I had so many pairs, and I used to wear them pretty much all the time, not just for climbing. Poodle-perm, stonewash jacket, Van Halen shirt and the loudest jesters I could find under me bullet belt. Them were the days...
In reply to paul walters: Wore the arse out of mine. Have a couple of pairs of omnis, but they're plain - khaki pair and blue pair. Closest I can find now is Zimbalooba or Tinga Tingas but they don't come anywhere near.
