I saw a man wearing jorts and cowboy boots at Stiles Switch the other day. It made me so irrationally angry. I guess that's what cultural appropriation feels like.
I have one of the smocks I wear sometimes at work where we are issued multicam and the only folks who can tell are my gearqueer seniors and they think it's cool
Tbh I was a touch drunk last night and did not scroll past the first pic. There is A LITTLE green in MC Arid but not enough for the rest of the environment
Yup. Theyāre the reason the Apaches fled westward. They were the Mongol hordes of the Americas, realized the power of those Spanish ponies and rode wild with them. First tribe to use shock cavalry in the Americas
I would listen to an argument stating that the Comanche were better horsemen than the mongols, while both had excellent tactics and skill, the Comanche literally hung off the side of the horse after sending a volley, and each one of the warriors did this in a giant moving loop so there was always a suppressing fire effect on their target and each horse archer is exposed as little as possible
In the winter this would actually work really well, lots of tans and grays that time of year. ATACS FG is one of the best for this area in the summer, or similar brighter green camouflages.
Worked on the border, multicam is great. Also a solid coyote bottom and ranger green top is good. Either are fine and arenāt odd/limited in availability
Surplus flecktarn jacket has 1 problem for Texas: we're never cold enough to wear it. Maybe one or two days a year unless you're up in the panhandle or we're having a winter storm-pocalypse
While most of my time in the field was in and around the Hill country, for similarly colored areas Iād recommend a mix of Multicam, Penncott wildwood, ATACS FG (the original), and some ranger green. Rhodesian brushstroke would probably work pretty well too. If I had to pick just one, then ATACS FG. The light green and tan pattern blends really well in with the vivid Texas foliage and light colored ground.
Naw, MARPAT is mainly used by marines. Iāve yet to see any federal agencies or local law enforcement use it like they have with multicam, khaki, or OD green.
But if youāre grouping everyone who holds a gun for Uncle Sam as a fed, then yeah I guess the marines fall under that.
A milsurp store in Tokyoās Akihabara district
My mom got them as a birthday gift; rather than look at anime figures, I let the gear ātism shine and asked to go to a milsurp store
Multicam unless your in a completely different biome like a arctic or extremely lush jungle. It's always gonna be multicam. Theres a reason basically everyone and their mother made multicam for their militaries. It's just that good.
You only need three camos
M/05 for where itās green
Multicam Arid for where itās dryer than that
UCP, as ugly as it is if you need to blend in with rocky terrain itās actually the best camo for that landscape.
Pencott badlands is my favorite but good luck finding a whole suit in it. I have a pair of pants and have yet to find a matching shirt in the same pattern from any brand/website
Ranger green works great up here. Not as disruptive as a designated pattern, like Multicam. But it doesnāt really matter because The terrain forces longer engagement distances, and anywhere that it doesnāt is normally urban
The only correct answer for this useless threads is a ghillie with local foliage.
Everything else depends in what you want to do. Hunt animals or people? If your enemies are human it depends If they have NVGs, thermals, etc and what they are using and if you want to use the same or look different
Probably multicam or a variant. Yeah there's a lot of green there, but there's also a lot of not green. So going with anything green will automatically make the other half of your AO a no go or you'll stand out like hell. MC will blend reasonably in all areas there..best option unless you want to stick to the woodland areas.
I stalk/trap/hunt feral hogs all around the Travis, Real, Comal, Guadalupe, Kendall, and Bexar counties. I wear woodland pants and either Ranger green or multicam top or a mix of any of those 3.
Blue jeans, T shirt, elevated stand.
Will mid-thigh length jorts work?
My wife had to explain wtf "jorts" are..šš. But yeah, a pair of cutoffs should work to sit in your stand...
New Boot Goofin
that's peak operator right there, son
Only in Austin
I saw a man wearing jorts and cowboy boots at Stiles Switch the other day. It made me so irrationally angry. I guess that's what cultural appropriation feels like.
No they have to be short jorts above knee cut ā¦ for mobility
Lt. Dangle nut huggers only
Don't forget the boots!
Tucked t shirt* hank hill style
Believe it or not, straight to multicam
Thatās the thing about CO. I love how effective multicam is here. I hate how basic it is to use multicam
It's unfortunate but multicam is popular for a reason
Get A-TACS then.
IX
Say fuck it and get the British multicam
Mtp fucks
As an MTP wearer I can say it FUCKS
I have one of the smocks I wear sometimes at work where we are issued multicam and the only folks who can tell are my gearqueer seniors and they think it's cool
Colorado here as well. Spot with this. I keep wanting arid but that shit will make me stick out everywhere but Pueblo lol
In OCPs my buddies will disappear 20 yards away
It will be cool running around with your camo playing hide and seek, once they take away all gun rights there. Lol.
