What pants do you use...

[tankdriver]

I have always worn Roebuck's Best Khaki Work pants, for doing Vehicle displays. They were the closest pants to the WW2 uniform pants, that I did not mind getting greasy, oily, or dirty. Do not want repo ones, just something a store sells.

As Roebuck's are no long sold, what you most of you guys use now?

Thanks

repop overalls, but our units a tanker outfit. of course trying to mitigate the old fat fart factor, is always a challenge, weve discussed putting together a T-shirt outfit, that ID's us as "tour guides" so we dont look like old fat farts in uniform. but havent gotten that far yet.

Tan Dickies usually work ok for the dirty pants idea... They are close, but stitch nazis may get ya...

I usually wear my USMC cammo set as I do mainly Marine displays with my WC 51.

I don't want to do a commercial, but...

I discovered Duluth Trading Companies "Firehose Canvas" work pants. They have a regular jeans version and ones with cargo pockets.

I use the green ones...I think they have khaki...

They are stiff when new, but soften up, but they are tough and heavy.

I get the originals, though they offer a "flex " version, those have spandex and don't feel right.

I like them because they resist tears and are very comfortable...a bit pricey though...good luck

Thanks for the replies.

These are for a display, not are-enactment. Airshows, car shows, museum displays, and such. I have repo uniforms for re-enactment.

I REALLY miss my Roebuck's. They were kinda that golden darker Khaki rather than the newer lighter Khaki.

Oh well.... Time marches on......
