    Pants fieldgrey red piping value?

    Have the chance to get those, but have no idea of their value. They lock more tan on the images than inlife, although the fieldgrey has faded.
    Thanks in advance.

            I like the item but the condition is not the best...I wouldn't pay more than 200,-......

              This reply is a bit late, but I like these trousers. From wartime photos, one gets the impression that corduroy trousers were a fairly common replacement for their Feldgrau wool counterpart. But like all wartime trousers, they have become scarce due to their practicality and the postwar depression. This is the first corduroy pair I have seen. I did not know that they came with red piping, so this an interesting find.

              The lighter markings appear to be good, but I think the Bekleidungsamt marking has been spuriously added. It looks like it was hand done rather than stamped. You can even see where the ink really soaked in when the "artist" stopped at the corners. Considering that and the used condition, I still think the trousers are valuable and would work nicely for an impression of a reservist, Landwehr or Landsturm man.
