Vintage Red K-Way Windsuit

Super swishy vintage k-way windsuit
Your awesome, crisp & shiny K-Way pics showed up in my never-ending Google search for K-Ways today. What size are those read K-Way pants? Would you be interested in selling them? I have a huge K-Way collection, so I might have something of interest to entice you to a sale, swap or both!
 
Haha yes, I do the same. I am constantly hunting for vintage ones. I'm not overly fond of the modern models because I find the fabric feels cheaper in the 2.0 models and feels totally different altogether in the 3.0s. They're also astronomically priced. 700+ dollars for the D-Squared pullovers is just ridiculous.

The pants are size 8 which loosely translates to medium/large. I bought them as brand-new "dead stock" from someone on Ebay a few years back. I wouldn't sell them but could potentially be up for a trade depending on what's on offer.
 
K-Way forever haha!

For a long time it was only possible to buy these models in France or Italy, but when I could use a shipping forwarder a huge supply of excellent items became available from the domestic market. Vinted.fr is probably the best source of vintage K-Way. I have had some very large parcels coming from France full of shiny, crisp and swishy K-Ways! I have it all: ponchos, rain coats, cagoules, jackets and pants. I also have adidas Ventex from the same era, in the exact same materials. If you are into layering, you can combine these different models for maxing the sounds and feels.

As for your red pants, size 8 is usually on the smaller end of what I would go for, but if the top is size 8, that is a different matter as 8 is really way larger than size 8 in pants. For some reason K-Way didn't match the sizes, so for a size 8 top the pants must be size 10, which is usually 112 cm long, 9 is usually 108 cm long for the model with the logo prior to the current. But then again there is quite a bit variation here, as I have a green one in size 8 which is perfect, but it's 107 cm long and 39 cm unstretched. So how long and wide is yours?

What style/color are you looking for in a swap?
