Who remembers these specific Adidas track pants from the 90s?

I can picture them so clearly in my mind. They were navy blue or black, with the three stripes running down the leg to about three-quarters of the way down, and then a band — or maybe even two bands — wrapping around the calf.
Everyone had a pair. I absolutely loved mine and would buy another just for the nostalgia, but I’ve never seen them since.
Does anyone else remember them? Maybe I could find some on Vinted if I knew what they were called?

I loved mine too, had the navy and black! Wore them to death! No idea what they were called though!
My friend had a bright red pair I was particularly jealous of!
lots of girls also wore the Kappa version with the poppers down the side, I wasn’t allowed them for some reason…

No the ones I'm thinking of were full length and skinny. Xx

And the material was like nylon.

I know exactly the ones you mean - lived in them in the early 90s. Unfortunately I can't help you locate them though. Closest thing I've seen recently are Adidas firebird but they have the stripes all the way down.

Good luck in finding them!

Like these they're definitely a throwback!

Yeah I think I know the ones you mean. I had them in blue and black. I don’t remember what they were called but they were very comfortable!

Sporty Spice used to wear them.

I still have mine- I wear them for decorating in 🙂Covered in paint but bizarrely I can still get into them even though I am 35 years older and at least 2 stone heavier.

The label is very washed out , I can make out the words ' x 3 bar' / ' x 3 band' if that helps your search.

My daughter aged 18 at uni has mine ! I loved mine too they need to bring them back !! Plus a really comfy denim jacket with decent pockets inside and out. I bought my daughter a flying jacket (fake leather) salon to the top gun ones before she went to uni and she loves it!!

My elder DD wanted them as soon as she saw Sporty Spice wearing them, as did every one of her school friends. Then DS got some with poppers down the legs and DD was less keen.,Then I got the ones you’re describing and DD never wore hers again!

I remember them but I was never a fan, always preferred the full length stripes. I'm not sure if you could find a pair nowadays though
