Up for sale is an authentic, beautifully tailored pair of vintage mid-century uniform motorcycle patrol or cavalry riding breeches (jodhpurs), sourced directly from a Warner Bros. Studio wardrobe archive clearance sale. Featuring the iconic dramatic flared "peg-top" thighs and a striking light grey side stripe running down the outer leg seams, these trousers are built from a premium, heavyweight midnight navy uniform gabardine wool fabric.
This pair features fantastic physical evidence of its Hollywood history, including custom studio markings and production codes stamped right onto the inner waistband lining. Perfect for vintage motorcycle enthusiasts, state trooper/highway patrol collectors, historical reenactors, or theatrical costume departments looking for authentic Golden Age uniform pieces.

Sizing & Measurements

Condition
Good Vintage Condition. The heavy uniform fabric is thick, rigid, and holds its dramatic flared silhouette perfectly. The main structural seams are strong, the back slit pockets are clean, and all original buttons are securely attached at the fly, inner waistband, and ankle cuffs.
Please Note (Condition Disclosures):
- There are two small moth holes/nips located on the fabric near one of the lower ankle cuffs (clearly visible in close-up photos). The fabric remains structurally stable and can be easily mended or hidden inside a boot.
- There is very minor, faint surface storage soiling/dust smudging on the light grey fabric side stripe near the upper hip area.
- This item is sold in its authentic, unaltered studio-vault condition; we have not attempted to dry clean or spot-treat it.
