It's really hard to tell if you're going to like a camo pattern from just the internet. New camo doesn't photograph the same as regular clothing - on purpose. So in person, what I see is like the picture, only a little more blurry and lighter. The lightness and blur work really well - it swirls into the forest, grass, etc extremely well to the point where if you weren't looking for it, you'd probably miss it. Unfortunately for me, I ordered a MR and quickly realized I needed a SR after swimming a few laps in the waistband. I'm about a 30" waist but this didn't just not fit, I barely survived treading threads here. The pockets are huge - I think I'd appreciate them more on a smaller pair that fit, but you could put mags, books, fetuses, anything you want in there and it's not going to be a drag. It may bunch out weird but the point is, you have more room than you could ever use. Or should use. But it's there! It does have the standard waist cicnhes and the lovely strings around the ankles we always cut off, just like it should. It's not super thick, but it's not unreasonably light - maybe to compare, as if the thickness of denim jeans but with the sturdiness of hardy bdu's. I like that you can go with either two colors as base colors - depends on your climate. If you live in a more arid climate, you can go with an earthy brown (darker than coyote) or you can go with olive drab. I personally am using olive drab gear with the A-TACS so that I don't have to pay triple the price for A-TACS gear just due to the fact that it's currently rare. It blends in perfect with OD and if you live in a truly temperate or forested area like me, then go with that. After seeing this, I immediately love it. I think it took the best parts of MARPAT, Flecktarn, and the old Woodland patterns and mashed them all into one truly beautiful and effective camo. Note: This camo reacts well with light. It washes out in light like real nature - some patterns under light don't wash, and they stick out as being darker, and in dark, this camo will hold the shadows very well, as it should, without creating a silhouette. EDIT: Since the medium-regular was far too large, I ordered a small-regular. It's too small in the waist, but right in the leg room. Contrast to being too big in the legs but just barely too loose in the waist. Compare to the standard Propper BDU's in other colors (black, for example) and there medium-regular is a perfect fit for trousers and small-regular is a perfect fit for the jacket. Propper is seriously messing with sizes. Rule of the thumb becomes the old Army standard. Two sizes; too big, and too small. I like ATACS for the pattern but as actual clothing, it misses the mark.
