Sans-a-Belt slacks

This you?

with the extra-roomy balloon seat?

Is it pronounced as ‘Song-za-bell’?

action pants!

Mr. Action Zone has quite the turkey neck!

I’m wearing them to services this morning. The other choir members are going to be jaloux!

That’s an amusing song, despite the frau’s voice.

If only I’d been born earlier. As a gayling, I loved ogling men wearing sansabelt pants and the midnight blue double/knit postal pants.

SNL helped highlight the fact that they were a fad.

I'm more interested in this "Action Zone" as noted in r4 😛

The gimmick was a couple of thin strips of rubbery material at the waist that gripped the shirt. I had an afterschool job at Belk-Lindsey in the men's department circa 1978-9 and we sold a shitload of these to mostly golfers. And my dad had a few pair as well.

I tried on a pair for kicks once. They were the weirdest feeling pants I ever tried on. 100% polyester and the waist came up to my nipples. I looked like Urkel

Are they superior to caftans?

No Sans-a-Belt ever and no clip on suspenders after the second grade.

The 2.5” elastic interior elastic waistband keeps the shirt from blousing and also serves as a sort of girdle, keeping the belly from bulging out. And Sans-a-Belt’s special poly wool bengaline fabric is drip dry!

Interesting, r14 🧐

With my 31-inch waist I always have had trouble finding anything in Sans-A-Belt.

You fatties are so lucky.

Of course I also have trouble finding shirts that don't put too much focus on my pecs and trousers that fit well over my gymnast butt. It's embarrassing!

See, you fatties are lucky in more ways than one because no one stares at you brazenly like I have to endure.

^ I'd get my money back for that creative writing class if I were you. You were cheated

R16, I'd put money on it, is a fat.

The manufacturer includes strips of fabric for belt loops if you really feel you must have them for aesthetic purposes and such, but the 2.5” elastic waistband obviates any functional need for a belt. Sans-a-Belt is also made in the USA!

I can’t read “Sans-a-Belt Slacks” without hearing Don Pardo‘s voice saying it.

My grandfather wore springolators, with his sans-a-belts. It was a popular look! He turned a lot of heads!

The sansabelt moose knuckle was one of the first things that greeted me at any Greek restaurant.

John Wayne must have loved Greek food...
