I bought the UTS 6'', 8.5'' and the long version in Rhodesian bushstroke camouflage and have already had the chance to try them out. They are extremely comfortable, very well made, and the camouflage pattern looks fantastic. I would be very pleased if a field shirt in the original cut, preferably with a high cotton content, appeared in the offer – that would be great. I have also used Texar products and am fully satisfied with them. Shipping and the whole process went smoothly. The sizes also match, and since I don't have model-like measurements, I appreciate that even more.

Rhodesian Camo
Rhodesian Camo is a classic camouflage pattern developed in the 1960s for the Rhodesian Armed Forces (today's Zimbabwe). Created for warfare during conflicts in the region, especially the so-called Bush War (1964-1979), it was adapted to the conditions of southern Africa - dry bushland, grassy plains and low vegetation. The pattern is distinguished by its unique hand-painted appearance reminiscent of brushstrokes. It consists of irregular horizontal shapes in shades of green and brown, placed on a light green or sandy background. With a three-color contrasting palette and an arrangement that resembles natural elements of the environment - such as leaves, branches and grasses - the camouflage effectively diffuses the outline of the silhouette and makes it difficult to detect in the densely vegetated landscape.

Rip-Stop
Rip-Stop weave protects the fabric from abrasions and tears. It is characterized by additional threads woven in at regular intervals, forming a mesh-like pattern. It provides high strength to the fabric, increases resistance to mechanical damage, especially tears.
2-Way Elastic
2-way elastic is an elastic material that stretches in one direction, usually along the fibers of the fabric. Thanks to this property, it is able to provide greater freedom of movement, while maintaining proper form and structure. Stretching in one direction allows clothing to fit more snugly to the body, which increases comfort.
PolyCotton Stretch
PolyCotton Stretch is a modern fabric that is a combination of cotton and polyester with the addition of elastic fibers, most often elastane. Such a set combines the breathability and softness of cotton with the durability and resilience of polyester and elasticity that provides freedom of movement. This material is pleasant to the touch, dries faster than pure cotton, creases less and fits better.
