Wow. That's actually really cool!
I've been wanting a pair of UDT trunks for a while, some of the newer ones.

The UDT dive trunks have not changed much since WWII , the fabric is the main thing that has changed , i have seen them in Tiger Stripe before and i even saw a pair in ABU camo material a few days ago.
