[Closed] Army surplus goretex trousers (again)

Wonder if cutting a pair of these down might be better than my short lived endura shorts.

Thats exactly the plan

I think you need to size up, if you can find somewhere that sells them by the label size you want something like 85/88/100 (leg/waist/seat) for a 32" waist

You should be ok with the same size, just remember, they are sized in centimetres rather than inches so you'll need to do a conversion to work out the right size... And there's generally p[lenty of give in them anyway, as well as the elsticated waist/cord-lock so being slightly too big/too small shouldn't be too much of an issue.

I'll be chopping my issue ones up when I leave the Army, but I'll be "cool" (possibly...) cos mine will be multicam rather than DPM...

I wear mine over lycra cycle shorts and the sizing was about right. They were about the same place in my local army surplus store with the benefit of being able to try them

thanks all

Ive got some from my local outdoor/survival/fishing shop,i work outside alot,theyre not goretex brand but work exactly like,you can stick a hose on them at full bore and they keep water out,their soft on the inside,breathable considering the cost,they cost me £20,they not fancy,just a draw string elasticated waist-band,two pockets,camo colour unfortunately,ive 32" waist,ive a large to go over trousers,so they stretch quite a bit(38"),i think to cut down id want a small,they are really hardwearing.
