These pants just keep on truckin'...WITH NOBODY INSIDE!
History[]
In c. 1970 Rumored to have first been haunted during a seance on the Merry Pranksters' tour bus, these jeans have long been a staple of the psychedelic supernatural underground. Spotted backstage at Woodstock, caught on grainy 16 mm film in the candlelit background of a Haight-Ashbury love-in, photographed riding behind a member of the notorious biker gang fleeing Altamont, the "Walking Pants" have been around whenever weirdness or tragedy strikes the hipster scene. The "Walking Pants" are the hippie equivalent to the "Girl on the Road" ghost story. Prior to their resurfacing this year, they haven't been seen since 1981.
Where to Find It[]
