That looks like a nice warm outfit . What are the Buzz Deck Trousers like , heavy wool ?

Thanks for the compliments :)
the Trousers are, according to Buzz Rickson grosgrain fabric made of cotton (jungle cloth) and are the same as their N1 deck jacket (and the deck hook jacket if one asks me)
also, they do not have a lining, so you can wear them in warmer weather as well; but thanks to the dense fabric, they also make good pants to wear in cold weather, as today;
I also like the USN stencil on one of the rear pockets;

Fardin got some pairs around Christmas rather unexpectedly and when I tried a pair, I just had to have it (they are rather expensive, so I did not get one each of the color options then, only the blue one);
I dont know if the pants are available easily nowadays as decent BR stuff in bigger sizes is usually gone quickly and most of the "special" BR releases are only done for one season, but if I will spot a Khaki pair in my size somewhere, I might be tempted - those are really damn nice pants .....

Pre-production WPG A-2 from 2014 today to go to and from work. We were talking about drape in another thread yesterday and the drape on this is terrific IMHO.

I wonder why WPG stopped making them like this . I’m guessing it was to reduce their production costs .
