POTD: Concamo Camouflage - The Gear Making U.S. Marines Disappear

Ever since my Concamo Ghosthood Confusion Camouflage System review, I’ve admired the simplicity of the system and respected the amazing efficiency of the camouflage. Regardless of whether the U.S. Marines read our review or not, they’re now evaluating the system. During the evaluation, it seems a few Marines went missing.

In the top image, you have Walter Ising, left, and some U.S. Marines with Tactical Training and Exercise Control Group, Marine Air Ground Task Force Training Command, Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center pose for a photo with “camouflage gear designed to enhance realism and effectiveness”.

The demo featured the "Ghost-Hoodie" collection: lightweight, modular Ghillie-inspired suits that drape over standard issue gear, incorporating 3D-printed foliage elements and adaptive netting for near-invisibility in multi-terrain ops.

Use the link to find out more yourself. The system isn’t very expensive, but I don’t know about availability in the U.S. yet: https://www.ghost-hood.com/

    How quick and easy are magazine changes while wearing this?

      @Ghy139487815 Thanks for the advertising, I guess, but it doesn't really answer my question.

      @Tassiebush Good to know! Every time I've seen this gear it's been worn in Maximum Coverage Mode to show off how well it does its primary job of concealment and outline disruption, but having spent many a cold wet duck hunt as a kid trying to fight a camo poncho on the reloads, it's always worried me a bit how much of a gear-tangling hassle it looked to be.

    The first photo makes me miss the high desert. I do not miss Marine Corps Communication-Electronics School (there's no excess like MCCES!), but I do miss the desert.
