Vtg 1940s WWII US Army Air Force M43 HBT Cargo Pants W38 L32 13 Star Button RARE

Exceptionally and truly rare 40 waist, field worn, WWII cargo pants with excellent wear and appearance. In the world of 1940s militaria and streetwear, this is a true holy grail piece: an original World War II era US Army M-1943 (M43) Herringbone Twill Cargo Combat Trousers from the estate of Senior Airman, Donald H Timph, who served from WWII in the US Army Air Force, through the 1960s in the USAF.

These pants feature the highly coveted, original blackened metal 13 star buttons on both the fly and the massive side bellowed cargo pockets. The classic green is faded exceptionally well after decades of field use. True vintage 1940s HBT pants in wearable sizes are nearly impossible to find, as most surviving pairs are much smaller. This pair is clearly marked on the original interior woven white tag as a highly desirable W40 L33 with the below measurements.
