Knickers are part of a classic cross-country skiing outfit. Pair them with some warm wool knicker socks, and you'll be off - back to the 1970s!
This example is likely from the latter days of the knicker era - before Nordic wardrobe was simplified to the full-length pant. Made of a pot pourri of synthetic fabrics, this pair is littered with pockets - plenty to stuff your Kvikk Lunsj in!
American guys - don't be shy - these are not "male capris". Norwegian ski champions of yore, who spent off-seasons harvesting timber with their bare hands (pretty much true), wore such attire in competition. Get in line!!!
