I bought the cap to match my pants and, as always, Helikon does not disappoint. The material is light, thin, with ripstop – great for summer. Very comfortable cut. Highly recommend, it's a top product.

Camouflage US Desert (3 Color Desert)
US Desert, or the 3 Color Desert, is a camouflage pattern designed to succeed the 6 Color Desert Pattern. Developed in 1990 and officially deployed in 1992 for Middle East operations, the pattern uses three colors: beige, pale green, and brown. This design simplified the micro-pattern and lowered the contrast compared to its forerunner. The color scheme demonstrated superior effectiveness in sandy, arid environments and also tackled the issue of fabric overheating more efficiently. Widely adopted by US armed forces, it saw significant use during the Desert Storm operation, as well as in Iraq and Afghanistan.
