Mil-Tec Arid Woodland (Multicam DPM?)

[EagleDriver]

I was in Germany after my trip to HK for the holidays and stopped into ASMC (www.asmc.de.) They really don't have a store, it is just a warehouse with a counter. You look in the catalog and they will bring what you want to see up to the counter.

Mil-Tec (http://www.sturm-miltec.de/en/Home/1/Home.htm) is an "airsoft quality" gear and uniform manufacturer that makes pouches, plate carriers, uniforms, jackets, and more. I have two Italian Vegetato Desertico uniforms for example.

I wanted to see their "Warrior" pants, which feature the built-in knee pads. I had seen a Multicam version in the ASMC catalog here:




However it is NOT actually Multicam--it looks like a DPM and Multicam cross, not so much Multicam or MTP. But it really looks like this (it is not as green in person):




I like the fact that different companies are trying to make their own multicam--it is nice to be different from the crowd some times.

I ended up not buying them but I might just order a set with combat shirt to have (I collect camo...)

They also had a few tac vests in the pattern and an LBV which would actually fit in with Multicam just fine. I have a number of the old US Woodland LBV's and some times just like to run that at a game.



Funny thing is that the ASMC pictures are multicam so where are the multicam pants???

The multicam coloured dpm its the new british pattern. Is actually like to pick up a set when I have the spare cash.



Possibly still in the selection process, not sure if its replaced regular dpm yet or not.

Yes it has , deployed in A-Stan , and will fully replace DPM by 2013 , not available outside of the MOD though, anywhere. I've looked,
Some prototype garments popped up on E-BAY some months ago for crazy prices. Nothing since that I know of

Brian is very correct. I've been seeing the MTP show up in several military photos from the UK in the last few months as regiments are being outfitted with it. MOD is being very tight fisted with the material.

This is not MTP - it is Mil-Tec's take on Multicam.

well you title did say;

Since "Multicam DPM" is correctly called Multi-Terrain Pattern (MTP), those responding to your post in regards to MOD adoption of the MTP and replacment of DPM would be related to your post.

Mil-Tec has previously offered unique patterns that do look similar to, but different from, actual military patterns. Here's their take on Flecktarn done up in the Multicam/MTP colour ways:
