Luftwaffe Non-Reversible Winter Trousers
Luftwaffe Non-Reversible Winter Trousers (Winterhose). The winter parka's and trousers were standard issue items and were distributed to all EM/NCO’s for the winter season, (15 September to 15 April), with other winter garments and were to be returned to the units clothing depot in April for storage, repair and cleaning to be reissued the following September. This is a pair of non-reversible Luftwaffe grey winter trousers. They are lined with a blanket type lining. The trousers are heavily tailored, it's hard to tell if this was done during the war or early post-war for civilian usage. Take a look at the photos. The trousers are showing normal traces of usage. The trousers were designed large enough to fit over the standard service uniform and will fit a mannequin easily. Nice pair of winter trousers, due to them being tailored priced accordingly!
These trousers originate from the collection of the recently closed Eyewitness Museum and were in display in the diorama in the last picture!
