BLOG: Gulf War Bottoms (Drops 9/8)

The iconic Gulf War patterns are back for Fall ‘23 with Joggers & EDC Shorts loaded up in Choco Chip (DPDU) and Desert Night Camo (DNC).

Some of you may have noticed that we dropped Choco & DNC shorts in April of last year.
So what’s different with this round of shorts?

  • Last run of shorts did not have belt loops. This run has 2cm thick belt loops for EDC function.

  • Last run was constructed of stretch cotton twill. This run is constructed of ripstop stretch, a more durable material that is resistant to tears and better suited to outdoor activities. This material is 97% cotton, 3% spandex.

  • Last run did not have a fly. This run has a zipper fly with button closure - another feature to help EDC function.

  • Finally, we upgraded our digital artwork files for both the DNC camo and the Choco camo. The colors/shades/shapes are more accurate than ever before, almost perfectly resembling the historical patterns issued & used in Operation Desert Storm.

Due to these changes in features, construction, and design, we are naming this style the
EDC Short Mk II. The fit is the same as our previous recent EDC Short runs. If you know your size in those, we recommend ordering the same size in these.
