N-3 utility trousers and P-41’s

[blackrat2]

I am looking to get some alternatives to denims and have been looking for some repro N-3’s or P-41’s
Can anyone post up some images of ones they have in there inventory..I tried a search but images are few and far between
Have been looking at Bronson and SM Wholesale although think with shipping etc these could well be expensive
I have seen some SM ones here in the UK , do they shrink as much as they say??, how loose are they actually in the flesh compared to Beonson
Any help/pics would be really appreciated

I have WW2 Impressions P-41 trousers in a 34" waist if that it what you are looking for. I will see if I can find them. I also have probably 10 of P-41 tops, ranging from NOS to used originals, to reproductions if you are looking for those--most are size 42 but I have a couple of 40s as well.

I have washed the WW2 Impressions pants and top twice and have noticed no shrinkage. I have no experience with the SM Wholesake pants, but I have both a P41 and P42 top from them. I have washed the P41 top probably a dozen times and there hasn't been any shrinkage after the initial wash. It was minimal.

Please note, I have never dried any of them in a machine, just hang dry.

Here's a shot of my Bronson P-41's. This is after one wash and having my wife hem them. I still haven't figured out how to pair the trousers with a flight jacket without feeling like I'm attempting some sort of cosplay. Regardless, I've been very pleased with them.

Hi ! Really nice cut and you wear it very well with the boondockers . I think that the feeling of cosplay or not ,my opinion, he's just a question of perspective and style and perhaps of geolocalisation. Here in France there is not the same background with the History and Veterans etc... I heard that sometimes some guys wearing Corcoran jump boots were told by that if they weren't in the Army they do not deserve the right to wear such emblematic boots ... it's a little fanatic to my eyes. In my case I practicaly only wear boots and army cloths , but with the attention to not be a full Olive drab guy ! Cosplaying and casual wearing is a subtil balance between "it's stylish" and "it's too much" . With that sort of trousers , a A2 or whatever lever jacket could be really , nice with boondockers and a cap . The way you dress your head will determine if cosplay or not ! I'm talking too much ! Wear it as you want , if you feel good then no one will have to say nothin' about

Thanks guys for the pics and info
I am thinking trousers and possibly my shawl collar denim jacket would be a nice change from jeans …I did have some of the TCB seaman’s pants but think that was a “bridge to far” with my partner!
Juanito I will DM you ref the jackets as have been looking at these also…I believe the run kinda large so a 42 might work
Back to the trousers, SM sell them as “shrink to fit”, they seem to imply a hot wash and a tumble dry to get the desired fit?!
The Bronsons look nice and a good length on you

Does anyone (Grant) have any more images with them paired up with an A2, I also like the idea of wearing them with one but also wonder if I can carry the look off!
