    Are these real or just some fake?

    The buttons and leg ties look suspect for a genuine issue item, and most of our issue stuff is either wash at synthetic 40' or cotton 60' on laundering labels. Can't say I've ever seen anything with a contract number as late as that with a CG prefix on the NSN either (not to say there isn't things out there that would have it). Size doesn't tally up with the available options for normal combat trousers either, leg sizes start at 70cm and go up in increments of 5cm.

    Apart from the cut of the trousers matching that of the DPM uniform of that contract number time frame everything else about it looks suspect.
