1970s | Deadstock Wool Flares | Red - w26
Description:
Item:
Vintage 1970s deadstock wool flares in a red, black and beige small-scale check. High-waisted cut with a neat fitted top block and a proper flare through the lower leg, giving them that clean elongated 1970s silhouette. The pattern has a strong tailored feel, while the deadstock condition keeps them especially crisp and sharp.
Era:
1970s
Brand:
Not stated
Condition:
Deadstock vintage condition. Unworn old stock with strong colour, clean lines and a fresh handle overall. A particularly sharp example.
Provenance Note:
These stand out because they have the things people are usually hoping for in 1970s trousers all at once: true deadstock condition, a genuine flare, and a cloth that suits the cut properly. The check gives them a slightly smarter, more dressed feel than plain flares, while the red running through the pattern stops them feeling flat or overly sensible. Because they are unworn, they keep that crispness through the leg and shape that can be lost in worn examples, which makes a real difference with tailored 1970s pieces. A strong pair for someone who wants proper period flares with freshness as well as character.

Condition Notes:
Please be aware. All our true vintage items come with a history, and minor signs of age, wear, or character should be expected. Any notable marks, damage, or repairs will always be clearly mentioned. This natural wear is part of what gives genuine vintage its individuality and authenticity. True vintage should not be confused with modern second-hand clothing
We photograph all garments using a professional, studio-grade imaging system designed to show colour, texture, and shape as accurately as possible. This setup was built specifically to give a true representation of each piece and avoid misleading presentation; however, we do not take photos of inside the garment. While we take great care in inspecting every piece, with true vintage it is always possible that a minor detail may be missed.
Sizing Notes:
Please compare these measurements to a similar item you already own, laid flat (rather than measuring your body). Start with the bust measurement, then check length. Vintage sizing runs small and cuts vary significantly from modern equivalents, so the measurements listed are the best guide to fit.
Our modern sizing estimates are based on bust measurements using the following sizing scale:
UK 6 (30–31")
UK 8 (32–33")
UK 10 (34–35")
UK 12 (36–37")
UK 14 (38–39")
UK 16 (40–41")
UK 18 (42–43")
UK 20 (44–45")
For jackets, knitwear, and padded outerwear, we grade one size down to allow for structure, lining, and bulk.
Buying true vintage clothing:
When buying true vintage clothing, you are buying a piece of clothing as an investment. We believe most of our true vintage items will hold or increase in value in years to come. We hope you will cherish your purchase.

We are an independent micro business, and return postage costs are the responsibility of the buyer.