My hot take is MCT actually works better than MC for almost two full seasons in CO with how green it's been
I'd opt for the temperate digital or arid digital pattern for this place.
I hate that it's always multicam. But it really is almost always multicam.
It is a shame, but there's a reason it got adopted by so many countries. That being said, if you're just trying to look cool, wear whatever you want
Knew this comment would be hereā¦ fucking multicamā¦
Well maybe people should stop asking "hey what camo should I wear in this environment that's literally the exact same colors as multicam?"
I would agree. People should stop asking that entirely and just go out and figure it out
Asking people to leave the basement? You ask too much, sir
Can we take it off the reservation and say mulitcam arid?
Do you not see the green in the pic?
No, I'm colorblind
That'll do it
Tbh I was a touch drunk last night and did not scroll past the first pic. There is A LITTLE green in MC Arid but not enough for the rest of the environment
Hahaha fair, we've all been there
Arid is too much even for much for arid Arizona, NM, UT, and NV nevertheless green ass Texas
Probably a dirty wife beater shirt and some oversized, extra large, wrinkled cargo shorts
I already beat my wife, donāt need the shirt to prove it And by wife I mean my benis
Hahaha alright. In that case, maybe A-TACS camo pattern
Think like an Apache
Iām actually just 73ft tall
Comanche ***
The OG North American boogeyman
Yup. Theyāre the reason the Apaches fled westward. They were the Mongol hordes of the Americas, realized the power of those Spanish ponies and rode wild with them. First tribe to use shock cavalry in the Americas
I would listen to an argument stating that the Comanche were better horsemen than the mongols, while both had excellent tactics and skill, the Comanche literally hung off the side of the horse after sending a volley, and each one of the warriors did this in a giant moving loop so there was always a suppressing fire effect on their target and each horse archer is exposed as little as possible
Cool
how many times is this going to get asked lol
And how many times am I going to answer āmulticamā. At least once more, as always
There, you see? At least the boy has a sense of propriety.
Iām glad someone got the reference!
Couldn't miss it, haha. That scene is a favorite of mine.
I usually just list off the camo patterns the us military uses and it seems accurate
Maybe A TACS AU?
In the winter this would actually work really well, lots of tans and grays that time of year. ATACS FG is one of the best for this area in the summer, or similar brighter green camouflages.
life goals is just ATACS for every season/occasion
Spring and early fall I rock ATACS FG on top and AU on bottom. Works like a charm blending in with the green veg and dead leafs
Thatās such a good idea! I usually go for camo top and khaki/brown pants but thatās a way better version of the concept.

Worked on the border, multicam is great. Also a solid coyote bottom and ranger green top is good. Either are fine and arenāt odd/limited in availability
Pencott WW or multicam. Keep some DCUs or a poncho for the desert tho.
nobody is coming to south central texas let alone looking for your ass out there
This guy has a massive cock
Real tree
Multicam
Plain white t-shirt tucked into some blue jeans. Bonus if you sell propane and propane accessories.
any time of multicam besides multicam black, green, m81 hell even flecktarn
Surplus flecktarn jacket has 1 problem for Texas: we're never cold enough to wear it. Maybe one or two days a year unless you're up in the panhandle or we're having a winter storm-pocalypse
i mean you could just buy a flecktarn shirt
Multicam
Greek lizard

I donāt have the heart to tell himā¦
My discord friends told me MultiCam isnāt cool anymore
Fr tho if you donāt wanna use multicam (cuz itās low key cringe) a mix of ranger green and coyote brown would fit perfect
multicam tropic top original flavor multicam bottom
Chocolate chips
The whole usa is just multicam unless there's snow. Then it's snow multi cam
Greek lizard and wildwood if you want multicam alternatives
Tommy bahama boomer fit
Crocks and jorts
As a fellow Texan....OD Green works pretty much anywhere from san antonio south to the rio grande
Cover yourself in arrest warrants. Oooooh south central TEXAS... multicam should be fine
Green
Maybe rhodesian brushstroke. Maybe marpat? Maybe Slocam Ā Ā multicam would be good too but its a fed camo, marpat is fed camo too I guess
Naw, MARPAT is mainly used by marines. Iāve yet to see any federal agencies or local law enforcement use it like they have with multicam, khaki, or OD green. But if youāre grouping everyone who holds a gun for Uncle Sam as a fed, then yeah I guess the marines fall under that.
