You can't tell without a side-by-side. Huang's is very good.

But when you do put them side-by-side, the differences are obvious. As well, the Huang stuff I got a couple years ago was a clone of the Gen 1 set. The Gen 2 set no longer uses the spandex but rather t-shirt type material, and the pants have a ventilation material at the top of the ass. The pockets are also different, as is the leg-tensioning system at the calf and in the main pocket.

The spandex on the Crye is thick and tough. On th eHuang stuff, it falls apart, frays, and the stitching on the sides comes undone.

I did a photo-comparison some years ago. I don't know if it is still around. I compared Crye, Huang, EB, Tru-Spec, Propper and some China-clones.
