What material are the trousers made from?
The trousers are constructed from 100% cotton heavy sateen. The cargo pockets are made from canvas. This combination of materials contributes to their durability.
How do the cargo pockets fit on the leg?
The para cargo pockets are placed low on the legs. This placement can give the wearer a stubby-legged appearance. Some have chosen to remove and relocate the pockets higher on the leg, at the front pocket seam.
What is the length of the trousers?
The trousers are super long, and the leg length is a common concern. They are designed as one size fits all for length, with the appropriate waist size. Hemming the trousers is often necessary for a better fit.
What is the quality of the buttons?
The buttons may need to be restitched as they can appear weak. There is a possibility of them popping off, especially under strain. Reinforcing the buttons upon receipt is a practical step.
What period do these trousers represent?
These are reproductions of M1943 trousers, specifically as modified for paratrooper use. They are suitable for WWII and Korean War reenactment. The fabric looks and feels authentic to the period.
