Product description

Modern combat pants made purely for field use instead of prancing around in parades. Packed with neat and functional details, these are a bit more pricey than your usual surplus articles, but truly worth the money. Nothing fancy, just 100% pure practical functions, this is great!

As with the Felin combat smock, the pants are equally practical with a roomy fit and some well-designed features. These are the hot-weather (S2) variants of the T4 pants. Let's go through it in detail:

  • Roomy cut all the way down the legs
  • Zipper fly
  • Elastic velcro adjustment tabs on the waist
  • Sturdy belt loops for 50 mm / 2" belts
  • Drawcords on the leg cuffs
  • Double fabric inner ankle, knees, and seat
  • Two regular slash pockets on the sides
  • Two cargo pockets with "Canada" buttons and a folding mouth to prevent stuff from falling out.

Size info

The numbers represent a recommended waist size range of the user. The waistband of the pants is equal to the larger of these numbers e.g. size 85-92 has a 92 cm waistband (36").

The letters represent the user's length so that M is regular, L is longer and C is shorter. Then there's the shortest XC. Let's learn some French:

  • Very Short - Extra Court (> 158 cm or below 5' 2")
  • Short - Court (159 - 168 cm or 5' 2" to 5' 6")
  • Medium - Moyen (169 - 178 cm or 5' 2" to 5' 10")
  • Tall - Long (< 179 cm or taller than 5' 11")

    • Due to the high waist and generous inseam length, it doesn't matter if you're a bit taller than recommended.

    Materials

    Made of lightweight 67/33 cotton-polyester blend with ripstop reinforcement, weight 210 g/m2. Most if not all buttons are extremely practical large Canadian-style buttons. (Some pants may have regular buttons here or there, still sewn with great care so they're good to go.)

    Note! The fabric has an anti-insect treatment. In the case of military surplus, this is most certainly permethrin, though it doesn't explicitly say so. It has been used for a couple of decades with good success so it's well-proven, but very harmful to cats so keep your felines and Felins separated.

    French military surplus

    Unissued or barely used. These have been made in the '00s so these are not too old either!

    In my opinion, these are some of the best combat pants for their cut and feel. The light, comfy material used in their construction allows them to be breathable in muggy environments as does the loose fitting. However with the addition of a single underlayer and secure boot blousing they become fantastic for colder climates due to their ability to trap warm air and body heat in the space between the underlayer and trousers. The pockets are very roomy, but by design, meant for light objects like maps, keys, wallets, etc. if one wishes to move dynamically without being bumped on the legs. One of the best features is the velcro elastic strap on the waistline which gives the pants amazing flexibility for sizing and personal feel even without a belt. To top it all off, the material is so comfortable that it proves no issue to go commando underneath. I've personally bought 5 pairs for myself and an additional for my girlfriend.
