    Recently acquired an older type  Patagonia level 9 blouse.

    Same cut as the current  blouse without the camo velcro but with loads of olive green velcro.

    Here is a brief comparison ; newer type first.

    Where do you find all this nice Patagonia stuff? Laughing But camo velcro version looks cooler IMHO.

    Patagonia Level 9 combat trousers.  

    These are used with a new kneepad design that  simply snaps onto  4 grommets at the corners of the knee as opposed to the Cry Precision type kneepad used on  older NWU III Level 9 trousers ( see previous post #24 ).

    NOS Crye Precision NWU III NSW uniform.

    This is an older type, not the current DGIII types.

    This is an amazingly comfortable shirt.

    A bit heavier than the desert version but just as stretchy.

    found 1 pair of these on a Canadian surplus website for $70 total its got some fading to it but i think its a good deal and a find in Canada. not a fan of button up but i guess i will put them to good use this year. yes i usually wear the camouflage i buy, but i dont wear the full top and bottom just 1 or the other
