New? Looks like the older, old pattern.

Yep, looks strikingly similar to the original nomex version of the BDU I wore back in the late 90s. Third uniform change for the Army in less than a decade...but, hey, DoD uniform contractors gotta eat too.

Very much so, 'specially doen at the trouser leg.

Probably vast warehouses full of the old ripstop stuff still unused.
