Beautiful ceremonial surplus from modern day Great Britain. Used exclusively for ceremonial and official duties, Since such occasions are a rarity, so is the construct quality of these trousers. Made to the highest specifications for the British army, of the finest wool. These trousers see use namely by the footguards as stated on the inner label but also musicians, sergeants, and a few others.
The trousers are beautifully made and feature a wing tipped rear, a button fly and 2 decent sized waist pockets. The cuffs are slightly slanted as is the official style. The scarlet red piping is continuous on both legs. The trousers are designed to be worn with suspenders and as such you'll find several buttons on the inner waist hem. Really a fantastic piece of surplus that carries plenty of heritage just in style alone.
Stunning and bold surplus from the Royal Hussars. This British surplus is worn as a walking out dress piece for the Royal Hussars and is their unique take on the standard No. 2 dress uniform. It does feature much of the usual No. 2 design but is in a distinct crimson / burgundy colour which sets it apart from the rest.
For features you'll find 2 front waist pockets and 2 rear pockets. The trousers offer 2" belt loops or as worn by officer's internal suspender buttons. The waistband is fastened with a zipper and hook & eye closure. Each trouser leg is beautifully pleated front and back making for a timeless look even in a more unusual style.
