French Army M52 chino trousers, estimated 1960s.
These pieces exist in early and late production variants; this is a late-period example.
The back pockets feature the flap closure characteristic of the later iteration.
Size 21—a compact, increasingly rare golden size.
Smaller examples, in both waist and inseam, are becoming scarcer with each passing year.
Size 21, in particular, remains a sought-after proportion among Japanese collectors, so those searching for this fit are likely numerous.
A wide-straight silhouette defined by two pleats at the waist—full through the hip, then subtly tapered toward the hem. The cotton twill, with its pleasant texture, develops character with each wearing. This is what vintage offers: the promise of becoming itself.
Despite the width, the proportions remain refined and remarkably versatile—equally at home in casual or formal contexts. Its foundational quality ensures enduring appeal.
An essential piece. The kind you'd want to own, and perhaps own more than one.
Build a wardrobe around it.
There is soiling present, though no substantial damage that impairs wear. The piece remains entirely wearable.
Smaller sizes in good condition are increasingly elusive. If this is what you've been searching for, consider this your moment.
