Macjays cream and red pinstripe trousers in two lengths, 1970s
Macjays Clothing Company began in 1976, and it wasn't long before they gained a solid reputation for their well cut and fitted range of pants. This particular pair are important to the legacy of the label, as they were some of the first off the production line, and are still in the personal collection of Justin Jones, founder Russell Jones's son. This style came in these two lengths, as well as a shorts version, all taken from the same basic pattern. The red pinstripe on the white ground is accented by a matching vinyl belt.
