1st model green/graue wende trousers wehrmacht/ss

1st Model Wehrmacht/SS Reversible Winter Trousers (Wendehose). The trousers are reversible from green/grey to white. The winter parkas were a standard issue and were issued to all EM/NCOs for the winter season (September 15 to April 15), along with other winter clothing. They had to be returned to the unit's clothing depot in April for storage, repair, and cleaning, and reissued the following September. The trousers show normal signs of wear and some period repairs. The white side has been painted over with white paint, as is often seen on these trousers worn in combat. The trousers are not visibly marked, but the parkas are designed large enough to fit over the standard service uniform and easily fit a mannequin. A nice original example in good used and combat-worn condition!
