Vintage lined suede pants

[Kelly C]

Have a pair of vintage brown (satin? lined) suede pants. No tags, metal zipper. Looking to identify the symbols on the lining pictured here. Due to the crown and Thistle I was thinking Scottish in origin? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hmm I did a bit of research, and apparently that Coat of Arms is called the 'Golf King' coat of arms. If you look carefully you'll see it features two crossed golf clubs, two golf balls, and a man who apparently a caddie, as well as the crown and thistle/weeds.

You can buy it on buttons, presumably for your golfing blazer. It's not really a genuine Coat of Arms, more something for the golf enthusiast. It doesn't seem to be associated with a clothing brand.

Suede pants don't sound like golf wear, but what do I know?

Perhaps the maker just wanted a heraldic look for the lining, with the Rampant Lion as well (a classic heraldic beast)

Thanks so much Retro Ruth! I have included some pictures of the pants, definitely not golf wear but an interesting piece for sure!
