Were all German WW2 winter camo uniforms reverse camo to autumn camo?

If I recall there was one set that reversed to a mouse grey. Can't remember what style though.

There was no official distinction as spring or autumn camo in the SS, also green camo was used for winter uniforms (relevant patterns are blurred edge, oak A and B, exceptionally plane tree), in use from autumn 1943. The mentioned grey/white combination was introduced in autumn 1942.

The two-piece Heer snowsuits were white one side, and green splinter pattern (similar to Fallschirmjager jump smocks) on the reverse.

Some were reversible to the tan/water pattern too.
