Whitetail Forensics Camo

I care about the quality of the clothing about 97% and the camo pattern about 3%. That's a pretty good pattern but a really stupid name. And the clothes look like bottom of the barrel plastic crap.

Usually it's performance first for me as well.

Except my small interest in camo largely centers on patterns I don't like. For example, I don't like Sitka Elevated camos. Despite what I think is pretty good fit and performance from the garments, I'd be happier if the Sitka items I like were available in Open Country, or a neutral solid, or even plaid. If I have something else that performs nearly as good, I usually choose it over a Sitka product in that camo. Out of the myriad of camouflages, there are a few that kind of ruin a product for me.

But I still choose Sitka stuff when it's clearly the best option for the conditions, even though I mostly dislike that certain camo. The Incinerator bibs frequently get used.
 
To me, in order to prevent you from becoming a dark blob, you need an open pattern with high contrast and no white. Also important is a thing called edge enhancement, which many camouflaged creatures in nature possess. A lot of camouflage patterns ignore this and just use random placement. Here’s an article that explains it: https://www.nature.com/articles/srep38274#article-info
This edge enhancement is especially prominent in the clouded leopard’s pattern, which is why I use it in my camo.
 
This wtfcamo looks like something from fresh prince of bel air. did Riff raff start a hunting brand? Also, notice how all their pics on the website are faded and pixelated. Thats a sign a clear photo would make them stand out like a dancer in a 80's hip hop video. At least treehuggin hikers wont think your killin critters when they see you.

But timberpimps might be drawn to the style if they offer it in neon blue and hot pink.
