This is a pair of WWII German Luftwaffe unlined summer flight trousers (Fliegerhose) constructed from stiff, heavy-grade olive-green cotton canvas/twill. Key technical details include an integrated canvas suspender system with adjustable metal ladder buckles, an elasticized high back waist, an offset zipper fly closure, and adjustable buckle straps at the ankle cuffs. The fly features a silver-tone metal ZIPP slider pull with a double-pin locking mechanism, along with stamped PRYM 6 metal snap fasteners along the protective storm flap. The interior waistband exhibits hand-written ink size numbers (48) and a sewn cloth manufacturer/issue label. The heavy canvas remains notably stiff and rigid to the touch—typical of unwashed, heavy-weight wartime flight canvas—with generalized age patination and a large, visible stain on the upper left rear leg/seat area. Waist measures 34 inches. PM
