If you're finding "authentic" CADPAT in the "approved" Canadian Forces cut, then it is illegal to buy it, or sell it.

Most of the stuff you'll find will be either the same material/cut or the same colour pattern/combination, but it is unlikely that you will (legally) find both.

The Parklands/Frontenac/CP Gear stuff is just fine to play around the bush in. And it is MUCH cheaper than buying the real stuff.

It's not worth a shortage of materiels for troops. So just don't bother and get something else. I have CADPAT material in ACU cut. It's actually quite practical.

I would really reccomend the cadpat in acu if you're rocking a chest rig, the normal 4 pocket config on regular tunics gets in the way with a rig while the acu tunic has some handy sideways chest pockets with a pile of pockets on the arms with some female Velcro for morale patches
Or flags, just say no to using unit/specialist patches if you didn't earn it don't wear it!

I got CADPAT AR in the original cut here in Kitchener for 80$. Keep looking around at surplus stores, that's where I got mine.
