This is where MARPAT really shines, in spring it's way too dark and you look too dark and stand out like a tree against all the green. But when everything dies and it's all brown and light browns, you blend in extremely well

It really is amazing what the Marines have come up with when they receive the smallest funds out of all the major branches.

pretty impressive camo pattern, i think its becoming a favorite of mine, Your video series is 'the' best camo reference source/testing on the internet, keep up the good work,

It's just amazing to me how Marpat looks green in the spring/summer or in a coniferous forest, yet looks brown in the fall/winter in deciduous forests. It's amazing. It almost looks as brown at the Austrian zeltbahn pattern in this environment. edited to add. Wow, it even blends in with a hard wood tree trunk which has grey bark at 7:34.

This is the one i go for Brent. I hope the USMC are not replacing this one any time soon. Take care. Mack

Government: "Work from home." Marines:

Man I love Marpat! If you're in the weeds and go still, especially prone, you will freakin' disappear.

once again MARPAT woodland takes high honours. I've seen it reign supreme in almost all tests I've witnessed.

All these years later and this is still one of the best camo patterns. Maybe AOR2 in the early spring and multicam in winter when everything dies. But Woodland MARPAT blends well pretty much all year round in my ao.

works well Brent, thank you again for your experiments. they are excellent. MARPAT is still one of the best patterns out there. UH RAH

As soon as I saw the camo I loved it. Looked like the perfect brownish to green ratio! I can usually spot say 8/10 of the test with other camos but this one by far wins.

I love Marpat, where I'm at the woodland blends well most of the year, the desert blends surprisingly well in the fall...which surprised me. Awesome video bro!

My favorite cammo and one of the best ever made.

Wow that is a really effective pattern. In the first video I didn't think it was very good but seeing it in the fall it is way better. This is the first one of these videos where I actually had no idea where you where for the majority of the shots.

Much better in the fall. Too dark for the spring. Nice camo job on the rifle! Looking for an army ACU video.

Ive been using Marpat in BC Canada,for hunting deer in the fall for years,Ive had mulies look right through me!

Thats a damn effective pattern

That's amazing how effective it is! A lot more so than I was expecting.

This and m81 are both terrific , and to think they work even better when you add foliage and a face veil or togs . Great stuff

Thanks for sharing the marpat is the last set i need to finish my U.S. GWOT collection . Thanks for sharing. ❤

I’ve never seen someone wear a boonie and not look like a goober. You pull it off so well, you look like a moto poster Marine. Had Poolee flashbacks of beating off in the recruiters supply room tryna steal posters 😂

i typically dont like wearing current issue patterns, because i might be mistaken for a service member, but that camo just does such a good job.....

This is awesome, it definitely works much much better in the later seasons. but when it works, it really works.

Since most of the airsoft and paintball games i go to are in the fall, i find this camo great with some od green and coyote brown pouches on my gear. Really matches the darker/dead vegetation in my area

The coolest looking forest camo evah!

Brent. I can't stress enough about how much I love your videos. I recently watched your videos about hunting camo patterns. Long story short, you should really check out Predator camo and ASAT camo. Both patterns really hone in on versatility and shredding the human outline. If you want to check out the Predator patterns you should definitely look at fall grey, brown deception, and 3-D deception.

This "Where is Brent0331" game is very addictive. Very cool video, many thanks.

definately far more effective in the fall colours...great video...not sure if you can get your hands on some but interested to see how cadpat does with the green foliage from your first video.

Happy Christian family walking through the woods: *wow ain't this lovely?* Brent:

I swear by marpat. This stuff is just so hard to see. Especially when you get them dirty. If if the old woodlands weren't so prevelent I would get some more. My old cami's I never got rid of.

MARPAT MARPAT MAPAT!!! the best camo for European forests!

Good stuff Gunny!

marpat is very effective the reason being is that the marines didnt stupidly try to have a one patern fits all like the army did with ucp. they have a woodland marpat and a desert marpat each are very good at what theyre intended for

In here Marpat is much better than in part 1!

