If you don’t have the Amiibo, you can still get your hands on the Trousers of Awakening by completing the accompanying side quest; Misko's Treasure of Awakening II.

The riddle Misko gives you on the second leg of the Armor of Awakening treasure hunt reads as follows:

“In the ruins of Hyrule Field, where warriors once tested themselves in battle, offer your soldier’s claymore to the two sculpted soldiers. The sword will point the way to my treasure.”

The location Misko is hinting to is the Coliseum Ruins in South Hyrule Field. You can get there by gliding southwest from Hyrule Field Skyview Tower, or by riding northeast from Outskirt Stable.

Coliseum Ruins coordinates: -1173, -1310, 0046.

The Coliseum Ruins are guarded by a Thunder Gleeok, so you will have to come prepared for a fight with a good stash of strong weapons and eyeballs.

Once you clear out that nasty enemy, make your way over to the southern wall where you will find two soldier sculptures. Pick up the soldier’s claymore lying on the ground beside the soldier on the right and place it back on the statue.

As soon as you place the sword back in its rightful place, a large hole will open up in the ground leading to the Coliseum Ruins Cave.

Coliseum Ruins Cave coordinates: -1166, -1303, 0046.

Drop down into the cave below to find the treasure chest containing Misko’s treasure: The Trousers of Awakening.
