G'day All

Here's a plastic button pair with the gas flap, these mostly come with the rivet star buttons

I think the WAC uniforms have plastic buttons this appears to be just a regular pair though, Nice set!

Cheers Ben
these are deffo not WAC
Female clothing always button up on the opposite side

Very Nice set of HBT's.
I have an older Marine at work who has a set of HBT utilities I have been trying for a couple of years to get from him. He keeps saying he wants to keep them a little longer...........I can wait!
Thanks For sharing those pic's

Did you buy up on them? I did a similar thing in the late 90's when WW2 Aussie wool jackets popped up.
Also the jackets 2nd and 3rd patts popped up here and also scored lots of these for a fiver each

I think i bought 3 pairs and used them for work as they were comfy and hard wearing, alas all worn out and gone now! first of the modern cargo combat pants IMO.
