My shirt is a first generation CADPAT, so several years old now. I've worn and washed my issue shirt many times, and it hasn't faded significantly. It was pretty much in the condition it's in now when I got it 2 years ago. The Frontenac pants I bought at the same time though... well, not so good. The greens and browns have faded a lot, and the black looks more like blue than black now. The fabric is still good, but the colours are fucked.
So yeah, I'll be replacing them with some proper issue pants in the near future. I would have bought the real issue pants along with the shirt when I got it, but unfortunately, the only pants they had in my size that day were in horrible condition, so I got the Frontenac instead. I paid double for it too. I won't be making that mistake again. It's all surplus issue stuff for me now for CADPAT.
