Commonly known as “blueberries” due to its distinctive blue pattern, this digital camouflage pants were used as the U. S. Navy’s working uniform. They feature military cargo pockets for convenient storage of essentials and have reinforced stitching for a comfortable and secure fit.

In modern times, the term "digital" has been applied in various ways to camouflage design. Currently, the most precise definition is a pattern created by computer algorithms for more efficient disruption. Traditional designs, on the other hand, utilize larger patterns. The principle behind digital design is that defined color patches are easier to see, while blurring the edges makes it harder to discern. While "pixelated" more accurately describes this type of camouflage, "digital" has become a common term in military and collector circles. The first country to adopt a true digital design was Canada in 1997 with their CADPAT pattern. This was then adapted by the US Marine Corps as their MARPAT design. Since then, several countries have also adopted digital or pixelated designs, some with practical effectiveness and others with a more fashionable approach.
