    trouser size markings

    Hey guys,
    I know how to read the tunic size markings, in say an M40 tunic, but I don't know how to read trouser size markings.
    For instance here are readings on a pair of M43 kielhosen:

    180 184 (I think?)
    82 88
    116 102
    E.43

    I'm guessing that width and inseam are in there somewhere--can anybody help?
    Thanks in advance, Lee

    82=inside lenght of leg 88=width of waist


    116=lateral lenght of leg 102=width of seat

    180 and 184 mean that these trousers fit a soldier 1,80/1,84 tall!
    No need to say that E43 means that these trousers were stocked in Erfurter bekleidungs lager in 1943

    Hope it helps!
