Hello,

I have this ''hose'' in my collection, but i wonder what it is. I have buy in Poland last year, it is dirty an damaged. Is this a sleeping hose or maybe from a camp? The strukure is like fishbone.

They look like "Hospital" issue trousers for military medical facilities

Is the tag not a big red flag....?

In the museum I work for we have two examples of Concentrationcamp/forced labour trousers. Both look different than this one.

These are not from a KL, but are maybe pyjamas or hospital cloths. But from when and where exactly??

This pattern was used after the War as well, I am not sure about the tag date but it is similar to BW clothing. They are not for a KL prisoner etc. whatever they are.

These type of pant were used in Polish hospitals and Polish Army postwar as well.

Guys thanks a lot for the help.
About where i buy it; it was near Wroclow, about 100 km from Thersienstadt KL and near Auschwitz/Krakau.

There is a little industry of selling "KZ" items around camp areas, the location does not really indicate what something was. Almost all of th original camp clothing was burned for fear of Typhus and very very few original items survived

heer hospital uniform is different-and not just one colour stripe...this looks like a non heer/kz item.

I believe the "50" on the tag is a size not a date.
