British Army MTP Combat Pants
A great catch for a common camo!
These pants will meet all your needs you can think of, and all the needs you didn’t think of. Whether you’re a hard hitter or a weekend innawoods appreciator, these pants are made to outdo the competition. Seen today in Ukraine and otherwise worn primarily by the British army, they are a tried and tested and series of kit, intended for summer use (or winter if you wear long johns). Made to replace the CS96 British “trousers” they are both an upgrade and offer new features. They are generously sized, to allow for comfortable and swift movement when worn on top of other layers of clothing, with countless loops and straps to fit it depending on the size of the wearer and the layer worn underneath, virtually allowing these pants to be worn in any season.
Personal Clothing System (PCS)
These British Army MTP camouflage cargo pants are part of the English effort to modernize their aging military apparatus in their new Personal Clothing System (PCS) program. Much like Ratnik, the PCS is a multi-layered “future infantry combat system,” that intends to have a comprehensive setup of clothing to ensure that soldiers of the British Military have all their needs met, both in terms of a baseline of preparation and multi purpose functions that may unexpectedly arise. This series replaced the CS95 series uniform system.
MTP
The Multi-Terrain Pattern or MTP for short is the current camouflage standard implemented by the British Armed Forces. This new camo phased out DPM during the “Urgent Operational Requirement” in which the United Kingdom needed a non woodland pattern domestic pattern for operations in Afghanistan, keeping the Helmand Province in mind as the priority biome palette. During this time, three patterns were competed for the contract offered by the British Ministry of Defence's (MOD) Personal Equipment and Common Operational Clothing (PECOC) programme, of which MTP won. MTP was intended for multi environment use, as the three aforementioned patterns were used field-tested in multiple theaters including Kenya, across the United Kingdom, and Afghanistan.

Field Notes/Misty Supply Musings/Potential Uses/Trivia
MTP uniforms are commonly seen in Ukraine today, worn by both sides in the conflict, but mostly by the Armed Forces of Ukraine and friends. This camouflage pattern is not only effective on paper, not only proven effective in an asymmetrical war, but ultimately MTP has proven its effectiveness in a modern ground war too.
Unless you look ridiculously closely, its essentially impossible to tell MTP and Multicam apart. Which is how the British got away with having Multicam without actually paying Crye any money lol (its different if you look close enough!!!!)
