Hi, I found it in the 1999 catalogue, page 99.
It came in three sizes.
Catalogue numbers 495/3/11, 495/3/14 and 495/3/18.
Colours in the catalogue were red, yellow and orange over darker pull up bottoms.
Chribska was privatised in 1993, the new owner being Jiri Cerny, with Zdena Jobova as designer. There is no mention in that catalogue about the designers of the items. There are 180 pages of items.
You can get access to the catalogue through this link at the bottom of the page:
