Do you want to play a game? As long as that game isn't getting colonized by Belgium in the Congo.
These pants are a simple and familiar construction to most workwear and military pants of the cold war, but the real story lies in its crazy camo pattern...
Belgian Jigsaw has a much tamer history than the rest of Belgium, originally developed in 1956, the pattern consists of rusty earth, "Bottle" green and khaki green elements amidst smaller, black and white shapes. Originally intended for use in Europe it also worked suspiciously well in the Congo. There were 4 generations of "Jigsaw" issued over it's 66 year reign, with minor pattern changes and improvements in fabrics, with the final jigsaw pattern seeing the removal of the bits of white prevalent in previous patterns.
Our shipment of Belgian M90 Field Pants mainly consists of the 2nd generation jigsaw pattern, which was printed on heavyweight cotton for enhanced durability. The field pants feature an internal drawstring on the waist and drawstrings on the legs for keeping out the elements. The 6 pockets ensure ample carrying capacity whether your rucking though the Congo, or debating whether to violate Germany's neutrality for a change.
Specs
Condition
Field Pants are in great condition, with no tears, cuts, or holes. All hardware is intact, and functional. May exhibit minor signs of use, or variations to the jigsaw pattern shown.
Sizing
For waist size, pants fit true to size, and we'd recommend going for your usual US size. If in doubt, there's nothing wrong with sizing up and using a belt :)"
As was the same deal with the field jackets regarding heights, the Belgian "short" size fits more akin to a "regular" length inseam (~31"). Just like the jackets, we've tested users up to 6 feet tall and found they were able to wear the short size comfortably, with no hinderance to mobility.
US Translated Sizing
Small Waist: 28-29"
Medium Waist: 30-32"
Large Waist: 33-35"
XL Waist: 36-39"
2XL Waist: 40-42"

Great pants, badass quality is you wanna be in a belgian kit
I love these plants they fit really good on me.
Mine came in a pristine condition. Fit great and I couldn't be happier.
Jigsaw camo its my favorite, its very beautiful. Love it so much I have collected most of the gear of the Belgian Army in this pattern, the 120L rucksack, the parka and reversible liner, the bdu's, the goretex rain suit, boonie cover, poncho, 2 man dome tent, load bearing equipment and pouches, canteens , covers and now the bivvy. This pattern is not easy to find in the US. The only camo that comes close is alpenflage in my opinion but its even harder to assemble all the gear in alpenflage as it went out of service much earlier than when the belgians replaced jigsaw. Everyone is going to mostly the same pattern which are versions of multicam. Its a shame if you ask me! If you like the unique patterns of various countries you cant go wrong with Belgian jigsaw and its highly effective as well. Also its one of those camos that is hard to photograph. Anyone who has owned a piece knows the colors look better in person than in photographs. Heads up for those considering this pattern. Thanks Ivan!
