Scope and content

Front fastening, white trousers made from a heavy, cotton drill fabric. Trousers have a button fly with four plastic buttons leading to a double hook and bar fastening at the waist. On each side of the waistband, at each hip, are tabs that can be adjusted using buckles to make the trousers tighter. These then fasten in place with a button. On the inside of the waistband are six plastic buttons to which braces can be attached. At the front of the trousers, there is a dart on each side between the fly and the pocket. Welted, in seam pockets sit at each hip.
