Found on eBay: Star Wars Disco Duds

Ah, the ‘70s. For Star Wars fans, the decade of disco brought us Meco’s Star Wars and Other Galactic Funk, “The Star Wars Holiday Special” kitsch-fest, and the occasional fashion gem, such as customized bell-bottom Star Wars pants.

For vintage fashion aficionados with a far-out bent, a seller in Australia is serving up one groovy pair of custom flared Star Wars pants with rainbow striping, just the thing that would have caught the eye of that calculator-toting closet Star Wars fan in 1978. Collecting guru Steve Sansweet tells us the fabric comes from ‘70s licensee Liberty Trousers, but that the design is 100% dyn-o-mite.

Better boogie if you want to strut these duds — the seller ships worldwide.
