Trousers, Jumper, Parachutist, M-1942
Rare 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 snap fasteners 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.
Complete and in very good overall condition. Waist size seems to be 28.
