It doesn't even need to be camo to cause issues. A cashier at Lefty's, a left-handed specialty store in San Francisco nearly gave me a military discount because I was wearing an OD green BDU blouse and OD green tactical pants. I immediately stopped him and pointed out that the US military hasn't used solid OD green in decades. The fact that it was Fleet Week likely added to the issue.

Some US military police like the USMC's SRT/SWAT currently use flat OD green tactical uniforms, mainly to differentiate them from the regular service uniform. Add to that the issuance of OD green uniforms by some DHS units, FBI tactical units, local SWAT, etc. and there could also be an issue of law enforcement impersonation.

I used wear BDU's sometimes, OD, M81 and T-Stripe. I like the look and it's very comfortable but I had to stop because on a few occasions I got accused of stolen valor (Mind you I look too young to have been issued any of that and I am wearing tennis shoes with no patches at all on the outfit), other times people would question when/where I served, or a kid working the counter would offer me a discount and I'd get shitty looks from people when I had to explain I just like the look and feel of my baggy ass BDU's. Now it's only the pants I wear unless it's for hunting. Shame.

In the Philippines, I took a camping class for my physical education requirements in college. We were told NOT to wear any camouflage, or fatigues when camping out in the wilderness, which makes sense since the public, the government, even other armed groups (whether outlaw, private, or rebel) have very practical reasons to immediately think you're an enemy (or at least dangerous to them), ESPECIALLY if it's not a uniform/ pattern that isn't the same as theirs. The government also has prior experiences with people committing crimes using police, and military uniforms. Non-government forces have experienced it too; iirc one rebel group shared the same uniform as one private armed group which confused as to who committed one assassination

Here in the Philippines, the one camo you absolutely cannot wear is PHILARPAT, our army's official camo. How seriously camo laws are taken also depends on what kind of equipment your wearing and what region you're in. In the cities, you'd be alright wearing some kinds of camo. In the provinces, you'd have to be way more careful. In Mindanao, I wouldn't even risk wearing choco chip shorts (there are many photos of rebel fighters wearing whatever camo they find, including desert camo).

The one was the Special Force's Regiment - Airborne from the Army and the Naval Special Operation's Command from the Navy. If you wear that specific type of Tiger stripe much better to avoid it but if it's a short Pants tho, it's fine but long pants are prohibited for the Tiger stripes. But if it is look like the different colors (Like Russian OMON, USAF Digi-Tiger Stripes, Taiwanese Tiger Stripes) you can allow it. But just like I said, I suggest not to wear the specific ones that already used by the two most respective Units of the AFPSOCOM.

during my stay in the Philippines from what I understand is that authorities only prohibit the use of Philippine Camo or Uniforms issued by their own government. it is safe to wear other patterns such as US patterns. just avoid wearing the whole uniform say limit it to one piece and you are good. Surplus is booming in the Philippines and the more the public have access to it, largely US patterns this is not an issue to the local government. I actually know some cops selling commercial and US camouflage to the public.

Actually to keep it simple, here in the Philippines current issued camo BDU's can't be worn publicly. If any person not in the PNP or AFP wears it publicly they'll be fined for it. Other BDU's from other countries and old BDU's not issued anymore are legal, even if you put in patches, badges and the like. A lot of people that do those types are either airsofters, collectors, and reenactors. I myself am an airsofter and I also wear a foreign BDU and sometimes I also meet airsofters who are active personel in the PNP and AFP and its fine. So the summary of it is anyone can buy BDU's here in the Philippines. Foreign BDU's are legal to own, but current issued BDU's by the AFP and PNP aren't allowed to be owned by people not in the AFP and PNP (exceptions are retirees).

For the Philippines it is highly discouraged to wear anything resembling military uniforms or the use vehicles with colors resembling that of the military as you put yourself at risk of ambush from the terrorists that operates on certain areas of the country. Mostly in the mountainous areas and the southern islands where the terrorists are mostly located. Speaking of the camouflage uniforms, you should check out the weird orange camouflage of our Bureau of Fire Protection agency. They want to be visible and well camouflaged at the same time 🤣

It is not enforced these days but in the heydays of insurgency in NE India in 1980s and 1990s camo gear was a quick way to get picked up by police or if you are in really bad luck para military/army. Results might range from a sound trashing to torture and, worst case you get disappeared/encountered depending on the unit that got you and the location you were caught(urban/rural/forest). An uncle of mine found out the hard way when he was on top of a tree with a shotgun to protect his fields from wild elephants and boars at night. Since the area is in the boundary between my state and neighboring Assam(insurgency hot bed those days) he was found by a military patrol conducting counter insurgency operations. So an armed man in a forest area at night in camo meant he was detained for a significant amount of time and although, never was the same physically and mentally and winters were horrible for his joints.

