As camouflage goes compared to standard DPM "advantage" is in a class of its own. This is because DPM (which stands for disrupted patern material) was designed by the MOD to provide cover from human eyes whilst Advantage (along with "real tree" and "mossy oak") was desined in the states to provide hunters with cover from much more sensitive animal eyesight.
These trousers are brilliant , with the matching jacket, gloves and face mask I can pretty much dissapear into an autum woodland and get super close to even shy animals such as deer and fox
The downside is the price , at 90 folding you could get 3 or 4 pairs of DPM trousers for the same price, but to my mind for the serious wildlife watcher or photographer these are worth having - providing you can afford it
