Personally, I hate watching valuable resources being pissed away when the folks at Mossy Oak could do a better job at 1/3 the price.

I hate to say that you're making assumptions that a civilian would make - but you are.
If a contract was let to Mossy Oak for a new set of utilities, they would have to be able to fulfill the whole set of requirements that go with it: wearability, resistance to fading after many washes, accommodation of a wide range of sizes, ability to survive a range of chemicals (the first sets of Jungle Utilities completely dissolved when exposed to mild acid), flame resistance, and reduced heat signature when viewed by IR/Thermal sights.
That contract would get expensive, fast - it's not the same as buying clothes off the shelf at the sporting goods store.
You served in the Corps - When? Where?
