"Leg nose", what is this? As we all know, calves are cows, generally referring to calves, calves and calves' noses. As the name implies, a calf is like a cow's nose. What is that?

In ancient China, there were two kinds of trousers, one called Qiu or Fu, and the other called Fu.

Hump is trousers, which is said to be "two strands crossing" in the definition of names and "shin clothes" in Shuowen.

Whether it's "two strands crossing each other" or "shin clothing", it's actually the same, that is, what you wear on your legs is similar to pants without crotch, which is probably what suspenders and stockings look like today without underwear.

You have crotch underwear in ancient times, which can be divided into two types: one is like today's boxers, slightly longer, generally knee-length, or slightly higher than the knee, with two obvious trouser legs.

The other is very short, very similar to modern briefs, and this is the "calf nose pleat".

Look at the nose of the cow and you will know how vivid it is.

In fact, the nose of the calf is still different from today's underwear. If you look at the picture carefully, you can see that it is around the sides first and then through the crotch. This kind of trousers has been popular for thousands of years, originally belonging to underwear, but people at the bottom, such as servants, grooms, farmers and so on. For convenience, I will wear it directly outside ~
