Here is a little history if you ever wondered where they originally came from:
During the depression from 1929 to around 1933, there was great poverty worldwide. Mothers everywhere had to use their innovative skills and creativity to feed and dress their families. Not only in South Africa, but also in Australia and the USA. Flour used to be sold in fabric bags. These ladies processed the flour bags by washing and bleaching them to make them softer and whiter or order to make garments from them.
The first South African Bokomo pants (also known as Meelbroeke) were also made from the real Flour Bags, and if you bought one around 30 years ago, you might still have the original Meelbroek! Nowadays the fabric is printed as there are no more bags like they used in the olden days and plastic and poly propylene is now used to make the bags. The same fabric is still used, although a little stronger than that of the flour bags.
These pants might be a little stiff and hard when you buy them, mostly due to the coloring process, but after a wash or two, they become soft and before long, you will be living in them!
Please note that the pants get longer as the size goes up. Here is a general guide on the size to help you choose:
