Not such a myth, as far as I know, it(or something similar)the KM used captured British Denim and also wool BD.
They also had their own, similar version of a work uniform, as you have illustrated.
There are a few famous photos of U-boat crew wearing British BD,
one of them (Fritz Julius Lemp, KM buttons replacing British)is in this first link:

The second link (see pp23 of the book)will show you the German version.
Read the text.

*Have a look also, at the cover of this (pdf) book for British BD, including trousers(albeit an illustration, from a photo)
