In business since the 1984, this company started by faithfully reproducing one of the original South Vietnamese tiger stripe designs worn by both ARVN and US personnel during the Vietnam War. The original textiles and clothing was manufactured in Thailand, but production was later switched to the United States in 1985, where products were sold directly to the public through retail catalog companies such as Brigade Quartermasters®, U.S. Cavalry®, and Quartermaster Uniform®. [1]The company has since introduced other patterns based on the original design but utilizing a different color palette or alternative design features. These include the Desert Tiger pattern and All Terrain Tiger patterns.

  • The Desert Tiger™ pattern was introduced shortly before Operation Desert Storm in 1991, and the original production run was purchased by the US Marine Corps for evalulation and deployed with Marine Corps special operations personnel, receiving favorable reviews of its performance in desert combat environments. The pattern has since become a favorite of other American and foreign special operators, and saw use in both Iraq and Afghanistan during Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) and Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF).

  • TSP was also chosen to work with the US Air Force in developing an organizational camouflage design for the USAF. Although the three year program produced an attractive, blue-dominant design, the Air Force ultimately rejected it in favor of a pixelated variation incorporating the same color scheme as the Army's Universal Camouflage Pattern.
