The Fatigue Pant, also known as "Baker Pant" or "OG-107" for its original "Olive Green" color, needs no introduction. It is the quintessential military-inspired pant. Emerging in the 1950s, this model was developed by the U.S. military seeking to revise their uniforms after World War II. They needed pants that were lighter, more practical, and more comfortable, necessitating significant improvements. The Fatigue Pant met these criteria so well that it became the most enduring uniform model used by the U.S. army. It’s hard to imagine a more reliable and timeless pair of pants.

The real touch of the Japanese manufacturer lies in the fabric used in its creation. It is a Duck Canvas fabric, exclusive to FOB, woven at low tension, allowing it to achieve a characteristic texture. This canvas blends cotton with a combination of hemp and polyester, two fibers intended to enhance the durability of the canvas, also providing a drier feel while maintaining great thermal and moisture-regulating properties.

The traditional Fatigue Pant details remain unchanged, such as the tightening tabs on each side of the belt, the patch pockets on the front, the buttoned flap at the back, and the "13 Stars" design buttons that reflect the era, stars representing the 13 British colonies on the North Atlantic coast of the United States.
