Or Should I Wear the Purple Sweater With the Diamond Pattern on It?
Eldridge Cleaver, a Black Panther who became born-again Republican, designed and marketed a line of men’s clothing in the 1980s, including pants with a codpiece which he called the Cleaver sleeve.

So clearly Photoshopped. Too bad.

Actually, these actually were available back in the day. Course most of you noobs were’t even gleams in the eyes of your parents then, so you can be forgiven for making assumptions that are so totally focused within your pitifully short lives.

Whether true or false it’s funny. But if it’s real, referencing the source would be appreciated…

Actually, the “most” inappropriate pants ever made were a design somewhat similar to these but made for women.

No, it’s definitely photoshopped. The shadows are all wrong. I can tell by the pixels.

From the Washington Post: (washingtonpost.com)
On surrendering to California authorities, Mr. Cleaver pleaded guilty to assault after prosecutors dropped attempted murder charges against him in the 1968 police shootout. He was placed on probation and directed to perform 2,000 hours of community service.
In the years since then, he had designed a line of men’s trousers with a strategically placed attachment called the “Cleaver sleave,” worked as a tree surgeon and sold clay flowerpots. He ran unsuccessfully for the U.S. Senate in the 1986 California Republican primary.
