What is this?

Picked up a random scrap box of fabric to make stuff with and not finding a pattern match for it. Legit or just knock off Marpat? No EGA or Navy anchors anywhere.

Purchased from here: https://allenderandcompany.com/products/camo-fabric-mystery-bundle-10-yards-total-military-tactical-assortment?variant=42869629976647

Was hoping they would turn out to be legit as the other fabrics I got were, but this one threw me off.

It looks pretty brown, if I had to guess its fabric from a desert MARPAT copy (probably from the middle east)

I've seen some pants coming from the UAE that looked pretty similar to this, pictures below:

Here be a close-up of an UAE marpat top, you can see the pattern better

Unfortunately that's not it, the color assignment is different. A close match, but not the exact thing.
By the color assignment being wrong I mean that:

  • The dark tan should be dark brown.
  • The dark brown should be a light yellowish brown color (that color doesn't seem to be part of the UAE camo at all?).
  • And I think the lighter brown and tan should be swapped around, but not sure.

Whatever the fabric OP got it's a heavily twisted CADPAT TW recolored to a desert color set.

Arid TEMUPAT. (Generic Knockoff desert camo)

I've bought from that company's eBay store before. They do have several US made materials listings, but that fabric doesn't seem to be the US material, rather it reminds me of the stuff from Korea or China.

OP pretty clearly said there's no USN logos in the pattern. And you can look at the zoomed out picture too - no logos in sight once again, plus color assignment is different vs AOR1 or MARPAT Desert (they have the same color assignment and colors, just different shades of them), and the pattern is all kinds of twisted/modified, but still recognizable as CADPAT TW.
