US HBT OD7 Overalls - Military Armed Forces Olive Drab Reproductions

US HBT OD7 Overalls During 1942 the US army found that the sage green colour they had faithfully been using during the initial years of the Second World War was no longer doing its job - it had become too light for concealment, and it was found that exposure was leading to fading of the fabric. So, after many tests and field trials, in 1943 Olive Drab #7 was introduced as its replacement. OD no.7 is a darker shade than the sage green and was deemed much more appropriate for concealment purposes. These repros feature: 100% cottonHerringbone Twill fabricTwo leg pocketsOne chest pocketOne pocket on the rearLeg cuffs can be adjusted with a button and loop The suit was issued to many personnel, originally the tankies, and then later on issued to mechanics, linesmen, and General Infantry and used extensively throughout the Pacific Theatre.
