Hello,
i read that the Tiger Stripe BDU´s are still use by Special Forces, Navy Seals, Delta´s, where are these Uniforms used and is the desert Tiger Stripe also used or is it just a fashion camouflage? And do yo guys got pics of these tiger stripe BDU´s in use today?
Thanks, Dave

No longer used by the US Military. The Marines almost adopted a modernized version, but MARPAT digicamo beat it out.

Not in use by US forces. Still in use across the globe. I have a set that I got while working with Venezeulen Special Ops types. The BDUs were Popper, Proper? While the bonnie hat was an old Tiger Stripe Products hat.
Hat had more green in it, while the Top and Bottom had more tan to them.

I have also seen Desert Tiger stripe, does any one know if this pattern was ever used by US troops? I'm under the impression it was only made recently so I'm guessing no.

I've got a set of Tiger Stripe BDUs...I believe the name you were looking for is Propper. That is who made mine, I believe.

The Air Force uses a Tiger Stripe pattern, as well as a digital TS pattern, with the green being more blue than anything else. Two versions of the color btw.
Desert Tigers were used in Iraq by a lot of Special Ops types, ass well as the Original Tiger Force team, but the guys bought their own. Incidentally, the Tigers also were using MultiCam they bought themselves for two rotations, until the Army started issuing them. oF course the REMF's got them first.

Still in use in Afghanistan. Afghan special ops and advisors. Pictures forthcoming (depending on sanitizing them).
