 * Introduced for service in 2007, a desert version of the Irish DPM pattern has been worn by military personnel deployed to arid and desert regions such as Chad and Afghanistan (ISAF). Like the standard DPM pattern, this camouflage was designed and produced in Belgium. It consists of light brown, olive green & beige disruptive shapes on a sandy background.

 * It was announced in late 2019 that the Irish Naval Service (NS) would begin testing a variation of the standard DPM for its personnel with a grey colour palette. The working title for this design is Naval Service Variant Disruptive Pattern Material, and the uniform would theoretically be issued to all personnel of the NS except those serving as part of a Land Overseas Deployment. As of March 2020, there is no indication this design will be implemented.

		+	* The Irish Department of Defence announced in mid-2023 that the Defence Forces would soon begin the process of updating its camouflage field clothing, thus drawing to a close the use of the previous Irish DPM (Disruptive Pattern Material) design. Developed specifically for the Irish Defense Forces by Crye Precision, the Irish Transitional Multicam Pattern (ITMP) combines elements of traditional [[Multicam]] with unique features making it distinctively Irish. Of particular note, a stylized "double F" is integrated into the pattern, for ''Fianna Inis Fáil,'' the traditional name of the Irish Army in Gaeilge (Irish), along with the more common ''Óglaigh na hÉireann.''

	Having replaced wool serge battledress in 1960, the Irish Defence Forces ''(Óglaigh na hÉireann)'' wore a plain olive green combat uniform for the next forty years. The only exception to this was the Army Ranger Wing (ARW), Ireland's special forces unit, which was outfitted with [[United Kingdom\|British Army]] [[DPM]] from the 1980s into the mid-1990s. It was not until 1999 that Ireland adopted its own distinctive camouflage pattern for general issue, which has remained in service to the present day.
