Only by the humans. These particular trousers have a tag suggesting manufacture in a southern Lizardman sweatshop - clearly a sibilant knockoff of reputable armor. I too had considered it a mispronunciation from the fellow from whom I purchased them, attributing it to dewlap resonance or perhaps his lack of actual lips, but it became a moot point when I decided to dive a pit looking for goodies and had to leave them on level 3 for some reason that's totally not embarrassing.
