Which tactical vest?

As Ian said it depends on where you are and what you are wearing. Some people swear blindly that tan doesn't work in the UK but the simple fact is that it can and does.

 
Yeah, M_P, but let's remember that CB isn't tan, it's light brown. I realise that may sound like nit picking or even nonsense, but CB as a hue contains more red than tan.

In the UK, tan only blends against sand, dried out sandy soil, totally dead grass etc., or dry woodchip mulch maybe, but CB will blend against the much more prevalent dry loamy soil, wet light soil, dry-ish dead leaf litter, and a wider range of living, dying, or dead vegetation.

That said, there is a tan shade in DPM, so clearly it does have a place in European temperate camo - it just depends what other colours are with it.

 
I've give up trying to find the warrior chest rig I liked. Seems they're out of stock everywhere.

The rig I like is available in coyote brown and ranger green. Would coyote brown be the better year round woodland option?

How close are coyote tan and coyote brown? I've noticed no manufacturer lists both and some just use "coyote".

 
I think Ranger Green would be better for woodland. I don't think that officially 'Coyote Tan' exists... I think that's just site owners own interpretation, or perhaps a named colour of knock off gear. I may be wrong though - have you seen CT on reputable looking sites selling gear from well known named manufacturers?