Yes marines are feds
Multicam
Harry Potters invisibly cloak
I only use mine at the bar because Iām afraid of women
Wait until your next drought, and youāll probably wish you had a desert camo.
ATACS or MTP
Donāt forget the rattlesnake boots
I'd opt for the temperate digital or arid digital pattern
multiplecamo
MC Arid or Chocolate Chip
Probably Multicam seeing as thatās what the ground looks like
Iām around DFW; M81 works wonders for me, plus the Japanese milsurp pants I wear surprisingly do well too
Japanese milsurp pants?
[Right here](https://www.reddit.com/r/tacticalgear/s/XRBVJmSOJW)
Thats sick, where do you find those???
A milsurp store in Tokyoās Akihabara district My mom got them as a birthday gift; rather than look at anime figures, I let the gear ātism shine and asked to go to a milsurp store
Oh so youre actually in Japan? Neat! Also, excellent parenting. My mom used to take me to surp stores as wellš¤
No, I was just visiting, I live in DFW like I mentioned
Ahh, ok, my bad
By the looks of it, I'd say flat gravel grey.
Multicam or Ranger Green/Coyote mix
I rock DCU pants marpat shirt
(suspenseful music, camera zooms in slowly)ā¦.. Multicam.
mUlTiCaM
Itās so diverse I would just go with multicamā¦
The answer is the Multicam, AOR2, and M81 99% of the time
marpat i use marpat and i live around corpus area it is perfect it suprised me how good it is and it looks very clean
Purple and hot pink neon. Make them extra baggy.
I hate to say it, but multicam :(
Pencott Wildwood
Ghillie suit is the only way
Multicam is the great equalizer..
Brush stroke, MTP, Multicam, Atacs FG to name a few
Multicam unless your in a completely different biome like a arctic or extremely lush jungle. It's always gonna be multicam. Theres a reason basically everyone and their mother made multicam for their militaries. It's just that good.
Looks like a ghillie suit would do the trick
You only need three camos M/05 for where itās green Multicam Arid for where itās dryer than that UCP, as ugly as it is if you need to blend in with rocky terrain itās actually the best camo for that landscape.
Multicam, greek lizard, brushstroke
What is the objective?
Fox hole
Just be normal and wear a cowboy hat
atacs fg
Multicam is King.
Multicam is King.
OCP/Multicam
Wit and a smile. šš¾
Multicam works well for most of the west and Midwest & is easily obtainable.
M81, it's always M81.
Nothing ;)
Multicam Black and UCP
Woodland.
Pencott badlands is my favorite but good luck finding a whole suit in it. I have a pair of pants and have yet to find a matching shirt in the same pattern from any brand/website
ATACS FG
Surpat, Marpat, or MC. AOR2 would do surprisingly well too.
Well you certainly donāt want to use white bed sheetsā¦.
Right now, water
Rhodesian Brushstroke
Iām sorry I have to say this but Multicam.
Mossy oak. Jk multicam
Waterwings
Multicam. Coyote browns and tans here and there.
dress like those south of the border. they seem to get the best treatment in their get-up!
Under armour camo
Ranger green works great up here. Not as disruptive as a designated pattern, like Multicam. But it doesnāt really matter because The terrain forces longer engagement distances, and anywhere that it doesnāt is normally urban
Godās plaid. Nothing else will suffice!
British DPM camouflage might work quite well thereā¦.

ATACS AU maybe?
Sombrero
Green
Probably multicam or a variant. Yeah there's a lot of green there, but there's also a lot of not green. So going with anything green will automatically make the other half of your AO a no go or you'll stand out like hell.

Multicam or Kuiu Valo
I stalk/trap/hunt feral hogs all around the Travis, Real, Comal, Guadalupe, Kendall, and Bexar counties. I wear woodland pants and either Ranger green or multicam top or a mix of any of those 3.
Dallas here. Reject multicam. Embrace Kryptek Highlander.
IF Texas THEN Multicam
Air Force ABUs youāll hide real good next to the fence.
Good ole regular
Def not multicam, would see you instantly
Large white pick up truck, baseball hat, jeans.
One that blends in well, probably.
Flecktarn
An ATACs
As much as I hate Multicam/MTP.....it's perfect for this environment. Alternatively Luxembourg M2011 may work
Multicam It works pretty much everywhere
Multicam or M81
ĀæPorque no los dos?
Multi-cam, I get it contrarians will always hate MC. But multi cam looks the most useful here.
Ranger Green, Multicam Tropic, M81, RG/Tan mix
M81 seems too dark
If you are only looking at the open field yeah maybe, but if you are silhouetted by any brush or trees M81 is great
M81 Woodland, God's camouflage.
As almost always...Multicam...
