Camo has been a streetwear staple since the 90s. Today the best camo pieces use it as an accent: a splice, a panel, or a fitted women's cut.
Camo as a panel
The Unisex Camo-Splice Raglan Zip Hoodie splices camo into a 410 gsm cotton zip hoodie. It's an easy way to wear the print without going full combat.
Women's camo
The Women's Camo Off-Shoulder Crop T-Shirt is a fitted off-shoulder crop with stretch, and the Women's Slim Camo Shorts has a pleated, elastic waist. Pair either with a solid black or white piece.
Pairing rules
- Pair camo with black, white, olive or washed grey.
- Avoid other loud prints in the same outfit.
- Clean sneakers keep camo from looking like workwear.
A brief history of camo in fashion
Camouflage started as military gear, became army-surplus street style in the 70s and 80s, and was adopted by hip-hop and skate culture in the 90s. Since then it's been reworked countless times, from bold full-print jackets to subtle panels.
Modern ways to wear camo
- As an accent: a camo panel on a hoodie or tee keeps the look modern.
- In feminine cuts: fitted off-shoulder tops and slim shorts change camo's tough image.
- With denim: camo and washed denim are a classic pairing.
- Tonal: olive camo with olive or khaki pieces looks deliberate.
Outfit ideas
- Camo-splice zip hoodie, black tee, light-wash jeans.
- Camo off-shoulder crop, wide black pants, white sneakers.
- Slim camo shorts, oversized white tee, chunky trainers.
