History and product  details

The  feld hose  were  of  course  black  wool trousers  and  were based on  ski trousers   from  the pre war period.  A similar  cut to  these  ski trousers   was  used with  a comfortable  loose  fit. The  trousers  had two slanted  pockets  to the hip  with scalloped  flaps  secured  by  a single black plastic button.   The  waffen  SS  version  had  different  shaped  pocket  flaps  but  all patterns  were used  by  both the  Heer and  the  Waffen SS.   This  happened with most uniforms  during the  war and its important not to  take  a black and white perspective  on whats  correct and what is not. Wartime  expediency  took priority.

A   watch pocket  was also  featured  to the  front between  the pocket  and the  fly. Five  small  buttons  secured  the fly. The  trouser legs were  tapered given a  bloused effect  when  worn with   a pair  of  low  boots. There  were a  few variations to the ankle configuration with  most coming  with  foot  ties and stirrups.  These helped in holding  the bloused  cuffs inside  the ankle  boots. Most  field  trousers  were issued  with an internal  belt  and  with a pronged buckle  so no need for braces.
