Description
Swiss Army Overpants
These olive drab overpants were issued by the Swiss Army and are cut to be worn over your regular trousers as an outer layer. Long zippers up the outer leg open the legs wide, so you can pull them on or take them off without removing your boots. Drawstring cuffs then close the hem around the ankle. They suit hunters, hikers, campers and collectors of Swiss military clothing who want an extra layer they can add or shed quickly in the field.
Features
- Swiss Army Issue — These are genuine government-issue overpants from the Swiss military, not a commercial copy.
- Olive Drab Color — Olive drab, the muted green-brown long used on military clothing, works with most field and surplus kit.
- Overpant Cut — A generous, straight-leg fit leaves room to wear them over your trousers.
- Outseam Leg Zippers — A zipper runs up the outer side of each leg, so you can open the lower leg to get them on and off over boots.
- Drawstring Cuffs — A cord at each hem cinches the cuff closed around your boot or ankle.
- Covered Button Fly — A zipper fly sits behind a buttoned placket, with a button closure at the waistband above it.
- Zippered Hip Openings — Vertical zippered slits at the hip give access through the outer layer.
- Plain Waistband — A clean, low-profile waistband sits flat under a jacket or parka hem.
Built To Swiss Spec
These are original Swiss military overpants, made to the Swiss Army's own specification rather than a retailer's idea of military style. The fabric is tightly woven with a faint texture, and an issue label is sewn inside the waistband. Because they are cut as an outer layer, choose a size that fits comfortably over the trousers you plan to wear underneath.

These kept me bone dry all dayBought these for a late fall hunting trip and honestly wasnt expecting much since theyre surplus but WOW these things are LEGIT waterproof. Wore them over my regular camo pants during a pretty heavy rain and stayed completely dry from the waist down the whole time, like not even a little dampness. They feel a little stiff at first kind of like a rubberized rain jacket material but you get used to it after a few minutes of moving around. Only thing id say is the sizing runs a bit big on me but thats fine for pulling over layers.
totally waterproof, no leaking at all roomy enough to pull over thick hunting pants
material is stiff and crinkly when you walk

Robust surplus rain pantsGot these for hunting and they keep the wet out real good. Wore them last weekend in a steady drizzle walking through brush and my jeans underneath stayed dry the whole time. The rubberized feel is a bit stiff at first but loosens up. Only nitpick is the sizing runs a little big so belt helps. Does what its supposed to and the olive drab looks proper military surplus.
Actually waterproof in real rain
Runs slightly large

Bought Another Pair, Thats How GoodYep this is my second pair. Bought my first ones maybe 6 months ago on a whim because they were cheap and I needed something to throw on over my work pants when I go out to feed the animals in the morning when its cold. Didn't expect much from surplus stuff honestly. Man was I wrong. The quality on these is no joke, the Swiss aparently don't mess around with there military gear. First pair still looks practically new even though I wear them several times a week.
Incredible quality for surplus pricing, feels brand new

Nice overpants for outdoor workI bought these to wear over my regular pants while working on my property doing landscaping and brush clearing. They are exactly what I needed to keep my clothes clean underneath without having to change every time I go outside. The elastic waistband with the button system gives a surprisingly secure fit and the zippered ankles make them incredibly easy to pull on over my boots in seconds. The Swiss really know how to make practical functional gear and these overpants are no exception.
