WW2 US USMC Original Issue Green Air Tex Boxer Shorts UNWORN

This item is a pair of original issue U.S. Marine Corps boxer shorts, produced during World War II. Manufactured from green Air Tex cellular cotton fabric, these shorts feature a distinctive lightweight and breathable construction, favored for comfort and practicality in warm climates. The material displays the characteristic perforated weave commonly used in US military undergarments of the period. The waistband is adjustable, typically with a cotton drawstring, and the shorts are cut in a classic mid-thigh length. These boxer shorts remain unworn and retain their original color and finish. Issued as part of standard USMC personal equipment, such garments were distributed to servicemen both stateside and in overseas theaters. In well-preserved, unused condition, this example provides a representative specimen of mid-20th-century US military clothing and illustrates the emphasis placed on functional uniform components during World War II.
