Does anyone have an original pair?
I've been studying these for a while and am fairly confident with their construction. Want to make a pair.
My uncle served on CV-11 during the war and I would likely stencil his name. These would be my third pair of trousers(1st was M-42s and recently, a repro of my favorite Lucky dungarees I've been wearing daily).
I have a pattern made from pre-war undress whites and I think they are quite similar except for the patch pockets. Wanting to make the single seam patch pocket version first and the earlier slash pockets later.
Wondering if any possessing member might take some simple measurements for me.
I posted on USMF but it has gone ignored(somewhat understandably) and Denim Bros is more about other vintage styles.
Just a long shot. If nothing else, I can extrapolate from online pics.
