But I will say that the original Predator pattern all looks the same in black and white regardless if it is spring green, fall brown, fall grey or the blaze orange pattern they once offered. The different colours are for marketing reasons only which makes good business sense. If animals are truely colour blind then the colours are for us.. As a test just take any predator image from their website or the gray wolf website and convert it to black and white.. The interesting thing is that Predator Camo doesn't deny this, I sent them an email asking why all the colours for the original pattern and they just said it's because that is what the customer wants. No unjustified product claims just giving the people what they want.
Followed my writing, eh?
I've been saying the same thing for years...
What some of ya'll need to remember is that deer DO NOT only see exclusively in B&W...monochramitic vision but also see in shades of blues and yellows, or dichromatic....

I then ask this question, if they are all the same then why all the patterns? Yup, marketing....but I have to say this, The Fall Brown IMO is thier best pattern and have worn it through the winter season, spring seasons etc.
Having the opportunity to own them all, IMO ASAT has performed for me better than Predator but I wouldn't hesitate buying Predator again, in fact if my current pattern didn't exist, I'd be exclusively Predator because of where I feel ASAT is currently at.
ALSO, IMO a Leafy pattern far out performs standard camo and I would LOVE to see Fall Brown in leafy.
