I have been looking to order some digital urban and woodland camo BDUs, but i want to find marine issue patterns, because ive heard bad things about some imitation digital camo.  I was wondering if anyone has a site that sales the marine issued pattern.  Thanks in advance.

Medical reason that prohibits me, so a valid reply is still needed.  Good try though.

I just got a woodland cammo digital top on ebay. made by Mil-Tec. it's very green I think it should have a little more brown in it.

the sleeves are very big. wish it was a little less floppy.  first thing i did was wash it 3 times to get the stiffness out.
Slant pockets have to get used to.
sewed my ARFCOM patch on one of the pockets, I couldn't decide weather to sew it on straight or line it up with the pocket, i chose to line it up with the pocket. no room on the sleeves.

undecided about the velcro pockets.
over all rating: 7
I just wore out my Woodland pattern BDU top and had to replace it, that one lasted 20 years. so, the next time i upgrade, who knows what pattern will be out.

edited: if they make the urban colors, i think that would work better. more browns and grays??

sounds like you got the "Jungle Stalker" (very similar to CADPAT).

My Tru-Spec from Brigade Quartermaster look pretty good but wash them inside out or they will fade pretty quickly.

The best camo, but you need to drop around $200 for a set

I have had a couple dealings with Gary at High Desert since posting the link.
The products are nice, price is good, and customer service was very good.

I purchased a set of Tru Spec desert digital ripstop pants from a surplus store in Baton Rouge and have had no problems with fading.  I think the fading issue was with the poly-cotton blends.

I like the pants.  Not the best stitching I've seen, but they're good for the range or a hunting trip.  I'd like it if I could find a jacket in my size in the same ripstop fabric, but it doesn't appear they make it.

Thanks for the High Desert link.
