Swedish M90 camouflage originally began its life as vehicle camouflage developed by the Försvarets forskningsanstalt (FOA) in the 1970’s. 

With solid colorways becoming rather dated by the late 1980s, Sweden decided to adapt its FOA camouflage for use amongst its personnel as M90. Designed to hide Sweden’s planes and tanks from the aerial and satellite reconnaissance of the late Soviet Union, it was especially useful in hiding amongst Sweden’s forest and tundra. And since most people aren’t as large as a tank (unlike your average American), the Swedes decided to scale it down by a proportion of 1:66. 

The result? An uncharacteristically clean camouflage. With its hard lines and geometric patterning, it’s hard to believe this pattern was originally developed in the late 70s. It was so modern its influence can even be found in Battlefield 4… if you know where to look. It certainly makes for a uniquely futuristic camouflage that isn’t MULTICAM®️ (thank the Lord). 

The M90 Field Pants are probably one the most standout features for field pants on our site. 

They sport two buttonable hand pockets to keep your hands warm and your phone and keys safe & secure while the zippered side pockets give you ample space to store spare medical supplies or Swedish Fish. The heavy-duty construction also includes reinforced knees and zippered calves along with integral elastic in the cuff to keep out any inclement Scandinavian-type weather.

Sizing

The Swedes thought they were making a sizing utopia by deciding your size with height and weight. Honestly? It works pretty well. Figure out your height (in centimeters), and input your overall weight and you should have a well-fitting pair of field pants.
