What you fail to understand is that where the pants came from is not the issue. The fact is they wore them. You have tried, foolishly, to argue they were "assimilated" into Babylonian culture. THAT is a leap of faith! There is as much evidence of that as there is for godly women wearing pants!
The Jews were threatened by Haman and saved by a Esther. The Jews were threatened because they maintained their identity. The Hebrew young men were thrown into the fiery furnace for maintaining their Jewish Identity. In this identity, it was okay for a man to wear pants.
I guess I will try to type slower next time...
