Hang on, Matt ... take another look at the 1936 Sears catalog page, above. See the two pairs of pants at the top right? Those pant bottoms look very wide, don't they? Well, looks can deceive: they're only 21 inches. The vintage Oxford bag that just sold on eBay has a leg bottom of nearly 24 inches. Now that is wide!
