You wore dungarees with engineering boots, you wore the pantlegs outside the boots and you rolled or folded the jean cuffs inside out so they were just above the foot of the boot. You wore a very wide black belt with a large steel buckle and you wore a white tee shirt with your pack of cigarettes rolled up in the shirt sleeve. Of course you combed your hair with a dab of Brylcreem in it.
I remember new blue jeans were stiffer than cardboard and pretty damned uncomfortable until about a half dozen washes, but they seemed to last forever.
I think that came later. "Brylcreem; a little dab will do ya"
Butch Wax is what we grew up with.
