Loons

Sparky – Hey I just remembered that I used to have a pair of hipsters called loons. Barely covered my backside at the top, and were miles across at the bottom of the legs. Anyone else remember them?

Awombleforever – I have a pair still ,like that black with coloured embroidery on the legs.They don’t fit me though as they are about a size 10.I even had to enlarge them slightly for a friend to borrow,also my daughter wore them to enter a talent competition over a year ago ,she was then 13.
Wish I hadn’t taken the stitches out though as they were in excellent condition apart from the bottoms which had been taken up by me and trailing .I was and I’m still only 5ft tall.
I have a waistcoat to match,bought at the same time.
That doesn’t fit me neither

Sparky – The only thing that I can say about them was that the width at the bottom managed to disguise my rather fat backside!

I started building Escape in 2005 and in it’s early form I had the pleasure of a great 70s community. Sadly with Escape’s new design we couldn’t incorporate the old threads into the new forum but so we don’t lose all those magical old chats we’ve collected them all here for you to go back and read.
