Harem Pants

So harem pants were the coveted souvenir out of our group, despite the fact that they weren't really Jordanian at all, just funny looking.



So that's a picture of my harem pants. Some people got them in different colors, but that's mine. And so here's a list of some of the quirks of harem pants.
  • The store that we bought them in was extremely sketchy, and to try them on you went up this rickety staircase to the storeroom upstairs, and tried them on among the boxes full of cheap tourist souvenirs.
  • They were too big for you in you were less than about five two, so then they had to be pulled up to your chest and worn as a romper, or rolled to an extreme so you could wear them as pants.
  • If they fit and you wore them as pants, the crotch comes down to your knees. They're funny like that.
  • Airport security will indeed comment on how your whole group is wearing matching pants.
  • Keep in mind, they don't look nearly as ridiculous in Jordan as they do in the states.
