These are some very special pants. Made for a French farmer, they were made for men, but I've worn them a bunch. I bought them at a country flea market in Normandy last year. I don't know when they were made but the tag is shown in the photos. They fit me my medium waist with a belt but would also fit a large size. They sit at the hip and have a wide leg. They're very worn and hand-mended with love (which is their charm!) They're very thick le bleu cotton fabric. I have only washed on delicate and line-dried and I'd recommend not putting them in the clothes dryer. Other than that, they have years of life left in them. They're so cool.