I've noticed that with a number of your tests, the pattern tend to work the best during fall-winter, even woodland. I've comment on your second part of the M81 Woodland effectiveness test on how it performed better in that part than the first. Are most woodland patterns designed for the fall-winter seasons? Do most fighting take place during fall and winter? Or is the idea behind it is that soldiers and marines are more meant to take cover and hide behind trees and such, which are often dark and brown than to be hiding behind a heavily vegetated spot?

Much better now that there is some browns in the environment. Part I was just too noticeable, but it performs much better in this part

I'll be honest I have watched a lot of your camo vids and Marpat and the Tiger stripes seem to me most effective. I wore Marpat when it came out when I was in. I just never really seen it from this prospective.

This time the green in the MARPAT is not so bright looking.

The kids and I have great fun trying to spot you. Enjoy the vids. Thanks.

Superb design, definitely difficult to spot, almost 100% blend accuracy.

Massive improvement in concealment from the fall compared to spring time.

MARPAT is my choice for fall season.

All I have to say is , BADASS!

Great video!

The issue with even the much hated Army ACU is that people dont take into account is that these patterns were developed to be effective at hundreds of meters/yards where engagements were actually occurring. I've seen the hated ACU at 300 yards against both a desert and foliage background and they worked at that distance. At ten yards away where most defense journalists were taking photos to churn up outrage, they were understandably garbage. As would be the man jammies and flip flops the enemy was wearing. They rarely ever let us get that close for a reason. Maybe Ukraine is different but we were 200-300 meters out during most engagements and even 'shitty camo' patterns made a difference.

Hey Brent, now that it's fall you should test the orange and brown version off waffen ss oakleaf.

Yeah , it works pretty dam well! Thank you marine.

The problem I saw with MARPAT is when it gets wet it becomes extra dark, more so prevalent in a newer set. So when Marines are doing Marine things sweating their balls off these things make you stick out pretty badly. These things work a lot better when they start to fade a little in my opinion based on my experiences. BTW Semper Fi devil! Really enjoying the camouflage videos, and with the shooting towards the camera really drives the effectiveness of the camo home. Thanks!

This is pretty impressive in the fall, I wonder how it would do up here in the NE U.S. this time of year.

1. Shot that area, but was very unsure it was actually you. When you moved, I doubted if I'd have hit the right spot of the blotch I thought was you 2. Was suspicious of the spot and focusing on it, but didn't begin to draw until you moved 3. Would have shot the dark patch in front of you 4. Would have shot right beneath you 5. Missed you completely 6. Missed you completely 7. Would have shot beneath you 8. Would have shot in front of you 9. Would have shot at the dark patch to your right side 10. Saw you right away, only briefly unsure 11. Missed you completely 12. Saw that patch right away, but would have aimed above you 13. Saw you about halfway through, was slightly unsure tho 14. Missed you completely. That patch kept drawing attention, but you blended right it 15. Spotted you right away. Easy one tho, good idea to not give it much time This pattern pwned me, makes it a top contender for what I'll pick lol. Good test, as always

Got to do some Multicam Tropic next, even though its no longer summer time, still would good to see its effectiveness in the autumn. Great vid. Cheers.

it does get darker in the shadows. you are definitely silhouetted in shadows and with no or little cover. stay in cover it works really well, for example at 3:25 and 3:26. I am a little disappointed in the camo . great vid.

Too dark. Is interesting to the Amazon, but not to theaters of temperate or tropic operations or thickened forests like you have there. I found you every time and even when i had doubts they were between 2 spots, but then i chose the best spot in relation to the trail and you were there. Good camo, but not very good camo. Fulfills the mission. Ps.: i was DM in Brazilian Army, so i know what to look. Pps .: we also need a new pattern, ours is still dark too. From my chair the solution is to break the silhouette on the shoulders, pelvis and head. It was these parties that denounced him. Good vid. Selva!

Best videos of camo. Thanks for showing them

tons of options, but in my humble opinion, marpat is tough to beat. semper fi. fyi, it works really well in the piney woodlands of long island, with the reddish hues of pine needles, etc.

Simple yet very helpful. 👍

I'm probably going to buy some of this camo it seems to work well. Keep up the great vids man!

I have to say, you just changed my mind about Marpat! Seems to work great

I’d love to see marpat in the middle of winter

What do you think about them navy marpat and open deep blue seas ?? Do navy seals use them to get right under oposing enemy forces ?

