DESCRIPTION
Worn by Royal Air Force officers in the 1990s and 2000s, these tailored trousers were part of the service dress uniform and used for daily duties. Unlike combat fatigues, officers' trousers were bought from military-approved tailors and made to a higher standard, following the traditions of classic British suiting. They have a high-rise waist, sharp front pleats and side-tab adjusters in place of belt loops, a hallmark of British officer tailoring.
The polywool fabric, in a deep brown tone, was chosen to hold a crease and stand up to years of regular wear. Extra fabric was left in the hem so the trousers could be lengthened, allowing an officer to keep the same pair throughout his service.
