“Did you wear Sears Toughskins as a kid——with the reinforced knees?
They were VERY popular in my neighborhood”
Pretty sure my folks bought me a pair back in the late 60’s. Then they figured just go cheap and use the iron on knee patches LOL!
I used the iron-ons too -—also popular.
Kids were never inside in those days-—the pants didn’t last long.

I believe that was around the same time as “Garanimals” and a line of sneakers called “Winners” ... all from Sears.
