Cotton summer pants

[MD Helmets]

Anyone have any concerns about this pair of pants? The stitching looks new to me. Maybe it's just a mint pair. Any help is appreciated! Thanks

Let me know if more pics are needed.

Hi, maybe they are mint but i find them just too new.
Probably just my impression and opinion but they put me off a bit.
Cheers

I am finding a lot of loose threads in the stitching, typical of newly made pants. Only a hint of that old musty attic smell. The fabric is rather stiff too.

They appear to be ww1 US ridding pants in good shape authentic in my opinion. I saw the same pear last week down to even about the same size do you mind me asking where you got them

eBay, of all places. There is a timeframe for return so I figured I would get them first and check them out. I'm havig mixed feelings. They are also too minty for any of my tunics.

I've seen some real mint ones like this before they might be 20s at the latest but I have a feeling they are nice originals

Thanks for the comments, Gel. Hopefully someone else drops by to lend an opinion.
