German Army Flecktarn Gortex Pants W/Suspenders and Bib
Everyone’s favorite camo in rain proof form!
In 1976, the Bundeswehr in Germany developed a number of prototype camouflage patterns, to be prototyped as replacements for the solid olive-grey "moleskin" combat uniform. At least four distinct camouflage patterns were tested during Bundeswehr Truppenversuch 76 ("Bundeswehr Troop Trial 76"). Flecktarn ultimately emerged victorious above all other competition in the trials, becoming the staple of the German Army till 2022, facing being phased out by “Multitarn.” However, as early as World War Two, the German Wehrmacht experimented with similar camouflage designs, and there is evidence that similar patterns such as Platanenmuster may have served as the basis for inspiration for Flecktarn. This pair of suspenders is a very classic German design, with the modern twist of a Gore-Tex waterproof shell. Excellent for all your outdoor needs, and perfect to be adjusted for many body types and heights. Grab one from Misty Mountain Supply and look stylish while staying dry today!

Field Notes/Misty Supply Musings/Potential Uses/Trivia
This pair of pants is useful beyond just rainy days! If you are in marshes, winter slush, or other types of weather that normal clothes wouldn’t suffice, this can be paired with a non Gore-tex top to keep your lower half dry while not overheating.
