I vote for the marpat...In the woods around here (southeast) it seems to be the best.

Work boots or generic-brand sneakers, worn jeans, and a dull, loosely-fitted, solid-color (pocket optional) T-shirt. Ball cap optional, windbreaker or light denim jacket if it's cool out. Grey Man disappears even on an empty street.
I live in the city, so anything camo-patterned vies with Neon signage for conspicuity (is that a word?

).

I realise you're probably not talking about what to wear for your next trip to Target, but I just wanted to remind everyone to think of the obvious - "Camoflage" is more than fabric patterns; it's an overall pattern of appearance.

I now return you to your previous channel, and apologise for the momentary hi-jacking.

Stay safe,

Chuck Brick.

I vote MultiCam. Nice pattern for woods concealment. My 12yr old who observed me from a distance said it blends it well.

ACU is great if you are in a place that is all blue and grey. Like if you are in the sky. Or possibly in a very wet and snowy frozen river. I love joking with the Army guys about their blue and grey cammies...

edited to add: as far as multicam vs marpat - which kind of marpat? woodland or desert? The reason I like the multicam is that it does pretty well everywhere. Woodland marpat is good if you are in shadows a lot, and in very green places. Desert marpat is really only good in a dry desert - even then it is so-so. Still looks good around base though....and I never hide from anything! The scout snipers add camo to their cammies - that stuff works great.

I can't say what would be the best camo pattern, it would depend on your situation and surroundings. I would recommend looking at OPSGEAR.

They have a wide variety of vests and pouches and every patter from woodland to the newest multicam.

SKD TACTICAL, INC.- hard-core, no-bs gear. is another good source for fatigues and MOLLE gear.

I'm a fan of Multicam, but there are many good choices for relatively lush woodland terrain.

Tiger stripe is what i use

For hunting I use this:
ASAT Camouflage - All Season All Terrain
For urban wear I use lots of color varations of the classic woodland pattern.
