The uniform, in a pattern designated KO3 "Ryś" (Lynx), was presented at the headquarters of the 1st Legions Infantry Division in Ciechanów, about 100 km north of Warsaw.
Defence Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz said it followed more than a year of work.
"The Polish soldier is the most important, his safety, preparation and comfort of service," he said. "That is why, after more than a dozen months of work, we are announcing a revolutionary change for the Polish military."
The pattern uses irregular patches in five colours, whose varying sizes are meant to match the colours and shadows of natural terrain.
It was developed in close cooperation with special forces soldiers and is intended to work in both forests and built-up areas.
Military officials said the uniforms offer about 30-percent better camouflage than the old ones. The new fabric is 30-percent more resistant to tearing and seven times more resistant to abrasion, with better colour durability and flexibility.
Kosiniak-Kamysz said research showed soldiers are much less visible in the new camouflage both during the day and at night.
He said the uniform was designed in Poland, tested by Polish soldiers and will be produced entirely in the country.
The designs have been patented for the first time in Poland and the European Union, and design work was carried out partly at a military research centre in the central city of Łódź.
Each uniform costs about PLN 1,000 (EUR 230). Kosiniak-Kamysz said at least 7,500 will be delivered this year. He presented the first batch to the chief of the General Staff, Gen. Wiesław Kukuła.
Deputy Defence Minister Cezary Tomczyk said 500 soldiers in more than 30 units tested the uniform in all conditions, including in the field. He said every soldier will have one by the end of 2028.
Kukuła said the rollout will begin this year with Tier 1 units, followed by special forces. He described it as a new-generation, multi-environment camouflage that would bring a "radical improvement" in soldiers' safety.
The uniform comes in men's and women's versions. Deputy Defence Minister Magdalena Sobkowiak-Czarnecka said it was the most important point for her personally.
"For the first time in the history of the Polish military, women soldiers will not have to choose what fits them in size from men's uniforms, but have a dedicated uniform," she said, adding that body armour for women was also being tested.
Women make up 16 percent of Poland's soldiers and more than 20 percent of its Territorial Defence Force.
