【BUZZ RICKSON'S "BR42290" U.S. Navy N-3 Utility Trousers】
The N-3 utility pants were adopted by the US Navy in the early 1940s. With two simple hip pockets, they have the same appearance as the M-41 pants adopted by the US Marine Corps around the same time. The "USN" marking on the hip pocket identifies them as N-3 utility pants. The buttons are black-painted doughnut-shaped tuck buttons used during the war and are engraved with a laurel wreath. When World War II broke out and the number of soldiers increased, additional production of equipment was rushed, and pants like the N-3 were made from a single material, from the lining to the pockets, to facilitate mass production.
