You are buying an old Swiss Army M70 in TAZ 83 "alpenflage" camo pants. The Swiss tend to make their gear with some pretty unique touches. These trousers are probably the best example of this trend - besides being a jacket, it acts as a combat load bearing system .The TAZ 83 is a military camouflage pattern used by the Swiss Army for the Kampfanzug 57/70 (combat dress 57/70) and the TAZ 83 (Tarnanzug, camouflage dress 83). It also is known as "Alpenflage" or "pizza camouflage" among collectors of militaria. The pattern is based on an experimental all-terrain pattern that saw limited service in World War II by Germany's Waffen-SS and Wehrmacht called Leibermuster.
The Kampfanzug 57/70 is a six-colour camouflage pattern consisting of a tan-coloured background with random white flecks with light green body, overprinted with green, red/reddish brown and black leaf shapes. The choice of red and green would at first glance seem to make this pattern very bright for something intended to conceal, but it works well for FIBUA (fighting in built-up areas) environments and alpine terrain. Swiss soldiers have referred to it as "Vierfrucht-Pyjama," which translates as, "four-fruit pyjamas.
