Camo print is a classic, that much is true. While the popular pattern has been embraced by civilians and sneakerheads more than ever recently, the green grouping is now so seen that it may actually serve its intended purpose of blending in rather than standing out in a stylish sense. As traditional camo colorways keep coming, we offer up eight variations of the popular print we\u2019d like to see more of. Let us know what prints you\u2019re feeling and what models you\u2019d like to don said styling.<\/p>\n
Playing more on the weather than the setting, \u201cRain Camo\u201d is a theme we wish covered more drops. This un-umbrella colorway has been seen on HUF models before and this year\u2019s entendre entitled \u201cReign Camo\u201d Kamikaze II.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
While Ronnie Fieg gets due credit for his noteworthy collabs, his work outside of the sneaker realm is also strong. We weren\u2019t all about that wildlife when this \u201cCow Camo\u201d clad Del Toro collab first dropped, but in hindsight these are the move. If the popularity of the Mercer pant is any predictor, Ronnie is either ahead of trend or setting them in the style category. More cow camo, please.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Nothing clever here, we\u2019d just like to see all colors under the sun moonlight for green in the traditional camo motif. Blue, red and purple have popped in such styling in years past. We\u2019re down for more shades on more shoes.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Though not quite the mix between rain camo and color camo, watercolor camo made its unofficial debut this year on a pair of Vans. The idea of toning down traditional camo print with brushstrokes may not seem like abstract art, but the finished product serves as a masterpiece.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
A fog facade might not blow over quite like traditional camo, but its calmed colors make for a quiet, reserved alternative. This Footscape release saw a \u201cMidnight Fog\u201d colorway that could certainly take well to other models or even a mistier motif.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We\u2019re pretty sure this is what The Sims were wearing. Around for years and seen in many iterations, \u201cDigi Camo\u201d provides cool factor to just about every shoe it touches. While this print takes well to retro and modern models, it\u2019d be cool to see it go all out on a progressive design.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Next to the standard green drab, \u201cDesert Camo\u201d comes in as the second most seen style. As all-over print continues its second run of reign, it\u2019d be nice to see this sand inspired style pop up more as an accent, as seen on this UNDFTD x New Balance collab.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Conventional camo takes well to summer shorts, spring jackets and fall flannels, but it doesn\u2019t wear well on winter boots. \u201cSnow Camo\u201d solves such a problem, looking just as good on heavy outerwear as it does on lightweight running shoes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
