I've posted a few times about my aim to collect unusual, non digital, camo patterns.
Here's the most recent update
Tibetan 03 pattern. This is allegedly Russian military issue. The Trousers are made (or marketed by) "Splav". They are rip stop, pretty good quality. They also came with a cold weather insert, which is not pictured.
They are not "OTK" marked, which is usually what I look for to see of something's really Russian military. They're roughly comparable to Nato MR sized. Bought them from Russia. Tags for the camo trousers and internal marks were in Russian. The Inserts, which are almost Nutria brown with Camo trim, are tagged and internally marked in English. They were definately made for these pants, probably by a subcontractor.
I found a store in Switzerland that actually sells surplus TAZ 90. It was a PITA because I had to pay in Francs and they weren't cheap...but here they are.
If you've ever had a pair of the alpenflage camo with the red streaks ("fruity pajamas") these are cut the same and almost identical, except for
1. A zippered cargo pocket, and
2. About a 2 inch strip of elastic sewn into the waist at each of the 3 o'clock, 6 o'clock and 9 o'clock positions.
I also bought some additional patterns I'll post pics of. Some of it surplus and some commercial.
I bought some M90 pattern trousers from Sweden which I think are made by the real deal contractor, but not 3 crown marked.
Also got some cheezy Norway pattern.
Greek Hellenic...
And some others I can't immediately recall. Will post more pics.
