Well Bill, that's my next project. The camos they sent seem similar, but different than the U.S. Army type camos...but don't know if they're the British Army camo or a fashion camo. Haven't had time to look up what a British camo is yet. Didn't remember it when I saw it labeled before.
One of the kilt colors is that shades of blue camo....plenty to ponder for sure!

British Camouflage is known as Distruptive Pattern Material, or DPM. In comes in Forest/Jungle and Desert colours.
This web site has some nice colour photos of all the variants:

I LOVE THIS BOARD!!
Thanks! Looks like close but no cigar, but the camo's so well done and the swatches comparatively small, hard to tell. Guess I'll email TFCK and ask.
Never would have known about "DPM" though...or where to get a look. Thanks!!
