Eric Queen Posted September 29, 2016 Share #1 Posted September 29, 2016 Can anyone tell me the relative rarity of a pair of leggings in Marine green (same as service tunic) compared the the usually encountered Army OD? Thanks a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warguy Posted September 29, 2016 Share #2 Posted September 29, 2016 Hi Eric, are you referring to the puttee wool wraps or the cotton canvas gaiters? Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Queen Posted September 29, 2016 Author Share #3 Posted September 29, 2016 The wool wraps in marine green. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warguy Posted September 29, 2016 Share #4 Posted September 29, 2016 Yeah, I have one or two pairs that came with groupings. They are hard to find for sure. I think I remember one other set offered for sale in the past three or four years ,(where the forest green color was called out anyway).I would say they are more rare than the WWI forest green pants anyway.

Eric Queen Posted September 29, 2016 Author Share #5 Posted September 29, 2016 Thanks Kevin. I appreciate that. I don't recall seeing another pair (that I noticed was marine green anyway) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tswa Posted May 11, 2020 Share #8 Posted May 11, 2020 I have a pair of those that were my grandfather's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schnicklfritz Posted August 7, 2020 Share #9 Posted August 7, 2020 I haven't found any info one way or the other, but I was told that there are some WW2 era German police puttees that are about the same forest green color as USMC forest green. Can anyone confirm or refute this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
