What is the Japanese (onomatopoeic) sound that corduroy pants make?

Question

Would this be the correct way to ask in Japanese?

"コージュロイズボンは何の音をするのですか"

Now I want to know… what sound do they make‽

"コージュロイズボンは何の音をするのですか"

I would say...

コーデュロイパンツはどんな音が｛しますか / するんですか / するのですか｝？

@Chocolate I'm sure I'm just being stupid but why is it が and not を?

@user3856370 音がする is the idiom for saying "to make a sound". If you're thinking コージュロイズ is the subject, that would sound very odd in Japanese, as if the corduroys had a life of their own.