To be more specific for the Philippine Section, civilians can't buy/will be arrested wearing PHILARPAT, PNP Patterns(FSU woodland, "Camo Green", SAF), "Patig" DPM copies, LRRPAT, and other current-issue camos. No idea if this applies to uniforms from non-DND/PNP agencies (like BFP), but they'll have issues with you impersonating them for sure. Legacy uniforms (like M81 Woodland or Olive Drab uniforms) are okay, as well as foreign patterns (Multicam, UCP, etc). Of course, none of this applies if you're not in the Philippines. I've seen American mil-simmers wear full LRR kits and I am in complete envy. Where the hell did they get those uniforms anyway?

From what I remember; it is like that too here in Finland. Wearing m/05 is ok, but if you have the name tape, rank, flag and cocarde on your uniform, and you're not currently serving (conscript, refreshment training etc.) it's not ok. But I don't know if anyone would notice, since most of the men and some of the women go through the conscription and people in m/05 are common sight around the country. Wearing foreing camo or older military stuff isn't a problem either, since most of the younger populace have been wearing Bundeswehr camo jackets for the past 10-15 years.

In AD 2017, this Prior Service USMC and US Army Veteran ( 9 Years of Active Federal Military Service ( AFMS), with 1 Year and 4 Months in the Army National Guard ( ARNG) and US Army Reserve ( USAR) ), was invited to a Conservative Jewish Synagogue near Mesa, Arizona, by a Black Man' named Drew, nicknamed " Doc", because, He was a Navy Hospital Corpsman during the Vietnam War, and, a convert to Judaism from Baptist Church Christianity. I was confronted by an Israeli Woman with an Eastern European accent, named " Motti" , who claimed that She was a Lieutenant Colonel in the Hel Avir Yisrael , Israel Air Force ( IAF), and , started to berate Me for wearing an Olive Drab Green Condor Ball Cap, a long sleeve and short sleeve shirt and trousers, from Dickie's, and, Interceptor Tactical Boots and a " Rigger's Belt", in Desert Sand. This U. S. Citizen of Puerto Rican descent 🇵🇷🇺🇸 kept His Professional Warfighter Composure , and, told Her that She was a Foreigner in My Country, that I did not recognize Her Rank nor Military Service in the Israel Defense Force ( IDF), and, She had no Military Forces Identification Card to prove that She was either on Active Duty or Reserve Component Military Forces of the State of Israel and, I also told " Motti", that , unlike the State of Israel, The United States of America, has The Constitution 🇺🇸📜 that says that We AMCITS ( American Citizens) can own 🔥💥 Arms , and, Express Ourselves as We want , to even wear Olive Drab Green, Woodland Camouflage M81 BDU and Desert Sand, Desert Camouflage, or any other Military or ParaMilitary Clothing and Apparel. If I even wanted to go to any Foreign County , and honestly, I don't want to, I will comply with the laws of that Nation State, however, I will not allow No One, NOT even another AMCIT( American Citizen) , and most definitely, NOT A FOREIGNER, to tell Me not to wear Olive Drab Green, MultiCam, Woodland Camouflage M81 BDU and Desert Camouflage M81 BDU, MARPAT Woodland Camouflage/ Desert Camouflage, etc and et.al., when The Foreigner is NOT a United States Citizen nor a Legalized National. 🇺🇸🦅🗽📜😡🤬🖕

In Greece it's only illegal as long as you trying to impersonating authority In practice most conscripts are not asked to return their camo - only dress uniforms and nowadays those are not even issued So it's not uncommon to conscripts gifting away their cammos or using them as hunting or working clothes And you can also get surplus stuff from dedicated shops since the same companies making uniforms are often make working clothes as well so it's not uncommon for older discontinued, experimental ect uniforms often end up to those shops 😉
