Italian Camo

[Hessler64]

Here are my pants from the G-Max website. This should help you with the colors, but remember mine pants were made from a faded zelt.....

wow those look great? How much was thier custom tailoring on those? And was it just one italian zelt?

[Hessler64]

The price I believe was between USD $115.00 - $120.00. These pants litterally took up one entire Zelt. I asked Robb for the leftovers since i thought I might have enough to make a hat, and what I got left were nothing more than scraps, and the only thing they are good for is some future patch work if need be, and the bottons on them. I am VERY happy with the pants, and wore them at this past Odessa, NY event, adn can't wait to wear them again.

Have a question about the tab and button on the cuff.... if you button the tab to the button what purpose does it serve? is there another button the tab can be buttoned to?

[Hessler64]

Robb leaves this as is. The reason for this is you will have to sew the next button on to the desired length you want the flap to close around your ankle. I asked this same question and this was the answered I recieved. I have yet to do this and just cuff the pant legs to to the desired length and they stay up all day.

These are pants from Spearhead,are they correct? I have seen a few different styles.http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k13/s ... ftritM.jpg

Soldat13 & Hessler64,

Neither of those pants are correct. Hessler64, that was not a wartime zelt used for your trousers.

Soldat13,
OK, here you go. A another of my WW2 era examples. As for passing judgement on Italian camo by internet pictures, don't do it. Colors vary from monitor to monitor and lighting plays a huge part as well as the camera used. A close up of the front and rear as well as specific areas are more important than one overall picture taken far away at at angle. Also, I'm convinced that the Germans took every last Italian zelt with them when they left. I have never seen a nice WW2 era zelt come out of Italy. Plenty of bad color post war stuff but no really nice WW2 era examples.

Update:

3rd time I put on the pants, the suspender buttons all popped off. The top two buttons are a little loose too. Much sewing ahead.

Here is one of my "TELO MIMETICO "

The picture was taken with the sun in the back of it - with sun in front of it - the colors are darker - just a sample to show how the lighting has a lot to do with color . and the type of computer monter a lot to do with the color of it.Yes has sewn holes ,did the rub test on the backlite buttons .on one I have - not plastic -

Richard Underwood has currently got italain camo trousers, M40 tunics and panzer overalls and the print is spot on.


I've got a pair, now they've been faded, and battle worn they look real.
