Symbol of the San-colottes

score:3

Accepted answer

The Sans-Culottes were laborers and peasants and those aligned with them who were in opposition to the aristocracy. Their appellation comes from their distinctive outfit - long cotton pants commonly worn by laborers, as opposed to the knee-breeches (culottes) favored by the wealthy and hangers-on (to show off their expensive hosiery and shoes). In addition to their eponymous pants, they wore the short-skirted coat and wooden clogs also favored by commoners, and a "red cap of liberty."

I found a source trying to look up another question that I looked up that had the answer for this question. It is, that they refused to wear knee-pants.

Only to farther prove this is because the source had all the other questions relevant answers on the worksheet.
