RARE Vintage 1980s does 1940s Deadstock Khaki Cotton Twill Expedition Cargo Utility Shorts w Pockets -- Choose Your Pair!
♛Details
•Highlights: these pieces of history are from the 80s and have never been worn; wonderful cut mimics classic Hepburn, military drill, and Out of Africa-influenced pieces; slash pockets; front + back button cargo pockets; front button fly closures; amazing quality you won't find in modern for this price point
Unworn -- these were marketed and sold alongside military surplus to folks who wanted the look but in a brand new piece :) -- note: there's some minor variation among the original tags and not many have that additional hangtag, but all are the exact same short
•Colors: the color wasn't captured well but these are that perfect classic khaki tan
•Fabric(s): twill-woven pure cotton, made in the USA
•Lined: no
•Closures: front button fly
•Designer/Labels: Gung Ho, made in the USA...according to some of the hangtags, they've been around since the 1926 (???)
All accessories (belts, jewelry, crinolines, pins, etc.) are for style inspiration only unless indicated.
♛Measurements
These are the measurements of the garment taken flat and doubled. Be sure to take your waist measurement at the top of the short's rise (center crotch measured up to waist). Add a little wiggle room for a great comfy fit! The belt loops can also be used to add your own belt and nip the waist smaller.
Measure the rise against your body to see where the waist will hit on you, then encircle this area with your measuring tape and add a little room. You can simulate fit of the short's various dimensions by encircling them with the tape using these measurements.
There's little to no stretch to these! Make sure you allow room for every dimension so you are comfy!

♛Condition
Unworn/deadstock with tags. 40+ years old.
I didn't see any overt flaws or issues across this group. A few showed subtle shelf soiling that will lift with first cleaning. Nothing overt!
It's reasonable that there could be a tiny imperfection or sign of their age, easily missed. I make every effort to inspect and cull out items aren't up to snuff.
Sold as-found and with tags attached. Dry cleaning or laundering is not included in our price, but these can be cared for simply, like any well-made modern piece.
