These 1950s vintage wide-leg pajama pants feature a flat front waistband with encased sides and back for a comfortable, relaxed fit. The wide legs are highlighted by a narrow pink satin trim at the waist and hems, offering a splash of color. These lounge pants were once part of a post-WW2 pajama set, crafted from vibrant aqua blue satin weave nylon. Pink piping accents the front basque waist and hem.

The U.S. military presence in Japan after the war influenced local fashion, with soldiers often visiting shops that specialized in crafting such items. These pants became a part of the post-war fashion scene, celebrated for their unique craftsmanship.
The low crotch and wide legs align with the fashion trends of the time, where pants were designed to drape like long skirts. This style not only creates a flowing, elegant silhouette but also ensures comfort and ease of movement.
