    I recently picked up this uniform in a local thrift ship. It's marked as Urban Digital Camo and I'm assuming it foreign as we have a lot of foreign students come through my post. But I have no idea what country. Does anyone know where it comes from?

    Thanks, That's what I thought after trolling thru Camo sites on the internet, but I could never quite find anything that matched it. Kevin

    Jordanian, but there is some question about if this is legitimate issue or not because the labels aren't correct for it. I chalk it for them getting the quality they paid for Very Happy

    Steve, there is a good run down on the Jordanian KA2 uniform is on Camopedia at:
    http://camopedia.org/index.php?title=Jordan

    "Subsequent to the original issue of the KA2 series of uniforms, the Ministry of Defense contracted with a different manufacturer but was unable to secure the rights to reproduce the original camouflage design. Hence, the second and subsequent series of KA2 uniforms are printed using a similar pattern - but not an exact copy of the original."

    I would be careful with any of those camouflage "expert" sites because some of the information on them is inaccurate. Also, the sites just offer a general overview, and rehash, of information on camo patterns but, they do not touch much on the uniforms themselves (layout, material used, manufacturing stamps or tags, etc.).

    The collectors on this site are a much better source of information on camo uniforms for sure!

    There's actually been several different runs of these uniforms. There's ripstop versions with a more ACU cut, for example.

    I have also heard the same story about the slightly different examples. For sure they exist and for sure they are a little different than others. But exactly why... I don't know.

    I have add a picture with compare a petra jacket and a good Jordan jacket: https://iacmc.forumotion.com/t673-jordan-army-print-digital
    I don't undestand why all garment with the petra label are wrong, desert pattern with urban write on the label, urban pattern with desert write on the label, intentional?
