I am an Old No-Body insofar as modern Camo but, I must agree with DW and a few others. Especially the area of Red Plad shirt's and Hunters of day's gone by.
Consider reading this slowly.
I must have spent two hours searching for a Net-Suit and only able to gather what I posted above; Ref...Russian Gear.
I see many younger men around age 30 who are highly concerned about what "Their Friends" think, say, etc...around a campfire about Camo.
I am sure new technology is better. I am not qualified. However, as I watch younger Hunters spend $, I feel a sadness inside because darn near anything I, an OG (Old Guy) say's, will not sway them. So, I mind my own business and keep quiet. But here under this topic, "I Have Learned Much". No, I will not buy any such camo but it allows me to understand things better. 20-30 years ago I looked for anything that would not shine under sunlight. The closest I found was Burlap I had left in the garden and it soaked in dirt/soils and well, I used it to make a light weight Ghillie suit that looked more like a Mexican Serape. I used a Fishing Net to make it. Then made a longer one. I just Hot Glued burlap strips onto the cotton fish net fabric. It rolled up to be a nice Pillow for a mid day nap, afield.
Possibly an arguement FOR; Red Plad shirts:
The Purkinje effect (sometimes called the Purkinje shift, or dark adaptation and named after the Czech anatomist Jan Evangelista Purkyně) is the tendency for the peak luminance sensitivity of the human eye to shift toward the blue end of the color spectrum at low illumination levels.
This effect introduces a difference in color contrast under different levels of illumination. For instance, in bright sunlight, geranium flowers appear bright red against the dull green of their leaves, or adjacent blue flowers, but in the same scene viewed at dusk, the contrast is reversed, with the red petals appearing a dark red or black, and the leaves and blue petals appearing relatively bright.
The sensitivity to light in scotopic vision varies with wavelength, though the perception is essentially black-and-white. The Purkinje shift is the relation between the absorption maximum of rhodopsin, reaching a maximum at about 500 nm, and that of the opsins in the long-wavelength and medium-wavelength cones that dominate in photopic vision, about 555 nm
The effect occurs because the color-sensitive cones in the retina are most sensitive to green light, whereas the rods, which are more light-sensitive (and thus more important in low light) but which do not distinguish colors, respond best to green-blue light. This is why humans become virtually color-blind under low levels of illumination, for instance moonlight.
The Purkinje effect occurs at the transition between primary use of the photopic (cone-based) and scotopic (rod-based) systems, that is, in the mesopic state: as intensity dims, the rods take over, and before color disappears completely, it shifts towards the rods' top sensitivity
Red lights are also often used in research settings. Many research animals (such as rats and mice) have limited photopic vision, as they have far fewer cone photoreceptors. By using red lights, the animal subjects are kept "in the dark" (the active period for nocturnal animals), but the human researchers, who have one kind of cone (the "L cone") that is sensitive to long wavelengths, are able to read instruments or perform procedures that would be impractical even with fully dark adapted (but low acuity) scotopic vision. For the same reason, zoo displays of nocturnal animals often are illuminated with red light.
And a MM's Hunting Rig. Washed Pink is near impossible to fixate eye's on at Night and low light.
With Breast Cancer Awareness, Athletic men wearing a shade of Pink IS acceptable. Our Military will be going to yet another camo. It's more for economic factors and still, men argue over what is the best camo....It all fails once the wearer: MOVES.
I'm wearing swim trunks and Red Plad on a hillside near you. elkassassin, will you be my Cameraman...?
