Abstract

Camouflage patterns on a substrate such as a fabric comprise in a first aspect a substrate having a camouflage pattern with a set of intermixed colored blotches thereon, the colors of the set of intermixed colored blotches being selected from a group of colors comprising an Olive 527 color, a Dark Green 528 color, a Tan 525 color, a Brown 529 color, a Bark Brown 561 color and a Dark Cream 559 color. In another aspect the colors of the set of intermixed colored blotches being selected from a group of colors comprising an Olive 527 color, a Dark Green 528 color, a Light Sage 560 color, a Tan 525 color, a Brown 529 color, a Bark Brown 561 color and a Dark Cream 559 color.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A camouflage pattern on a substrate, comprising:
a substrate having a camouflage pattern with a set of intermixed colored blotches thereon, the colors of the set of intermixed colored blotches being selected from a group of six colors comprising an Olive 527 color, a Dark Green 528 color, a Tan 525 color, a Brown 529 color, a Bark Brown 561 color and a Dark Cream 559 color, wherein in a single repeat of the camouflage pattern about 18.4% to and including 21.5% of the colors in the set of intermixed colored blotches consist of the Olive 527 color and a color layer in the set of the colored blotches that are colored in the Brown 529 color has a first gradient that extends vertically across a width of a repeat of the camouflage pattern.

2. The camouflage pattern on the substrate of claim 1 , wherein a color layer in the set of the colored blotches that are colored in the Dark Green 528 color has a second gradient that extends horizontally along a length of the repeat of the camouflage pattern.

3. A camouflage pattern on a substrate, comprising: a substrate having a camouflage pattern with a set of intermixed colored blotches thereon, colors of the set of intermixed colored blotches being selected from a group of seven colors comprising an Olive 527 color, a Dark Green 528 color, a Light Sage 560 color, a Tan 525 color, a Brown 529 color, a Bark Brown 561 color and a Dark Cream 559 color, wherein in a single repeat of the camouflage pattern about 18.4% to and including 21.5% of the colors in the set of intermixed colored blotches consist of the Olive 527 color and a color layer in the set of the colored blotches that are colored in the Brown 529 color has a first gradient that extends vertically across a width of a repeat of the camouflage pattern.

4. The camouflage pattern on the substrate of claim 3 , wherein a color layer in the set of the colored blotches that are colored in the Dark Green 528 color has a second gradient that extends horizontally along a length of the repeat of the camouflage pattern.

5. A camouflage pattern on a fabric, comprising:
a fabric having a camouflage pattern with a set of intermixed colored blotches thereon, the colors of the set of intermixed colored blotches being selected from a group of colors comprising an Olive 527 color, a Dark Green 528 color, a Tan 525 color, a Brown 529 color, a Bark Brown 561 color and a Dark Cream 559 color, wherein in a single repeat of the camouflage pattern about 18.4% to and including 21.5% of the colors in the set of intermixed colored blotches consist of the Olive 527 color and a color layer in the set of the colored blotches that are colored in the Brown 529 color has a first gradient that extends vertically across a width of a repeat of the camouflage pattern.

6. The camouflage pattern on the fabric of claim 5 , wherein a color layer in the set of the colored blotches that are colored in the Dark Green 528 color has a second gradient that extends horizontally along a length of the repeat of the camouflage pattern.

7. A camouflage pattern on a fabric, comprising:
a fabric having a camouflage pattern with a set of intermixed colored blotches thereon, the colors of the set of intermixed colored blotches being selected from a group of colors comprising an Olive 527 color, a Dark Green 528 color, a Light Sage 560 color, a Tan 525 color, a Brown 529 color, a Bark Brown 561 color and a Dark Cream 559 color, wherein in a single repeat of the camouflage pattern about 18.4% to and including 21.5% of the colors in the set of intermixed colored blotches consist of the Olive 527 color and a color layer in the set of the colored blotches that are colored in the Brown 529 color has a first gradient that extends vertically across a width of a repeat of the camouflage pattern.

8. The camouflage pattern on the fabric of claim 7 , wherein a color layer in the set of the colored blotches that are colored in the Dark Green 528 color has a second gradient that extends horizontally along a length of the repeat of the camouflage pattern.

9. The camouflage pattern on the substrate of claim 1 , wherein blotches of the set of intermixed colored blotches are horizontally oriented in a fill direction of the repeat of the camouflage pattern.

10. The camouflage pattern on the substrate of claim 2 , wherein the first gradient comprises a lighter region followed by a darker region followed by a lighter region.

11. The camouflage pattern on the substrate of claim 2 , wherein an intensity of the first gradient increases in a vertical direction along the repeat of the camouflage pattern.

12. The camouflage pattern on the substrate of claim 3 , wherein blotches of the set of intermixed colored blotches are horizontally oriented in a fill direction of the repeat of the camouflage pattern.

13. The camouflage pattern on the substrate of claim 3 , wherein the first gradient comprises a lighter region followed by a darker region followed by a lighter region.

14. The camouflage pattern on the substrate of claim 3 , wherein an intensity of the first gradient increases in a vertical direction of the repeat of the camouflage pattern.

15. The camouflage pattern on the fabric of claim 5 , wherein blotches of the set of intermixed colored blotches are horizontally oriented in a fill direction of the repeat of the repeating camouflage pattern.

16. The camouflage pattern on the fabric of claim 5 , wherein the first gradient comprises a lighter region followed by a darker region followed by a lighter region.

17. The camouflage pattern on the fabric of claim 5 , wherein an intensity of the first gradient increases in a vertical direction of the repeat of the camouflage pattern.

18. The camouflage pattern on the fabric of claim 7 , wherein blotches of the set of intermixed colored blotches are horizontally oriented in a fill direction of the repeat of the repeating camouflage pattern.

19. The camouflage pattern on the fabric of claim 7 , wherein the first gradient comprises a lighter region followed by a darker region followed by a lighter region.

20. The camouflage pattern on the fabric of claim 7 , wherein an intensity of the first gradient increases in a vertical direction of the repeat of the camouflage pattern.
