Detailed Solution

Jacobins who did not wear knee breeches were known as the sans-culottes.
Many Jacobins chose to start donning long, striped pants that resembled those worn by dock workers. This was done to distinguish themselves from the fashionable social classes, particularly the nobles who wore knee breeches. It served as a sign that the power held by those who wore knee breeches had come to an end. The term "sans-culottes," which translates to "those without knee breeches," came to refer to these Jacobins. Sans-culottes men furthermore donned a red cap that represented liberty.
