WH (Heer) pre-war straight legged stone grey combat field pants (Steingraue Hose für Mannschaften). Originally the long pants were produced in stone grey fabric until 1940 when regulations dictated that newly produced long pants be constructed in field-grey fabric. This is a pair of Austrian made trousers made of stone-grey wool. Due to shortages the German Army started to use Austrian made tunics on a large scale after the annaxation of Austria in 1938. The trousers have two, diagonally angled, front pockets and a small watch pocket. A strap and metal buckle is sewn on the back for tightening. The trousers are complete with all original buttons. The trousers are nicely  marked and dated 1937. The trousers are size 'G.K.2' marked which is a large size and perfect for a mannequin. The trousers are in very good, only slightly worn, condition. There are some minor (moth)damages, see photos. This would make a nice match with a slightly worn M36 jacket and would make a great 1939/1940 Poland or Holland/Belgium/France display. Extremely hard to fnd original pair pre-war stone grey trousers in very good condition!
