- Material & Design Cotton blend like the original M1942 trousers with reinforced knees for durability. Includes correct Olive Drab leg ties, snap-button cargo pockets and a 5-button fly. Rear pockets with button closures and hip pockets Initially issued for Operation Torch, the M1942 trousers were used by paratroopers and continued to be worn by veterans as a symbol of distinction.
These WW2 US Reinforced Airborne M1942 Trousers are high-quality reproductions, designed for authenticity and durability.
Perfect for reenactors or collectors, these trousers replicate the uniforms worn by American paratroopers during Operation Torch and beyond, featuring reinforced knees and accurate detailing for added practicality.
The trousers include Olive Drab leg ties, as famously used by the 82nd Airborne Division, and offer a range of practical pockets, including snap-button cargo-style pockets on the legs, rear buttoned pockets, hip pockets, and a knife pocket for added convenience.
A 5-button fly and belt loops ensure a secure fit, while the overall design remains true to the original specifications.
This uniform was eventually replaced with the M43 after D-Day, however, many veterans chose to keep their M1942 uniforms as a status symbol to distinguish them from other soldiers!
