I have had the M2D cammo for about 6 years. It getting lighter and lighter.. But still, as i sit on stand, I am the same color as the dead grass.
It still comes down to sitting still. I also have to remind myself [coyotes] don't see the same as we do. based on this, for me, it's more important to wear natural fabrics and wash with old detergents that don't brighten the colors.
Those two things make you glow or stand out against the landscape. The very thing I am trying not to do.
If you have a tight budget getting military surplus is a great way to go as long as you get the stuff that matches your area or is lighter. It lasts and as long as you wash it inside out with the right detergent it will last, not fade as fast, and let you blend in better. IMO
