I am confused. Flap in back and flap in front. Side nylon zipper. No label. Late 60s??
Would You Say Scooter Shorts or Scooter Skirt? UPDATE..SCANS

Oh, cool. I don't know why I was thinking late 60s on this. The lady I bought it from really knows her stuff and all her 70s are separated from her 60s stuff.
I have an early 70s catalog. Going to take a look.

70s.
I remember having a skort late 60s, so this could be a cusper.

Karen, you beat me to it..l wore them when 13-14...1971-2 hotpants....we called these flap or no!!
You all are right! I have a 1972 Spring Summer Sears Catalog with some similar! One says pantskirt and the other says playskirt.
I will see if I can get some scans.

Whatever you call them, they're scute!
From 1972 Sears....most were polyester but some were cotton/poly blend which this might be.
While I had the old scanner arunnin, I scanned some patterns similar that I will put on my Stitch in Time site.

I had a one in 1970. But I cannot remember what we called them. Skort, maybe.

Hey...a little OT but who are those ladies on those 1st two patterns? They are actresses. I know I have seen them. Probably of some LifeTime movies.
Hey, Marie, now don't get me started. Now, they do look familiar. I spent a whole morning doing this research! LOL

Top one looks like Elizabeth Shue (shoo, shoe) How the heck did I remember that name?
Thank you for that trip down memory lane -- I wore those in the very later 60s and we called them culottes (North Florida freaks that we were) and all those patterns recall the "early years" on my mom's Singer (which I still own) cranking out the clothes!!
