Not yet. Everything on the market sucks. You can contact Crye Precision to make them... However, you might need a larger order and you will pay quite a bit more....

I thought Crye put the kibosh on this idea - something about it being a current SOCOM pattern and not available to the open market, yada yada yada. I thought I read that somewhere, but can't remember where. |

Crye and drifire have made them for MARSOC.
They can be found on eBay for the cheap low price of $800. |

Or you could just get one sewn up.
It's not mixing rocket fuel. It's just a shirt. |

Do it the way they made the originals.
Take a DRIFIRE tshirt and a BDU top to a sew shop and tell them you want the BDU sleeves seen onto the tshirt. Ensure they sew a sort- of cuff around the arm holes of the tshirt before they attach the sleeves. |

Most of them in theatre when I left I '13 were made by having your wife send you some old woodland cammie tops and brown GI t-shirts so you could have them zapped together by the fillipino dudes in the sew shop. I know nomex ones were out there but the homebrew was widespread

You can find dri-fire sets for around $350, Potomac makes a combat shirt in woodland as well. The crye ones are not that great, they fade like crazy (had a set for a while at a good price, sold for profit).
Anyway I'm in the market for one as well. Might go with the Potomac or just get a tru-spec one. |

What's old is new again. Do those units use woodland because it's effective for their needs or to blend in with indigenous troops like the Afghan army?

For a long time ANA wore woodland (or a 3rd world copy of it). People who often worked with ANA would bring their woodlands because at this time the acu and marpat were young and most guys that had been around awhile had plenty of woodland laying around. It was easy to get brown t-shirts in theatre until the Navy started giving multicam to everyone (late 11, early 12). Now the commandos have flashy new digital-ish camo in multicam type tones but when I left AFG a year ago the guys pushing commandos still wore woodland. Dont follow the arfcom fashion. Use your own judgement and use what works. Woodland is fine and always has been. |

You might want to check out paintball companies. I can't say anything about NIR or the like, but generally paintball gear is durable enough to spend a lot of time running around in the woods.
I think Valken Sports does woodland camo stuff. |

If your pride is not a concern here, some airsoft companies make "replica" woodland combat shirts and pants in the style of crye g3, drifire, etc. As with anything replica it will not be the same quality as the real deal, but if you do some research on google and YouTube, you can find some *almost* on par.

Haven't ever actually seen anything made by this guy yet:
http://libertytreetactical.com/Liberty_Tree_Tactical/Home.html However, I plan to in the near future - when I contacted him, he quoted me $55 for a conversion if you provide the BDU top/undershirt, going up from there depending on what he needs to provide/what features/materials you want. He advertises on eBay as well. Beyond that, I don't know much about the company, but for $55 and a spare top, I'm thinking of trying it out. ~Augee |
