The  colour  was  chosen because  the  troops  often acted  as  scouts out in the open  when involved in infantry  assaults. The  trousers  had two slanted  pockets  to the hip  with scalloped  flaps  secured  by  a single black plastic button.   The  waffen  SS  version  had  different  shaped  pocket  flaps  but  all patterns  were used  by  both the  Heer and  the  Waffen SS.   This  happened with most uniforms  during the  war and its important not to  take  a black and white perspective  on whats  correct and what is not. Wartime  expediency  took priority. The Heer stug trousers also includes a watch pocket  was also  featured  to the  front between  the pocket  and the  fly. Five  small  buttons  secured  the fly. The  trouser legs were  tapered given a  bloused effect  when  worn with   a pair  of  low  boots. There  were a  few variations to the ankle configuration with  most coming  with  foot  ties and stirrups.  These helped in holding  the bloused  cuffs inside  the ankle  boots. Most  field  trousers  were issued  with an internal  belt  and  with a pronged buckle  so no need for braces. Militaria Net Heer Stug trousers  offers  all the  features  of  an original set.
