Camo Chaos

Camouflage gear has always been a staple in Hip Hop attire yet every few years camo sneaks it's way back into mainstream fashion.

Rappers/Gangstas have been rocking camo from NY to New Orleans for as long as I can remember, be it Mobb Deep, CNN, DMX, or the No Limit Soldiers and everyone in between. It's long been an established way of displaying ones "G'ness". Ready for war.

There are a few streetwear brands that have always stuck to their guns (no pun intended) when it comes to camo offerings, such as: Bape, Maharishi and Addict. However, now designer brands have taken to printing their garments in an array of hues suited to jungle concealment.

Just what you need when you're waiting for the metro.

Complex magazine recently ran a compelling guide to the old DPM (disruptive pattern material) which I think was probably taken from Maharishi's book on the matter.
