hippie pants

I need a very specific style of mod / hippie pants.

The archtypical bright stripey ones, exactly like the gentleman is wearing at 0:56 - 0:58 in this video.

A cursory search is coming up empty, and I think I may not be using the correct terms to find them. Surely these pants still exist somewhere out there?

If you live in a metropolitan area there should be a vintage clothing store or two that would surely sell mod styles from the '60s. They might not be cheap though.

Are you looking for those specific colors, or will red, white, and blue do? Do you need a button fly and patch pockets? Bell-bottoms, or no (hard to tell in the video)? You might add "70s" to your search... as a child of the 70s, I can say they were worn then (or at least, my parents dressed me in them).

This is how I would search for the pants on ebay. Maybe you can look at the descriptions people use in any that come close, to better your search words.

They might not have exactly what you want, but Dress That Man is a good source for men's vintage clothes.
