The problem is with cadpat is that our nice gov as made it copyrighted. So if someone is trying to tell you that it is cadpat they are right and wrong. You see the difference is that the licence is for the patern only. some company in canada have it, Cp gear, carcajou, drop zone, and a few more. others are copy of the patern (what they call canadian digital camo) it usually a cheap chinese copy printed (usually the inside is white). Be assured that if it sells on the market it's not genuine. As for the backpack i would recommend like above go with a standard color like od green, black, coyote... usually cheaper (about 50 to a 100$ less) than a cadpat one wich you won't be able to use in the civilian area unless you want to play soldiers.
Cpgear makes some excellent products, incl various packs in cadpat. They are expensive though but a damn good product. The medical pack is used quite often overseas.
Don't let the people so far discourage you from getting the pack that you want. Not once have I gotten in trouble for wearing my small pack in civies or seen anyone get jacked up for using a non-issued pack in cadpat at work, in garrison or in the field.

It's lame though
Anyways, sharpshooter2010 isn't in the CF so he really doesn't need anything right now.. once he's in then he can start looking for non-issue kit. Best not to buy it now then try to use it at Basic.
Other companies out there that make good bags too, might not be CADPAT but Coyote Brown, etc are good too.
Mystery Ranch, ATS, Camelbak, etc
For a civvie backpack, goto MEC or Sportscheck

I have never heard that me wearing my keffiyeh, or as you call it, Shemagh and not have been deployed is a fashion no-no in the Forces. No wonder there is a Sgt. that threatens various things to me if I ever wear it on duty! Now I see the light.
But what do I do? I have worn one since before Afghanistan was a hangout for the Canadian soldiers, so do I have to give it up because I joined? They were popular in the '80's, some thought it looked fashionable and some wore them in support of various groups.
What is the rule? I wear it as it is a good piece of clothing in the winter, much better than any scarf I have ever found (other than the issued one).
