what's the appeal of camouflage shit?

I just think it's so ugly

Sredni Vashtar · 2015-10-22 09:50:22

The pro-military equivalent of wanting to feel "street," methinks.

Hexartes · 2015-10-22 10:57:12

It's more of a hunting thing in my experience. Rednecks do so love to posture.

Toolsie · 2015-10-22 11:09:42

Yeah, it can be used for hunting purposes. My dad wears it a lot when he goes out to woods for pest control.

(i didn't but if i'd had to take a guess i think i'd have guessed right)

It's actually a trend for military stuff to become "in"

avoiding being seen

It's cheap and some of the only Kmart clothing that is not immediately obviously from Kmart.

Anonus · 2015-10-22 17:43:25

people still buy clothes from Kmart?

why would we not

Anonus · 2015-10-22 17:57:02

I somehow figured Kmart had retreated enough to be a place where people didn't really shop, but then again they seem to be found exclusively in low-income neighborhoods now...

Imipolex G · 2015-10-22 17:57:08

I buy clothes from Target, motherfucker

anyway

same tbh

the ubiquity it once had seems to have been taken pretty much singlehandedly by Target

huh?

how would a store stay open if no one shopped at it?

Imipolex G · 2015-10-22 18:04:52

capitalism has its ways

^ that looks good imo

Sredni Vashtar · 2015-10-23 12:08:23

^^ That's nice enough, but that's more about appropriating the colour combinations and general "idea" of what jungle camo looks like and changing the shapes and feel than explicitly imitating the patterns used.

MetaFour · 2015-10-23 15:26:44

Any of y'all seen the Multicam / OCP camouflage pattern that the US Army is in the middle of switching over to? Whenever I look at any camo pattern, I unconsciously start trying to make sense of the pattern, like determining which colors are "background" and which are "foreground". That's impossible to do with OCP, because of how it has color gradients in addition to splotches. Looking at it too long kind of screws with my head.

Sredni Vashtar · 2015-10-23 15:37:26

Well, naturally. The point is to disrupt the brain's ability to detect the outline of the wearer and any basic judgement of shape or size. It's really quite nifty.

Really who doesn't want to pretend to be a redneck sometimes

Anonus · 2015-10-26 07:40:48
