Product information
The Pattern 1952 was a further development of the British Work and Battle Uniform of the 1940s. It was made out of a sturdy 12oz Selvage denim and had the distinct 1940s features. This was the most recognisable big leg pocket and the smaller first aid pocket at the hip. Since it was meant to be worn over a wool attire the fit was accordingly wide. We have reproduced the fabric after an original pair of trousers in our archive. For more comfort and and easier wear the trousers have been prewashed.

Note for pants:
Measurements provided are of the product when laid flat, not as worn on a body.
WAIST: We measure the waist with the fly buttoned, spread flat on a surface, and given a light stretch tp remove any wrinkles and give a natural waist reading. The waist is then measured straight across the top of the waistband.
FRONT RISE: With the fly buttoned, we measure starting from the crotch seam to the top of the waistband following the fly, giving the front rise a slight pull to remove wrinkles and give a natural measurement.
BACK RISE: Measuring from the same point as the front rise, we measure from the crotch seam to the back waistband, following the rear seam on the seat.
HEM: The hem is measured in the same manner, laying flat on a surface and measurements taken from the external sem to internal seam at the leg opening.
