ww2 german officer pants ???

[matthewtanner]

Hi all I was wondering on peoples opinion on these apparently German ww2 pants . I'm guessing by the design they are riding breeches. They have come up locally and the person says they were bought back from ww2 from her dad and have been sitting in the shed in a box as long as she can remember. Her father has pasted away so she is getting rid of ithem. she says that there is no marking visible inside the pants on the cloth . except there is on the clip that holds the pants together above the fly area that say's TRADE MARK and then there is a crown stamped /picture . It's over an hour drive away and was wondering peoples opinions before I make the drive to have a look myself .I Don't know enough about ww2 German uniforms but thought they may be British because of the English ??? I have no Idea though . any help would be great thanks

Hi Matty, I can tell you they are not British issue.

[matthewtanner]

is there any other questions I should ask before I make the hour trip for a look ?

[Adrian Stevenson]

Hi Matty, I don't recognise these as German.

Cheers, Ade.

[matthewtanner]

OK
cheers ade

[matthewtanner]

does anyone have any ideas where these are from then if not german ???

[Adrian Stevenson]

IF they are not German, which I cannot confirm 100% (Just never seen a German pair with this style of leg closesure) I would be tempted to say Swiss going by the colour.

Cheers, Ade.
