Real m40 model Summer drill pants?

[MrPotts]

I was wondering if anyone can throw me some imput regarding if these are period or not?

[MrPotts]

Well I hope they are real since I just bought them. Pretty salty

They would look great together with a battleworn tunic on a mannequin. I like these!

[MrPotts]

Actually I have a very real looking faded, reproduction tunic of this kind of material. I just wasn't sure for these being originial but they look the part. I spent like 200 bucks but maybe over paid but they have a cool look, with the field repairs. I'll get them dry cleaned or something

[harryamb2]

good.

[TrondK]

No no please dont clean them. That will ruin the "front" look. When they are used and filthy like this, it will be perfect for a front mannequin. If you clean them they loose that. There are plenty of clean pants around. Less so with old old old dirt.

OK you got it, I won't clean them. Do you think 200 is a lot for these?
