A ghillie suit is a type of camouflage clothing designed to help the wearer blend into their surroundings, particularly in natural environments like forests or grasslands. It is often made from a base suit covered with strips of fabric, netting, or other materials that mimic the textures and colors of the environment. This makes it popular among military personnel, hunters, and wildlife photographers. The suit's name comes from the Scottish term for a gamekeeper or a person who hunts in the wild. Ghillie suits are commonly used in activities such as military operations, hunting, and paintball, where stealth and concealment are crucial for success.
