More finds from toot shop land!!!

this time its a pair of 68' pattern combat trousers in unissued condition!!! (they still have loose threads everywhere!!) also loads chalk marks where the pockets etc were to be attached, and either a date completed or the seamstress name chalked on!!! so I wont be washing these then!!!!!! oh also can you tell me... is the colour bleed/change on the green print normal as my 68 patt smock is not like this???? although it is old and worn so may have lost it!!???

 

oh cost me £4;)

Nice strides, beautiful condition and a great price! Yes that colour style is normal for 68 trousers of that type/era - although there were variations (hence your smock may differ slightly in pattern - even if made at a similar time).

Good afternoon all

My name is Richard (Rich) and a fair few on here will know me from various FB military groups (Forces 80, CF89 etc). I aspire to own an ex-mil Lightweight one day but in the mean time I collect British 1980's period webbing, uniform items and general kit (I have a reasonable collection). I am currently looking for rarer 90 Patt Olive Green webbing items and any trials type webbing/kit.

I am ex-Infantry - served 6 years in the regs (1 WFR) during the 80's. Now based in Stoke-on-Trent.

Thanks for having me aboard
