When hunting, camo hunting gear that is comfortable and concealing is key. Clothing and accessories with camo patterns help game to pass by unnoticed, as well as get you closer to making your shot.
Your hunting attire should blend seamlessly into its environment. Gaining knowledge on animal vision impacts can help select an effective camouflage pattern to match it.
Ghillie Suit
Ghillie suits are an effective solution to hunting or tactical applications, usually worn by snipers to conceal themselves from harsh environments or life threatening situations. Their purpose is to do just this – disguising users in ways which erase human outlines while dispersing reflections while breaking up natural shapes with texture and contour breakup techniques.
Miles Tactical’s Ghillie Suit is an ideal option for hunters or snipers looking to enhance their concealment capabilities. Field ready and with its own stuff sack for easy storage, its front torso and pants feature reinforced with urethane coated Cordura to act as “skid plates” when low crawling across terrain that would tear most uniforms apart; its premium stitching further differentiates it from competitors.
This two-piece jacket and pants combination comes complete with a hat and weapon camouflage tape in woodland and field grass colors for ultimate camouflage. Rot, mold and fire resistance make this garment hand wash safe!
Face Mask
Face masks can help conceal the outline of your head while hunting, providing additional camouflage against potential game. Choose one with dark hues that blend in well with your skin tone and features a visor to cover the lower portion of your face and neck; this will keep game undetected even in thick cover or high contrast areas above treeline.
SITKA Gear’s camo hunting apparel is developed with animal vision in mind to keep you hidden even under difficult conditions. Choose a GORE-TEX WINDSTOPPER parka or UA ColdGear to stay warm; or ColdGear and UA Base for optimal temperature regulation – whatever suits you best will provide comfort and effectiveness on any hunt!

Headnet
The Headnet is an effective piece of bug-protection gear for campers, hikers, trampers and anyone who spends significant amounts of time outside. Designed to fit over boonie hats and adjustable to your specific needs, it will protect you from mosquito bites with its adjustable fit.
This ultra-fine mesh repels midges and mosquitoes while still allowing airflow through, making this much more comfortable than other bug nets for hiking or sleeping, without obstructing views of wildlife or scenery.
This headnet features Insect Shield technology to offer protection from ticks, ants, flies and mosquitoes without additional bug sprays. Machine washable and comes complete with its own stuff sack for easy packing and storage, this versatile accessory fits a range of hats well; wide-brim ones tend to work best as the mesh keeps away from your face for maximum comfort while it works in conjunction with helmets without feeling tight or restricting when in use.
Clothing
Clothing worn for concealment typically includes camo patterns in the form of shirts, pants and jackets – typically designed to keep hunters comfortable during long hunts – made up of lightweight but breathable materials like mesh fabric that wicks moisture away quickly while remaining durable and breathable for breathability. Additional concealment or protection features may also include face masks, gloves and gaiters to give hunters maximum security during their pursuit.
Many hunting clothing companies now provide camouflage patterns designed for specific terrains and vegetation types, to ensure the clothing blends into its surrounding environment, disguising itself as effectively as possible and not drawing predators’ attention.
Hunting camo patterns should complement the dominant colors and textures in their surrounding environment. For example, turkey hunters might choose an imitation of foliage to fool a bird’s color vision; waterfowl hunters might select something that conceals from duck eyes while reflecting light for maximum concealment. Fit is also key when it comes to hunting camo clothing – poorly fitting clothing may create gaps and restrict movement which compromise concealment efforts.
