A rare and characterful pair of 1930s workwear shorts in a soft, faded blue fabric. The style includes a high waist, side button fastening and elasticated legs, typical of utility or under-work garments from the era. The fabric feels softer than standard workwear—likely a cotton-linen blend—with a beautifully worn-in texture and subtle sheen. Both front pockets feature small button flaps, adding to their practical, no-nonsense design.
Features • Faded blue tone with soft handle • Likely cotton/linen blend – supple and lighter than typical workwear twill • Side button fastening with original buttons • Two front patch pockets with buttoned flaps • High waist and gathered hems • Unlined
Measurements Waist: 29" Hip: 35" Rise: 16" Side Length from waist: 14" (waist to hem)
Condition Good vintage condition with some gentle signs of age including slight fading and a few tiny marks. All buttons are intact.
A beautiful and rare piece of early women’s workwear—soft, utilitarian and full of quiet strength.
