Swedish wool pants, military surplus. Made in Sweden in 1959, and appear to be unused. 32x31, by my measurements. (I am 6', 160lbs, and usually wear a 30 or 31 waist, and these are just a little too big for me) Five button fly, gussetted crotch, one pocket in the back. Suspender buttons, belt loops, and cool Tre Kronor buttons. Designed to be used with small canvas or leather belts around the ankle to snug them down to your boots. (You can find the real things sold by military supply places as "swedish leather utility straps" or such) These have a "grandpa pants" cut - generous in seat and legs with a higher waist. Very comfortable to move in. I have collected a decent variety of Scandinavian millitary surplus wool pants in the past year or so as they're generally of excellent quality and far more affordable than new Filson pants, for example.
