An incredible pre-Pearl Harbor USMC rarity! Up for sale is an original matching pair of U.S. Marine Corps canvas leggings (gaiters) safely dated to August 1941. This pair comes in the highly sought-after and rare Size 4, making it highly desirable for modern reenactors. Adding immense historical value are the stenciled identities of two different Marines on the inside (RENNA. F. and VALLEY. A. J.), showing honest field reissue. All brass hooks, eyelets, and straps are 100% complete and undamaged. Laces are missing. A prime centerpiece for an early-war Marine Corps display!

Early-war Marine Corps history stamped into canvas.

  • USMC Contract: Unlike standard US Army M1938 leggings, these feature the correct Marine Corps pattern, shade of tan canvas, and the distinct single-digit sizing system (Size 4).

  • Pre-Pearl Harbor Provenance: The interior retains its original depot inspector stamp dated August 1941, meaning these leggings were issued just as the USMC was rapidly expanding before entering WWII.

  • The Story of Two Marines: The inside clearly displays the lineage of this pair, featuring the names of two users: RENNA . F. and VALLEY . A. J..

  • Condition: Beautifully field-worn with no canvas rot or tears. The under-boot straps and brass buckles are fully intact and functional. All lacing eyelets and hooks are complete. Laces are missing but easily replaced with period-correct cord.
