Georgian Military Forces cancelled MARPET in year and used multicam in year?
 
According to what I know US donated MARPAT was the standard issue field camouflage of the Georgian Army just before they replace them with their local made MultiCam camouflage variant after 2010.
 
MARPAT was issued as standard uniform from 2006-2007 year, Georgia used both - locally made versions and uniforms donated from US, several variations of MARPAT was used, including Desert MARPAT, but generally it looked like this

Since 2010 Georgian army adopted locally made variants of MultiCam, as in case of MARPAT several different variants are used, including "darker green" and "pink MultiCam" models.

I personally always liked MARPAT more, MultiCam looks like it has been worn out even when its new (look on photo and you will get what I'm talking about), plus quality has really dropped as years go by, Minister of Defence said he will fix this in very near future, lets see.

That's because of to avoid licence fees of the camouflage pattern itself. You see like some of the commercial military patterns MultiCam has a licencing fee so you have to pay lincence costs to it's current owner which is a textile company called 1947LLC if you want to produce the exact same pattern with the same colours and fabric locally. But if you roughly change the colours of the camo without touching the main pattern you are good to go without any fees and legal difficulties may occur.

Makes sense, I always wondered that, thanks for info.
