Don't leave home without this, either. You are so cool. In 1975, Black Panther Eldridge Cleaver tried to reintroduce the codpiece to 20th-century male fashion apparel. His purpose, he said, was to “solve the problem of the fig leaf mentality," arguing that "clothing is an extension of the fig leaf.” Variously called “Cleaver pants,” “the Cleavers,” and :”the Cleaver sleeve,” his designer jeans incorporated a combination codpiece-penis sheath that, according to one description of the accessory, could “accommodate a two-pound linguiça.” His attempt to reintroduce the codpiece did not catch on. en.wikipedia.org
