    Hi guys. I bought this last week, as MK Swirl camo. I do trust the person I bought it from, but the pattern just seems different to what I've seen on the internet. Does anyone know what pattern it is? Any help is really appreciated

    Looks like some variation of the South Korean 'spot' pattern. Definitely commercial. Is this a rain jacket?

    The MK Swirl pattern is also a Korean pattern - just not this one.

    The pattern is most widely used by military academy students (they have a universal training program for all youth). There's many, many variations. It's possible this was made with that purpose in mind. Or someone just made it for the heck of it Wink

    I have a pair of rain trousers in a similar if not the same pattern and sure they are Czech made from memory.
