Rhodesian Camo
Rhodesian Camo is a classic camouflage pattern created in the 1960s for the Rhodesian Armed Forces (today's Zimbabwe). It was designed for military operations during regional conflicts, especially the so-called Bush War (1964–1979), and was adapted to the conditions of Southern Africa - dry bush, grassy plains, and low vegetation. The pattern is characterized by a unique, hand-painted appearance resembling brush strokes. It consists of irregular, horizontal shapes in shades of green and brown placed on a light green or sandy background. The three-color, contrasting palette and the arrangement resembling natural environmental elements such as leaves, branches, and grasses effectively disperse the silhouette's contour and make it difficult to detect in a vegetated landscape.

Durable material, performs well even in difficult conditions and you don’t have to worry about damage. The camouflage looks attractive in person. The clothing is comfortable and has a lot of pockets, which is definitely an advantage.
-
I already had long pants in this camouflage, so I decided to buy the shorts. The camouflage is unusual and rather rare. As usual, Helikon provides high quality workmanship. The shorts are lightweight, very comfortable, and functional. I am satisfied with the purchase.

These are another pair of pants from this brand that I've bought, this time in a short version. It's a proven product—very comfortable to wear. The fit is well-tailored to the silhouette, there are lots of practical pockets, and the workmanship is solid and flawless. According to the size chart, they're a little too big, but only slightly, which actually turns out to be useful, for example when cycling. I recommend this product.

Comfortable summer shorts. An interesting type of camouflage, not very common, but looks great in person. The material is solid and resistant to damage. I definitely recommend them.
-
To be honest, the back cut could be better because the material sticks out a bit strangely under the middle belt loop. Other than that, these are very solid shorts.
-
Very good shorts. Impeccable workmanship, practical cut, and excellent arrangement and number of pockets. They performed perfectly during the heat in Cyprus exceeding 40°C. I especially like the brush stroke camouflage. I sincerely recommend them!
-
Great shorts with many practical pockets; the open ones in the back let you quickly stash small items. The thoughtful organization makes sure nothing gets in the way in the pockets. Additionally, the perfect length for summer—other models pale in comparison.
-
These shorts are very comfortable and well-designed. Their length over the knee means you won't be too hot even on scorching days. The sturdy zipper and strong Velcro keep them securely in place. The pockets, slightly diagonal on both legs, are practical and comfortable. It's worth checking the size carefully—although I usually choose L, here it was safer to order XL. I definitely recommend them!
-
Very nice, short cut of the shorts. The pockets are convenient, spacious, and do not restrict movement or fit tightly around the legs. I am eagerly awaiting new color versions or other camouflages.
