Vintage monpe pants. Japanese noragi / peasant wear.
Indigo kasuri / ikat cotton. I love the combination of blue and purple. A really beautiful fabric.
Pocket on front right hip.
Elasticated waist and bottom of each leg.
Leg elastic is in great condition. Waist elastic is a little loose. Not sure if this is deterioration with age or intended to be loose.
Great condition. There is some light discoloration at the seat. I have tried to show it in the photo but it is so light it doesn't show very much.
Machine washable.
I have a number of vintage monpe in store and hopefully the following will help you compare.
