American WW2 M37 Enlisted man’s wool trousers, often called mustards.
These where the standard combat trousers worn in Europe throughout WW2 by the US army.
These where standard issue in 1938 and where worn in the Normandy invasion. Issued to Infantry, Rangers, Air Force, Glider troops and Armoured Infantry etc.
The M1937 wool trousers (mustards) where worn as part of the combat uniform when used with the likes of the M41 jacket and wool shirt and was also worn as part of the dress uniform when worn with the Class A 4 pocket tunic. The colour of the M37 trousers and the A class tunic do not match, this is correct and is historically accurate.
These are made from a specially blended and dyed wool (90% wool, 10% polyester) fabric exclusively for Kay Canvas and are the correct weight, feel and colour of the original war time trousers (these do not look or feel like felt fabric like some other replicas).
