    Not very common, but how to find the rest ..?

    All blue luft tropical stuff is hard to find.
    Think these are items for the advanced "blue tropical items" collector, to start with it would be a long way IMO..
    6 pannel blue tropical pith helmet, blue cotton overseas cap, blue canvas tropical long boots, shirt, tunic, all the blue webbing etc.., where to find ?
    I'd like to see a complete "blue" tropical mannequin though, something I've never seen.

    Any pics ?

        Hi there!

        Are you shure that they wasn't cut off from a long pair?

        Cheers!

                    Nice!
                    The high folded legs tells all... I agree, these are born in its shorts feature.

                          Not realy ..

                          The fact that I think that it was a long pair is that one of the sizes in the waist band says 114, which stands for the total length of the trousers IMO.
                          They're the way they should look, so most probably era done though.

                          Any other thoughts ?

                              Jos, don't you have a pair of long blue straight legs to compare them to in manufacture? I've owned a pair of these shorts before and from what I remember, the construction was absolutely the same.

                              I found a link to them: http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...ghlight=shorts

                              Interesting that the manufacturer is the same on both pairs.
