Here's a commercial for one of the more obscure jeans brands of the late 1970's, Sedgefield jeans for men (made by the Blue Bell division of Wrangler; it would be discontinued by 1984). Here, a young woman is heavily attracted to a man wearing one of them, made of 100% cotton.
This aired on local Chicago TV late Saturday, December 15th 1979 during the 11:00pm to 12:00am timeframe.
