We lads used to run soap down the inside of trouser creases when we pressed em, made the creases stand out more. 21ins trouser bottoms with turnups. Never found out wether all this attracted the girls or not.

Mac, It did rain!! It's just that we, took no notice of it and just carried on what we was doing?Huh

William, Those were the days of Pride!! with soap on the inside trouser creases. I stated in 1949 when in the forces and just carried on. Same with extra creases on shirts. Took a very long time before I stopped, it was really pride in one's own appearance, not for the women:
