Yes, they’re Barracuda pants—the only trousers that remind you, and anyone within eyesight, that you have a penis.

The copy says: “Male makes pure man stuff… like bold and brawny Barracuda slacks with swing-around pocket styling. They cling like a girl in the dark. Won’t wrinkle—they’re permanently pressed! Rarer fabrics…richer colors…better tailoring…modest prices…all yours at better stores throughout the Free World. Go look them over. You’ll buy an armload.

H+K CORPORATION, Atlanta, Ga. * creators of MALE – THE FASHION SPOKESMAN FOR AMERICAN MEN”

I think my favorite part about this retro magazine ad is that these super manly manly pants are available “at better stores throughout the Free World.” That’s as priceless as the placement of the guy is unfortunate.
