    Anybody recognize these pants?

    I know you said there is no makers label, but are there any labels at all? If so maybe there is RN number listed . If you can find an RN number you might be able to find the manufacturer by searching the RN database. https://rn.ftc.gov/pls/textilern/wrnquery$.startup
