A stylish pair of vintage 1940s European (probably German) breeches made from a fairly thick but drapey twill weave fabric which feels like a wool & rayon blend in navy blue. Cut in the classic style with very wide thighs, flat front, full-cut seat with reinforcing double panel, button fly & braces buttons with rabbit-ear rear tabs, side waist buckle adjusters, 2 front welted pockets, front watch or cash pocket & 1 rear flapped pocket, button fastened at the calf.
