What Airsoft Camo should I choose?

Your uniform camo should depend on two things, your personal taste and your environment. If you plan on playing mostly in CQB fields, camo isn’t that decisive on the outcome of your skirmish. Although a dark/grey camouflage might give you some split-second advantages, camouflage isn’t that effective inside buildings and dark areas. This is why you will often see CQB players with colorful & very original uniforms.

Playing in a forest/outdoor environment is fundamentally different, however. Having the right camo will most certainly give you an edge on your opponents to make use of. Using the Kreuzotter camouflage in a Central European forest for example will allow you to be much harder to detect, conceal your movement better and fool your opponent's vision.

If you’re playing in a more arid environment camouflages such as the Multicam Airsoft uniform & Stone Desert Uniform might be more appropriate as it will blend better with the brighter colors you will navigate through.

While this choice is totally up to your preference, they do suit certain playstyles. The Field uniform is more suited for overall comfort and to protect you from weather hazards, keeping you warm.

The Combat uniform on the other hand is, as its name indicates, for more dynamic gameplay. The kneepads and elastic material easily allow transitioning from different positions comfortably and without any struggle. It is however more impervious to rain and cold weather.
