Why is multicam so popular when buying black gear makes more

nice bait faggot

sage

if you're wearing cargo pants and a "tactical" shirt and you have a holster on your hip and a tactical molle backpack on, it doesn't matter what colour you're wearing you're still going to stick out.
and EVERYONE is going to get robbed in a shtf scenario, people will be that desperate.

Black is the worst colours for camoflage. How many completely black things can you think of in nature?

No. Pic related is grey man. Dressing in black makes you look like a jackass.

Is that Anderson Cooper?

>>34512171
Yeah, back when he worked in SAD.

>>34512069
I think the best shtf setup for moving is just some decent boots, jeans or durable pants, layered upper body (tshirt, sweatshirt, rain jacket) with a rig over top the sweatshirt and under the baggy rainjacket (it's hidden). An sbr to go under the jacket as well, and a good backpack (but not tactical). That way ya got what ya need, but you don't look like a dude who's rolling in dough.

>>34512142

The fuck it is. The point of being a grey man is to blend into the crowd, not to look like a fucking undercover agent or CIA.

>>34512279

Those guys definitely stick out. They need to use more short, older, balding, slightly overweight agents dressed like dads. Or, better yet chubby 40 year old women with no curves, people avoid looking at them.

Isn't that Anderson Cooper?

>>34512279
Yes it is, they only stand out because they're the only two in the picture and one is Anderson Cooper, your average normie won't see people like that and go "Oh shit you're a big guy!".

Target Indicator Black.
Black colors might as well be a flashlight when viewed through IR.

Black is the absence of colors, darkness is the absence of light. The two are not similar in even the slightest regard.

>>34512470
Black is actually every single color combined, not the absence of every color. That's white.

But cool analogy, I guess.

>>34512479
>Black is actually every single color combined, not the absence of every color
No, black is specifically the absence of visible colours as all of them are absorbed into the object. White is the reflection of all visible colours.

Your mom absorbs black dick and reflects white.

>>34512470

Is it easily picked up by IR just because it retains heat? I can't imagine the difference being significant if you've got a sweaty dude who just walked 2 miles in 50 pounds of gear. It might be best not to paint vehicles black if you're leaving them off and trying to hide them somewhere.

>>34512552
>I can't imagine the difference being significant if you've got a sweaty dude who just walked 2 miles in 50 pounds of gear.
If he's wearing camouflage clothing with IR-reflective treatment on it, sure as hell is a difference.

These guys couldn't look more like undercover soldiers if they tried

TIL the government issues shoes to gays

Where can I get in on this? Not gay but could use new shoes

>>34512069
Black is a choice, but wearing black is what makes silhouettes at night, as you are darker than your surroundings (assuming they arent dark)
it probably is a better choice in a more urban environment, but past that multicam is better for rural and suburban areas. considering most people go to rural areas in SHTF scenario, multicam is probably the more effective option.

“An Assassin, a real Assassin, had to look like one - black clothes, hood, boots, and all. If they could wear any clothes, any disguise, then what could anyone do but spend all day in a small room with a loaded crossbow pointed at the door?”

>>34512069
Black sticks out just as much as camo

Neutral earth tones on flat color garments = the ultimate Grey Man.

My outfit:
Dark Brown or Light Tan Eddie Bauer Guide pants
Grey t shirt with Green, Dark Grey, Dark Blue button down
Green baseball cap or Tan full brim hat
Hiking boots

>>34512201
It's a big shoe.

>>34512069
If you're in a SHTF scenario or you're an insurgent you want to look like everyone else.

Honestly although all of the gear queer stuff is cool you'd only want to wear it innawoods and even it might make more sense to look like a hunter than a partisan.

Buy your shirts in plaid (or some similar pattern) and you get the benefits of a pattern breaking up your silhouette without losing the 'grey man' guise.

OP has a point but dressing like a blacked out tacticool faggot isn't any better than wearing camo

you're better off with some worn carhartt jacket and dark non cargo pants if you want to be a grey man

IR paired with night vision...what do you think they operate with FLIR goggles?

I'm not exactly sure why it stands out, other than probably the IR light correction, but it stands out bad.

I could go on. I'd just go for something comfortable and durable, camo is mostly for larping inna woods unless you're part of a uniformed service.
