When you're part of a largely unsupported military, you need simple, durable gear that endures harsh environments and is easy to repair. The SADF Nutria uniform is a shining example of practical uniform design. Designed for brutal African environments, these unissued SADF Nutria pants are tough enough to take on extended periods in the field. The material is strong, yet lightweight--perfect for tough tasks, long marches, and by design, getting dirty.
The iconic Nutria brown color goes well with a wide variety of environments and camo patterns. Repeated washing and field use lighten the shade, making it more effective in most environments. The Nutria brown cotton-polyester fabric blend wears very hard, hides dirt and grime, and excels at keeping the sun at bay. Based on the info printed on the tags, these pants are from the very last years of the Border War (1990s). This may explain why they were never issued and are still in their original packaging.

Sizing
We've converted the old sizing system into one in good 'ol American imperial inches. Being that these pants aren't from America, they're a bit less generous about making you feel good for having a smaller waist.
The actual measurement of your waist is what you go with, not your usual jeans size (For example, a 38" waisted lad would normally buy 36" regular fit jeans here in America, but everywhere else in the world, they'd have to buy 38s).
The length system is pretty standard to most 3-length systems with a "Short", "Regular" and "Long". do note that some higher waist sizes bump the length up just a hair, so we've added ranges for the lengths. If you know your typical named-length size from buying pants online, stick with that.
