Tax included

Great and scarce genuine WWII US Army M1942 parachute jumper trousers, made in wind- and water-resistant cotton cloth, specified in February 1942 and intended for being worn with the matching jacket introduced in December 1941. This type features two side pockets, a watch pocket, two hip pockets, and two large expanding pockets with two snaps on the thighs; the left hip pocket has a button-through closure. The lining of the pockets and the inner strengthening pieces are cut from off-white cotton. The tapered legs help inserting the trousers in the jump boots.

In very good overall condition, the present trousers retain all original buttons. Size 26US.

Two wartime repairs are located on the back of the trouser.
