New US Army M-1943 Herringbone Cotton Camouflage Pants (Modified) Pants&trousers

In early 1943, the Army produced a small number of split two-piece Herringbone (HBT) duck hunting camouflage uniforms, based on the M-1942 HBT work uniform, with standardized pants of simple design for ease of production, with a storage pocket on each thigh and adjustable drawstrings at the legs.

Bronson's version is based on the historical data and envisioned a "modified version of the frog skin camouflage pants", equipped for armored units in the Eastern Theater of Operations, adjusted to the framework of the M-43 camouflage pants, with the addition of practical side pockets, storage pockets on the front side, and a kangaroo pocket on the hips for easy access to the goods. High rise, loose silhouette for substantial movement, and round holes in the legs of the pants for string or wire, and for drying after washing.

The combat suit has to meet the functional requirements, including the function of storage and easy access to items. Our alterations everywhere are designed to be well thought out and make practical sense, with no unnecessary and pointless designs.
