This may not be the same camo you're looking for but its what Utilikilts calls "sage" in their original kilt style. Utilikilts is back cranking out digital camo kilts in various colors and patterns - you might wanna check their website too.

That looks really nice.
Thanks for tthe tip.
Where did you get the material from?

Re: Army digicam kilt and Pic request
I don't know where anyone else got their material from, but i bought some, just like that, at my local material store, a cotton/poly blend.

It was funny, how many people asked me, when I was flying to NYC and back, if I was in the army - considering my long, braided ponytail ;0)
