I ordered, paid and wore this item today (it's not an old item or an old order I mean) and it seems it's not saving.
"A warm pair of black suede pants fails to glow briefly." And it was indeed dropped when I <quit>.
Maybe crafters that aren't as prominent as say bubba should be checked for lack of integration with the save changes?

That kind of item needs to be updated to save.
Please write a bug report on the item or in the room where they're ordered.

Cool, will do when I return there I guess. :)

So you dropped your pants? ;)

You keep it in yours, mister! :P

I've had a similar problem with quivers, doesn't matter where I get them. They don't save, but arrows do, and if they're removed without explicitly entering <remove quiver> they become unwearable, but also unremovable at the same time. Sent a bug report about it too