Wow that's effective

It seems like the woodland type camos work exceptionally well when there is a bit more brown and lighter fall colors. The bright summer vegetation environment maybe slightly less so

Just like the woodland pattern, this pattern is good going into the fall season. I think marpat is slightly better than woodland.

It doesn’t matter what camo you wear, within reason. The best camo os to be still. I guarantee you that I could wear solids and you’d never see a person in light brush 20 yards from you if you weren’t looking really hard. It’s hard to emphasize the importance of being completely still.

Man, just look at that uniform! Fuckin badass!

Nice video! I'm curious to see Rothco's city digital in a winter environment if you could make that happen

damn these videos are wild. btw saw your videos from officer gregg from the taofledermaus channel liking you video on the acss reticle

Wow, this is a good competitor for the Pencott Greenzone

the new cadpat seems quite similar to this one

Marpat learned woodlands mistake of the big black blotches the only thing I wish the marine corps did was make a multicam pattern or in fact keep the old wood land pattern but make the blotches smaller.

Performance was comparable to M81 in this season. (Lots of browns)

Not too great in other seasons, but right then with that mix of colors it does its job.

Way better than army’s ucp digital in the woods

I’d love to see it used against the AOR2 (which I’m still getting used to it being called since we Sailors just say NWU III). I have a feeling the MARPAT would do better in darker, more shadowed terrain but it would be interesting.

I know it has been a long time since you made this video, but I’d like to see if MARPAT is as effective in the dead of winter with no greenery around.

the best summer camo!

All you had to do was look for the darkest spot in the frame and it was you every time

Great video and as usual Marpat performed beautifully however I thought the rifle you used was a bit too tan for that pattern or environment

Great video as always, and the pattern is very effective, but I agree with you on your favorites about the Tiger Stripe and the Rhodesian Camo Pattern are the most effective. I still love Tiger Stripe. Marpat works really good, but then again you make it work in your favor and there are times you blend in well into the environment, but then others the shadows are not in your favor. I would definitely say that to make camo work don't walk around with a target indicator black weapon only something like the patterns you do on your weapons to make be the best it can for you.

MARPAT is king.

good videos! keep up with the good work! 🇺🇸

In part II (environment with predominance of browns) Marpat is more effective, the USMC did a good job, not like the UCP. But, I prefer M81 Woodland pattern and if it's washed better.

It would be great to redo some videos with 1080 quality?

why are the USMC using tan carriers with the Woodland and desert marpat? is it a cost saving measure? does having the tan vest affect your camoflauge as much when in a woodland environment?

The best camouflage is being still.

I still slightly favor the old woodlsnd

very hit or miss. A couple of the prones were good, one time standing with your back turned was good, and one laying almost completely behind things was good at 10:00 (I would say largely because of the resolution). Most of these positions you were an eye magnet though. I guess it depends on the person, or I might just be tripping. Knowing there is someone hiding in the shot is definitely a huge factor though

MARPAT is pretty effective, makes one wonder why the Army developed the UCP when they had MARPAT available.

Thanks man for responding and that helped me. Also thank you for your service to this country,I have a cousin who was a Marine sniper,oh and I have one more question sorry for bothering you. I was just curious what made you decide to join the Marine Corps I like asking vets this or men who are still in the armed forces.

Great Video, but I have one question in your opinion What color gear goes best with this camo pattern, for example digital Marpat with coyote tan carrier, pouches, etc

I was experimenting with commercial MARPAT here in Serbia and I find out it’s too dark for local environment

WOW! so effective.

I love the desert MARPAT but I think they used too much black in this camouflage. I wish that they used a dark coyote tan color for all of it. What do you think Brent0331?

The last ship comes on tnt Sunday's it's really cool hope you watch it and enjoy

NWU type III might be interesting

You make great videos, sir. Is there any of yours where you cover how to do your face paint? I would like to know if there is a formula or a pattern you recommend. Thank you for your time.

great videos. looks like it's a close tie for marpat & woodland in fall or a semi arid forest like the semi-dryer Sierras in California What's your opinion? Would love to see you do same for vehicle camo as well

It's better in open wood which i guest the most of operations are in open wood.

Thanks! Thanks!! Thanks!!!
