These are authentic combat trousers featuring the 6-Color Desert Camouflage—commonly known as “Chocolate Chip Camouflage”—which stands out even among U.S. military desert camouflage patterns. The size is SMALL-SHORT.
As verified by the contract label, this item is from a 1990 contract (DLA100-90-C-0301). The manufacturer is PROPPER INTERNATIONAL, INC., a well-known U.S. military contractor, and the size is the highly rare SMALL-SHORT.
The 6C Desert Camouflage features a highly distinctive design consisting of a desert-colored base—composed of tan, brown, and pale green tones—overlaid with a pattern of small, rock-like shadows in black and white. Due to these fine specks, it is affectionately known as “Chocolate Chip” and was used from the 1980s through the early 1990s.It remains extremely popular today, particularly as a camouflage pattern that symbolizes the U.S. military during the Gulf War era.
The fact that it dates back to a 1990 contract is another key point. These are authentic U.S. military trousers from the era leading up to Operation Desert Storm, and they’re a piece you can appreciate not only for their stylish appeal as a fashion item but also for the historical context they represent.
The details are truly military-style, featuring large cargo pockets on both thighs and flap-style hip pockets on the back. There are adjustment straps on both sides of the waist and a drawcord at the hem.The fabric is 50% cotton / 50% nylon, with a texture that conveys the rugged durability typical of military apparel.
The size is SMALL-SHORT. According to the label, the waist measures 27–31 inches, and the inseam is 26 1/2–29 1/2 inches. The short length makes it easy for Japanese people to wear, and the size balance is very appealing for those who want to wear 6C Desert Pants as a fashion statement.
The condition is “Used.” While there is some slight fading and signs of wear throughout, these do not significantly detract from the overall look, and the pair is in good condition overall. In fact, the subtle fade—which you won’t find on a brand-new pair—softens the 6C Desert’s color palette, giving it a look that’s quintessentially vintage military.
Unlike the 1991 contract pair mentioned earlier, this pair lets you enjoy the color and texture that have developed through actual, heavy use. As the chocolate chip camouflage fades, the contrast between brown and tan blends together, creating a very stylish look.
These vintage military pants have a striking presence—perfect not only for collecting as U.S. military gear from the Gulf War era but also for pairing with T-shirts, sweatshirts, or field jackets.
Condition: Used / Slightly faded with signs of wear; overall in good condition
