MultiCam Black was all the rage a few years ago. Customers used to ask us almost every week if we have plans to build this product or that product in MultiCam Black. We got this question frequently enough that we felt a single article answering this question might be helpful.
BLUF: No. We have no plans to build any of our products in MultiCam Black, MultiCam Alpine, MultiCam Tropic, M81 or any other color/camo pattern not issued in the United States.
Why: MultiCam Black and these other colors are not used in any operational environment by any professional users other than making an occasional cameo on SEAL Team CBS. We love Master Chief Hayes as much as anyone else, but seeing Bravo Team wear MultiCam Black in a California desert just outside the SAG Studio Zone masquerading as a fictional far away land shooting pretend bad guys is as real as the idea that we would comply with Vaccine Mandates from Sleepy Joe.
MultiCam Black and these other colors are great for things like hoodies, hats and vehicle wraps because that is where it belongs. It is fashion, not function.
Our focus is on Building A Superhuman Future for American Security and American Prosperity. To do this, we must maintain an absolute, unyielding focus on use cases where we can weaponize temperature to improve performance and survivability in our continuing quest to liberate humans from the constraints of their environment. This mission places a huge premium on function over fashion, leaving MultiCam Black in the dark.
That said, should professional users start issuing MultiCam Black et al (and/or using it in the field, then we will absolutely build our products in MultiCam Black based on demand. But until then, our color palette will remain MultiCam, Coyote Brown, Black and Ranger Green for our Military line; Safety Yellow and Black for our Safety line.
We hope that helps, but let us know if you have any additional questions in the comments below or by clicking here.

First off love y’all’s products. I had a heat stroke in a foot pursuit on duty 2016, since then West Tennessee summers are really rough on me ever since. I have to disagree with yalls statement that its not practical in the real world. Im assigned to a proactive Drug / Violent Crime task force and i wear it every day. Its phenomenal in our area providing camouflage while still maintaining a professional appearance that the command staff likes. Is it the best camouflage pattern out there no but for us law enforcement guys it gives us a option way better than just plain black or green which does not break up your outline at all. So please consider one day of adding that pattern to your products thanks for your time and amazing products

I agree but if the people want it build it. Make a crap ton of sales based on color alone, lol. Yup. Make that money.
Now, I do understand and agreed why you don’t build MultiCam Black.
