Well after 5 years of looking for a desert night camo parka in XL I finally won one on ebay. I love this pattern based only on the way it looks not for its practical usage.  anybody else have gear in the pattern?

parka and bush cover. the cover was production, though, not custom made by a rigger. it has the standard green tag.
