Sneak about with aplomb in Adidas Originals camouflage
BASICALLY EVERYONE started wearing camouflage after the military coup of 2006 – it just seemed so chic – and we’re still wearing it seven years later as we continue grappling with the political fallout of the Army putsch.
Camouflage is a handy way to avoid red and yellow in your wardrobe, and despite its original intent to keep you hidden, camouflage always has a way of standing out in a crowd.
With the streets steaming up again today, Adidas Originals has helpfully stocked up on funky camouflage-patterned casual wear. You might need it if you’re planning to, you know, go duck hunting. You don’t want the ducks to see you.
The usual muted tones of green, brown and grey predominate, the better to blend in to Bangkok’s concrete, steel and neon backdrops.
You have your smart Adi Firebird and cotton Print Hoodie jackets – yes, they have a hood. They go great with the sweatpants on sale and the screened camouflage T-shirts stamped with the brand’s logo.
You can get camouflaged canvas shoes, too, and brown canvas backpacks and shoulder bags with camouflaged straps. Whoever “they” are, they’ll never see us, especially if everyone’s dressed the same way.
