few years ago I had the chance to buy a sarrouel Zouaves dated 1848. Here i some pictures of the object. It has three buttons size, a single fly. All are covered with red cloth. Originally he had blue braid along side seams legs. These have been removed. At that time some of sarrouels is not yet equipped with blue braid, since the generalization to all regiments in 1852. The lining
is very special but typical fabrications of the Second Empire, it is made of canvas shirt, unbleached cotton, with a blue stripe. It is buffered 1-48, ie the first half of 1848, and regimental rights. Below 3 and Z for the regiment of course. On the other side of the fly again reminded the regiment 3 and Z. The general section is not very different from a manufacturing third republic, cons by the magnitude of the pants is lower and corresponds to a user closer to the body of the first half nineteenth century! Does not correspond to modern sizes, it was extended at the waist by a costumer! We can see the room added between the loops of cord size.
