It's a pair of sweatpants — but there's something special about surplus sweatpants I can't put my finger on. Is it the stark 90s stylization? The automatic monopolization of German tracksuits by Albanian mafia members? Whatever it might be, I know that there's not many better surplus sweatpants than these.
Of course, it's not complete without the jacket but if you're just looking for another pair of surplus pants for your pump cover arsenal (to match your mannhose?) you shouldn't look further than the Bundeswehr's best. In classic over-engineered German fashion you get zippered pockets, zippered and elastic ankle cuffs, and an elastic & drawstring waistband. I guess they don't want your sweatpants to come down too easily like the US Navy's.

I usually by items in EU 48. these are in the bigger EU Medium size of 50. They still fit great. The elastic waistband works well.

Yes, I know the Stasi went away before the pants were born.
They’re plenty comfortable and flexible. Slight wear along the seams and a bent zipper pull, but not abused or out of working order. Might have to get the sweatshirt to go along with it.
I’m a 34” waist, got a size large, and they fit great.
