    Depends what your doing. A lot of fishing gear is camo'd up. RealTree etc was very popular for carping clothing back when I used to fish a lot, assume it still is. Not really necessary for any of the camo benefits though.

    Mountain Biking? Not so much. But then if you were to offer some camo etc to a load of 15yo dirt jumpers you might get a different response. I don't think your average mtb rider is really the right target market for this sort of thing. Most people seem to opt for the less in your face options when there is choice available. Going by the fact that the loud and proud gear is always the last to sell and has 75% off with the online retailers because they can't shift it.

    However I would happily wear camo, because I am like a cross between Rambo and the Terminator.
    For the average weenie on here though it would just look silly. Except maybe pink camo.

    No chance, they only wear skinny jeans and either a lumber jack shirt or wife beater.

      If you see the proportion of camo in clothing as a pressing issue in the MTB world then crack on sir.
