Concentration camp trousers
These concentration camp trousers were worn by concentration camp inmates during World War II.
The trousers are made of a German ‘Drillich’ fabric with white and blue printed stripes.
This type of trousers was worn by inmates from May to October.
From November to April, winter clothing was worn which was made of slightly thicker material.
These trousers have German zinc buttons and a light brown inner lining.
An interesting detail, the color difference in the trouser legs.
It often happened that different pieces of fabric were used on one piece of clothing.
This pair of trousers were found in the area of Amersfoort in the Netherlands, but the exact wearer is unknown.
