[~60's] East German Army Blumentarn Camouflage Sniper Trousers Size.2 "NVA"

Payment in 1962,This will be the East German army's "Blumentan Camouflage Snipert Routhers."

The Nationale Volksarmee/NVA was a unified military organization that served as a regular army of the German Democratic Republic (East Germany) from 1956 to 1990, and was one of the main forces of the Warsaw Pact.

Its establishment was officially established in 1956, based on the "KVP (Kasernierte Volkspolizei)" which was developed as an armed police after World War II.

The organization was centered around the Army (Luftstreitkräftte), Air Force/Air Defense (Luftstreitkräftteidigung), and Navy (Volksmarine), and the Border Force (Grenztruppen) was an independent unit under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Defense, and was responsible for border security.

Throughout the Cold War, the NVA was recognized for its highly disciplined, thorough training and orderly command as a front-line nation facing the NATO army, and while its large-scale practical application was limited, it was known for its readiness and high control.
Strategically, based on the joint plan of the Warsaw Treaty Organization, mobilization plans, equipment standardization and joint exercises are being carried out, and a system has been established to prepare for both land defense and alliance missions.

Prior to the reunification of Germany in 1990, the NVA was dismantled, and some personnel were confirmed and incorporated into the Bundeswehr, and equipment was disposed and redeployed.
This will result in the transition of German military organizations, which had been divided between the East and West, to unity, and NVA history will close with the end of the Cold War.

From the East German army, we would like to introduce Snypert Routhers, which uses the floral motif "Blumentarn Camouflage" throughout.

"Blumentarn Camouflage" is also known as the "M58 Flächentarn Pattern" and is a camouflage pattern from the early Cold War period, provided by East German Army (NVA) and Ministry of Interior (MDI) forces from 1956 to 1967.

As its name suggests, it is characterized by organic spots reminiscent of "Blumen" and irregular spots of blue-green, olive green and brown colour overlap on the ground color based on field gray, increasing the visual division effect outdoors.

Some have confirmed a lighter color variation, and some have been coated with anti-gas chemicals depending on the application and manufacturing lot.

This pattern is used in a variety of official supplies, including jackets, trousers, equipment, shelter half (tent pieces), hoods, helmet covers, etc.
Based on practical operational purposes, everything from the selection of pocket arrangements, reinforced stitching, and metal fittings are designed using functional standards.

Of course, the camouflage pattern is included, but the details of this individual are also typical of military items, giving it a logical and rugged impression.

The front is a button front design.
The buttons are basically sheet metal with a "pebble pattern" that is typical of the German army, and are characterized by uneven surfaces that are not slippery even with wet hands.

The waist area is a simple construction with no belt loops or suspender buttons.

The front waist has exposed button flap pockets arranged symmetrically.
The large-diameter buttons are suitable for quick opening and closing, and are designed to allow for immediate access to small items.

The left and right slash pockets are "penetrating" with button fastening.

The overtrowsers' operating philosophy is strongly reflected in which hands are put into a uniform or inner layer layered underneath.

There is also a cargo pocket with a flap for ample capacity on the thigh.

The knees are reinforced with double knee fabric, and the back hips are reinforced with large seat reinforced.
It improves wear resistance in areas that are overworked when creeping forward or kneeling.

A drawstring is attached to the hem.
It has been used to ensure field-based variability, such as covering it over and squeezing it over the boots to prevent wind from entering, and combined with the outer reinforced panels, the hem has also been enhanced.

On the inside, you can see the "NVA" notation, which certifies the East German army, as well as the size notation and stamps for the year of payment.

The silhouette is "thick straight" that is typical of military pants.

The rise is deep, the waist is stable, and the thighs are spacious and the straight line falls straight towards the hem.
By tightening the drawstring at the hem, you can create a tapered look that goes along with the boots.

The straight silhouette emphasizes vertical lines and makes your legs look straight and long, creating a beautiful balance regardless of your body type.

While it has the inclusiveness unique to Overtausers, the panel switching and large pocket arrangement create visual vertical shading, making it less unsophisticated.

This individual is made of "100% cotton" fabric.

The tightly woven plain weave (poplin-like) fabric has a dry touch that combines lightness and firmness.
Despite its rugged toughness, the surface is uniform and smooth, and the texture is rough and has a subtle elegance.

Although it is a practical material, the fibers loosen up as you wear and wash them and naturally blend in with your body, and the edges of the print show bites and rubbing over time.
The hardness is moderately removed and the fabric grows to a supple and falls out.

Size notation is "2"
I think it falls in the "L" size in Japanese size.

Even when looking at the actual measurements, the size is large, so even people with large figures can wear it without any problems.

Originally designed for over-trousers, designed to be worn over a uniform, the size of each individual is generally larger.

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

Among the many vintage military items, this is a rare version of the East German Army (NVA), which symbolizes the Cold War.

The "Blumentarn" is known for its short-lived and limited edition offering, and is a irresistible piece for camouflage lovers, with a full cover of camouflage.

This is a perfect piece not only as the core of your wardrobe, but also as a collection piece.
This is a rare item that is rarely available at our shop, so if you are looking for it, don't miss this opportunity.
