Marine‘s new clothes

[cagomez]

In my experience The old combats at least dried fast and were pretty rugged, except for that combat lingerie phenomenon that occurred as they got older. Are the new combats still in development phase and will improvments/upgrades and reissues occur overtime ?

Did anyone see the Marpat in the Globe and Mail. It‘s not as green and looks heavier material.

Even the new USMC pattern is nowhere near as effective as ours.

Sorry and no disrespect but that is an incorrect statement. It is a fact that CADPAT was designed for the temperate and desiduous areas of North America and Europe--ONLY.
MARPAT, however was designed to be a highly functional pattern in any type of vegetation. The test program that was performed on the color scheme of MARPAT proved the colors and pattern to be superior over not only CADPAT but several other patterns.

There are many references to a NATO test that was conducted finding CADPAT to be the superior NATO pattern. It should be known that the NATO test was conducted PRIOR to the design and release of MARPAT.
