Toughskins

Toughskins

Toughskins are a line of clothing sold by Sears, Roebuck and Company which were primarily marketed for their durability. When launched, the line consisted just of children's jeans and they were sold with the guarantee that children would grow out of them before the pants wore out. Toughskins had reinforced knees for longer wear and came in slim and regular sizes. Sears eventually expanded the line to include corduroy jeans, denim jackets, and men's work clothes.

Toughskins were a blend of Dacron Type 59 polyester, DuPont 420 nylon, and cotton.
