I have an early four pocket pull-over type. If anyone wants to post some pics for me leave me a PM.
Cheers,

Do you mean this type of trousers?
The waist can be closed with zippers and drawstring.
And the bottom of the trousers finish is a type of gaiter, designed to be worn over the boot.Attached Files

It's the 1st original WSS padded trousers intended to be worn with the "Charkow" pullover parka !
Hermann Historica has sold 2 of them in his last auction
IMHO the waist trousers is just closed on the hips by straps and buckles : the zippers are field modifications because the slits allow to have acces to the pockets of the feldgrau trousers worn inside !Last edited by novedvory; 11-19-2013, 07:25 AM.

I've started a new thread about these trousers ( http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...d.php?t=705191 ) to have a (nice) overview.
Best regards,
Yves
