camo jacket

Forest-pattern army coat

A camo jacket is an outer garment featuring camouflage patterns—the mottled greens, browns, and tans originally designed to help soldiers blend into natural environments.

Though still worn by hunters and military personnel, camo jackets have become mainstream fashion: She threw on a camo jacket over her dress.

The pattern now signals style as much as concealment.
