The Tidbit from several days ago looked at the jerseys in the 1964 MacGregor Fall & Winter Catalog. Of course, a well-dressed team only steps onto the field with a sweet pair of pants to match or complement the jerseys, so today's the day to review those offerings.
What always strikes me with these catalogs is how much things cost. Plugging the numbers into an inflation calculator, football gear in those days seems more expensive than it is now, when adjusted for inflation.
Love the stirrups!
The stirrups always looked nice, but boy did I hate putting them on when I played.
Your usual dry wit is full force with the Duke crotch…and either of those two girdle options were certainly grim, well into the 70s.
