Picked these pants up today at a local thrift shop! They probably came from down the street where ADS is headquarted here in Virginia Beach. I cant seem to find any photos of ANA wearing gray uniforms. Were these specific to a certain unit or maybe prototypes? The green labels, especially the "severe penalties" label is pretty cool! These look a lot like Propper uniform pants but with lower calf pockets with Velcro attached.... Any ideas? These rare? And i take it the severe penalties warning is more for over there if say Taliban or someone acquired them right? Not a person in the US?

Nice uniform the penalties it has on it are afghan law not US law, your safe, as far as im aware there is a lot of variations in colours for the ANP from bright blue to greyish blue as the uniform I have and to the greyness of your, but it might be a special unit issue too.

Those could be Afghan Police Trousers or maybe a cheaper ANA replacement instead of giving everyone the digital uniforms, but overall still awesome and thanks for sharing!oceanfrontguy wrote:I cant seem to find any photos of ANA wearing gray uniforms.

Wish I could obtain one. xD

Looks quite a bit like ANP trousers.

Everyone says ANP but the tag says "ANA" on it.. . Does ANP get their uniforms from ANA?

Could be the same factory making both items - it's not unknown for manufacturers to take shortcuts if the end user isn't particularly discriminating. Unless you could find pictures of the ANA wearing them...

I was thinking the same thing, same factory wrong tag, I have afghan uniform that has a shirt tag on the pants, would not think the quality control would be the best

Well, some Afghan Companies make uniforms for both the Police and Armed forces in the same factory, tag mix up? don't be surprised.oceanfrontguy wrote:Everyone says ANP but the tag says "ANA" on it.. . Does ANP get their uniforms from ANA?
