i got it as an original libyan issued uniform, quality is very low though, fabric is very thin and the seams are very poorly done.
I got this thru a trade with another collector. I think they are either chinese or south korean made.
let me know if you need any more help
cheers

Danilo,
That's not Libyan issue as far as I know. It's a commercial product made by a company called Hanger II. The pics I have of Libyans in Sumpftarn show different features, buttons, and even camouflage pattern. Unless someone comes up with a picture of Hanger II stuff being worn in Libya I'd have to say it's nothing more than a 1990s knockoff of BGS.
parafal,
It's tough to say from that pic, but are you sure it isn't STURM/Mil-Tec? If so it definitely has no connection to Libya.

No labels at all and the trousers where sent to me by my cousin who lives in Italy and before the start of the "civil war" he travel to Libya a lot and he told me he got them in Libya.

Interesting! Well, that's a good sign they are indeed Libyan. Does it have leg cuff ties? Zipper fly? Any rear pockets? With or without flaps (single or double button)? I'm curious because they are obvious BDU style but there's so many variations the differences are sure to be important for future identification.
