What to Expect - Mortblanc - 8 January 2015

With no commercial machine production of fabric or clothing one makes things last for as long as possible.

These pants are the patches on top of patches one would expect after a few years of use due to lack of supply or lack of money for replacements.

Found up the chimney of an English farm house and dated to the preindustrial revolution 18th century.
