Whatever you call it military, khaki, or olive green clothes and this color go way back. And like many icons of style, whether Burberry’s gabardine trench coat, the MA-1 bomber jacket, aviator sunglasses, cargo pants, and even the cardigan, it can be traced back to the frontline.
This particular green was first used by the armed forces as a simple, one-tone camouflage, allowing its user to blend seamlessly into the landscape. In fashion, it s been used to stand out.
For more than a century, military gear has been repurposed to fit the needs of everyday people. Now, with the fallout from gorpcore’s explosion continuing to create wild demand for tech-heavy goods, the aforementioned military items still show no signs of disappearing from the fashion ranks.
