probably similar, can't replicate camo and expect it to work, I think it has to match their terrain.

The only similarity is that both are digital camo patterns. The grey in Chinese camo is much more pronounced than in the Colombian camo.

I think the Canadian's were the first to do digital camoflauge.

very likely made in China.

Actually, more like China copying the pattern from Columbia.

The name for this type of uniform is called

Patriota Digital Camouflage

Columbian Digital pattern uniform are made in Columbia, I believe they are introduced since 2005/2006 (I think i saw one Columbia officer with digital desert uniform with UN back in 2005) while the Chinese type 07 Camouflage start as name suggested 2007.

Here are the uniform my friend have

Hecho en Colombia means made in Columbia and this particular uniform is made on 30/07/2007
