Estimated 1960s, French Army M47 Lizard Camo Field Trousers.
The finest expression of French Army engineering: the M-47 Field Trousers.
Regarded worldwide as a masterwork among military trousers, this is a piece that stands apart.
In silhouette, fabric, and construction alike, it surpasses other military trousers by a considerable measure.
Maison Martin Margiela famously presented the M-47 reversed and worn—a moment that crystallized its status and sparked worldwide recognition.
That numerous contemporary brands continue to reference its design speaks to a popularity that shows no signs of waning; if anything, its relevance only deepens.
For those with a conviction about owning the original vintage iteration, the authentic M-47 merits serious consideration.
What distinguishes this particular example is the Lizard Camo pattern applied throughout—a rarity among standard M-47s.
This Lizard Camo became the prototype for the American Army's Tiger Stripe pattern.
The Lizard Camo itself drew from the British Army's Brush Stroke Camo as its foundation.
A pattern born from sampling various camouflage iterations to create something new.
It is a curious phenomenon, one that illuminates the prescient vision of the British Army as the originator.
The M-47 exists in two principal variants: early and late production types.
Fabric and silhouette differ materially between them; choose according to your preference.
This example bears a single top button and herringbone twill weave, placing it among the late-production type.
The late-type silhouette tapers gently toward the hem, rendering a cargo cut that avoids heaviness and allows for a refined line.
Marked as 76M.
Waist measures 76, length marked as M.
Converted to standard M-47 sizing, this approximates a size 31.
The length runs generous; it may be worn full or rolled at the cuff with equal ease.
This is a foundational piece—the kind one should own without question.
To speak of Euro vintage without this garment is to speak incompletely. Its appeal is assured and unwavering.
Smaller sizing that aligns well with Japanese proportions is increasingly rare; this represents the proportional ideal many seek.
Interior markings suggest minimal wear—a specimen in mint condition, recommended for those drawn to preserved examples.
Smaller sizes in good condition grow scarcer and costlier each season. Should you be seeking one, the present moment may prove opportune.
