The Armée française is a regular army of the Republic of France, and consists mainly of the Armée de Terre, the Navy, the Air Force and the Space Force (Armée de l'Air et de l'Espace), and the Gendarmerie nationale.

Among these, the narrowest meaning of the "Armée de Terre" has the oldest tradition, and its origin can be traced back to the medieval Cape dynasty, but the modern system of national military was established after the French Revolution (1789).

In World War I, the French army fought as the main force of the Allied powers, contributing to victory despite the great sacrifices.
In the following World War II, he was defeated in a blitz by the German army in 1940, and under the Vichy administration some forces were placed under German control, while the "Furces françaises libres" operated with the Allies under the leadership of Charles de Gaulle.

After World War II, the Fourth Republic was established in 1946, and the French army was reorganized and served in the colonial wars (such as the Indochina War and the Algerian War).
That experience also affected military doctrines during the Cold War.

The current French military remains a major international security force through the framework of the European Union, NATO and the United Nations, and is engaged in global military action, particularly through its foreign campaigns, centering on counterterrorism operations (Operation Balkan) in the Sahel region and the aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle.

This is the "Windproof Pattern" camouflage trousers used by the French army during the Algerian War.

Based on the over trousers of the UK SAS, this one seems to have been modified to improve practical operation and wearability.
It has an insurmountable appearance that coexists with ruggedness and neatness at a high level.

The base is the overtrowers of "Windproof Pattern," which the British military adopted as a sub-style denison smock.

The original was an extremely wide design because it was supposed to be layered over a uniform, but this one has been changed to a button fly, and while two tucks are added to the front, the width of the legs is neater, making it a perfect fit that can be achieved as a daily wear.

A new thin belt loop has been installed, making it easy to use with current belts, making it easy to wear even for those who are not good at drawcord designs.

Large flap cargo pockets are placed directly next to both thighs.
It is made with a sense of trust even in situations where there is a lot of stuff being put in and take them out.

The hem is made of elastic shirring.
It has excellent sealing properties when twining boots and prevents flaps at the hem, and the bulging of the gathers creates a gentle tapered to balloon-like silhouette.

Not only is it boots, but for women, we also recommend wearing it with a mixed look to match pumps or Mary Jane.

According to the documents I have, the original windproof trousers are "particularly wide cutting because the British military designed it to "wear" wool work pants.
If you apply it directly to your bare skin, it makes a sound that rubs your clothes and the shape cannot be maintained, so that France has treated the legs to be narrower.

Furthermore, "If you look at the back, you can see details of the modification. What's more practical is that a new belt loop has been created instead of the fastener. There is elastic at the hem. "The famous Algiers tailor DuPont has modified many military equipment at the orders of the unit."

In addition, various examples of renovations have been cited, such as "adjusting the waist, adding a vertical loop band, adding a "revolver pocket" at the rear, installing new large flap pockets on the left and right sides, narrower legs, elastic hem, and occasionally drawcorded."

These top and bottom sets are worn by individuals at tailors with towns and troops, and are repeated for resizing and additional modifications, and for work, going out, ceremonies, and even during combat operations.
While symbolizing the airship (TAP), it is said that there are also examples of it being used by non-airborne forces such as the Kakeeper Command.

These statements perfectly match the specifications of this individual, such as the two-tuck design, the new belt loop, the elastic hem, and the cargo arrangement, confirming that this piece is a piece that strongly reflects the field customization of the time.

Although the size indication cannot be confirmed, I think it corresponds to the "XS ~ S" size in Japanese sizes.

Even when looking at the actual measurements, the size is small, so if you have a small figure, you can wear it without any problems.

There are signs of wear such as dirt, small holes, damage to buttons, missing buttons, and repair marks, but there is no major damage that can cause problems with wearing it, so I think you can still wear it.

Retailered trousers from the Algerian War period are rarely based on British fabric and French military modifications.
This is a "talkable" book that combines both materiality and practicality.

Market distribution is also very limited, so there are very few opportunities to purchase it.

This is a perfect piece not only as a core of your wardrobe, but also as a collection piece design source.
This is a masterpiece that is rarely seen both domestically and internationally, so if you're looking for it or like rare items, don't miss this opportunity.
