Old Camo Patterns

[Cyclic-Rivers]

I've Used Military BDU's for many years.  Dont know how well I blended in but I did see a lot of critters up close and personal.

The biggest problem I had with them was they were cotton, although comfy not warm especially when wet or 20 below.

Old Treestand has to be one of the greatest patterns of all time-- you just disappear in twilight fall woods. I have a few shirts and pants which I plan to make last forever.

I used to have a suit of the tiger stripe,back in the '70's.Definitely one of my favorites.I think it broke up the human form as well or better than any pattern I've used.

For me the old "blotched" camo is and was awesome.  The tiger stripe and wooodland pattern's are great too.

Now you all got me thinking of finding some Khaki clothes and use kyrlon spray paint.

I loved the old Trebark pattern.

I love the old woodland camo,but it was hard to find good quality new clothing in this pattern. I have a buddy that was in the military and we were talking about it and he said I could have his fatiques.

I have a couple of old Woolrick wool shirts in the brown WWII camo. You sit in the leaves in the fall and you just vanish......I like the True leaf that Joe Skipp has shown. Never understood why that didn't catch on!

Im also a fan of the old Mossyoak Treestand and Bottomland. In the hemlocks I vanish!

I liked the old original Skyline - Apparition

[2Blade]

Burnsie your right! Skyline is a great camo cant forget about them!

Dung out my old Treebark coat and pants the other day, and couldn't get the pants snapped and could barely zip up the coat, weird cause my drivers license lists the same weight in 2013 as it did in 1990????

If I could get the original treebark I'd buy in a heart beat.  Best ever for my area.

Realtree extra gray. At the time I thought it was the best looking pattern I ever saw, probably mid '90s. Now looking at all the new stuff, it still may be the best looking pattern I ever saw. Thanks. God bless.

Green apparition was great too.  All the good ones went away.

One of the best older style camo patterns is what the Rhodesian military wore back in the bush wars. Google the pattern, very  effective.... Then again, so were the RLI.

In the early 90's when I was a youngster my dad and uncle both bought jackets with a pattern that I believe was called "Oak Country" I always thought this pattern was sweet, it was like a cross between real-tree hardwoods and the old mossy oak with some beach tree leaves and oak leaves thrown in. I have never seen it on another item of clothing. I wish I could find some, my dad still has that jacket and hunts with it occasionally i'll post a pic if i get a chance.

Original Treebark is one I'd like to see make a come back, it was tops back when I was a kid. Out of camo available today, I like Predator spring green, fall gray & Realtree Max-1
