02:00:38 PM Wore that stuff in the late 60's. For about one year. Had some houndstooth checked ones my sister bought me in San Francisco. My dad could not stand them. Actually, neither could I. But I wouldn't admit it. If I still had them today, I couldn't get them past my knees.

Title: Re: Where can I buy plaid pants like Brian's? Post by: hypehat on April 16, 2013, 02:06:37 PM I see girls wearing trousers like this all the time. Except I think they're leggings. Or pyjamas (oh, to live in a student neighbourhood). If you're cool with wearing leggings or pyjamas....

Dressing up like Brian in 1982 is the way to go....Title: Re: Where can I buy plaid pants like Brian's? Post by: Jason Penick on April 16, 2013, 04:51:37 PM I got a pair of those a long time ago from a Goodwill type store as part of a Halloween costume. They were polyester and didn't breath at all. Highly uncomfortable!

COMMENT:(http://i.imgur.com/dFBuCxZ.png) Those are golf slacks. He owned red, green, and blue one's. Shortly after this phase, he switched to white pants -- always white slacks -- worn with expensive colorful shirts with themes like Hawaiian, surfing, or large tropical flowers. Plad slacks are easy to find here in Florida at any golf course proshop. Plad slacks can also be found here (click on photo for details of the fashion statement you wish to make) >>>> http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&sugexp=crnk_timepromotiona&gs_rn=9&gs_ri=psy-ab&cp=8&gs_id=u&xhr=t&q=plaid+pants&bav=on.2,or.r_qf.&bvm=bv.45512109,d.eWU&biw=1046&bih=469&wrapid=tljp1366469218196017&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi&ei=bqpyUeSvBoPI9QTGtoDoDw#um=1&hl=en&tbm=isch&q=mens+plaid+pants&revid=2036494614&sa=X&ei=capyUdXqK4jY9ATirIH4BQ&ved=0CFEQgxY&bav=on.2,or.r_qf.&bvm=bv.45512109,d.eWU&fp=c37c7a14c6f6fcaf&biw=1046&bih=469 ~swd Title: Re: Where can I buy plaid pants like Brian's? Post by: Shady on April 20, 2013, 08:11:11 AM If I didn't like my current one so much I'd love to change my username to "Brian's bulge". With that picture as my avy.
Title: Re: Where can I buy plaid pants like Brian's? Post by: leggo of my ego on April 20, 2013, 08:29:49 AM OMG - My mudder dressed me in stuff like that in the late 60's. Flair sleeve, plaid slacks, nehru collars... it was considered "fab"
in those days but I sure wouldnt touch it today. However I do like some of the striped tee shirts and things Brian wore then and have tried to locate some similar items. I think his "pinto print" v-neck sweater is pretty cool but you dont see many pics of him wearing that. Title: Re: Where can I buy plaid pants like Brian's? Post by: Custom Machine on April 20, 2013, 11:20:47 PM While golf slacks and pajamas have featured plaid designs for ages, for a rather brief period of time, pretty much beginning and ending in 1968, plaid pants such as the ones Brian is wearing could be found in just about any clothing store catering to young men, along with turtleneck sweaters.
Title: Re: Where can I buy plaid pants like Brian's? Post by: SMiLE-addict on April 21, 2013, 11:06:23 PM All I can say is ... ugh.
I think I might have worn some pants like that when I was a kid in the 70's. Even if they came back in style again, you'd never see me wearing them again. |
