The submitted sample, Style 947125BU, is a pair of ladies knit trousers. The two front panels are composed of a 100% polyester fabric coated with a cellular plastic material that completely obscures the underlying fabric. The two back panels are composed of 95% polyester and 5% spandex knit fabric. The garment features a front zipper closure, a rear yoke and legs that taper to the ankles.
