Great genuine WWII US Army trousers in cotton sateen material, introduced for mountain troops in 1942. Size 32 x 33.
These tapered-leg trousers feature two slanted side pockets closing by a Conmar zipper. The two large cargo pockets on the thighs -- pleated down the middle -- are covered by wide flaps with two buttons. Both hip pockets also feature a buttoned flap. Talon zipper fly and two buttons on the waistband. The leg bottoms have elasticated foot loops to secure them into boots.
Mostly issued to the 10th Mountain Division and the First Special Service Force, these trousers would be worn with the matching mountain jacket or reversible parka or, as seen in the ETO later, with the M-1943 jacket.
In very good overall condition, the present trousers retain all original buttons and zippers in working order.
