According to the published information, approved commercial licensors will however receive a so-called demonstration version of CADPAT-MT rather than the official version. Interestingly, the Canadian DND has also published information on how to apply for a commercial license to print CADPAT-MT for clothing and gear that’s not intended for official military issue.

So far we do not know if CADPAT-TW and CADPAT-AR camouflage uniforms and equipment will remain in stock, and/or be deployed as a special issue item for operations in certain specific environments if necessary. It has been confirmed that CADPAT-MT will be the new standard pattern – replacing the earlier CADPAT-TW (temperate woodland) and CADPAT-AR (arid regions).
