US HBT OD7 Overalls
During 1942 the US army found that the sage green colour they had faithfully been using during the initial years of the Second World War was no longer doing its job - it had become too light for concealment, and it was found that exposure was leading to fading of the fabric. So, after many tests and field trials, in 1943 Olive Drab #7 was introduced as its replacement.
OD no.7 is a darker shade than the sage green and was deemed much more appropriate for concealment purposes.
These repros feature:
- 100% cotton
- Herringbone Twill fabric
- Two leg pockets
- One chest pocket
- One pocket on the rear
- Leg cuffs can be adjusted with a button and loop
The suit was issued to many personnel, originally the tankies, and then later on issued to mechanics, linesmen, and General Infantry and used extensively throughout the Pacific Theatre.
Update your US impression with these Olive Drab no.7 HBT coveralls - we also have OD#7 HBT Trousers and Caps available.

The only real difference between OD7 and OD3 is that OD7 is a darker shade of Olive due to the redesign of the coveralls later in the war. The sizes are ample to your chest size. If you are a Large (42-44) but you are a 42 chest there will be a little bit more room for you to fit into.Answered by Admin on 18 Oct 2022
