Tactical Gear in Vegetato
Tactical Gear in Vegetato
Originating in Italy, Vegetato (also known as Mimetico Vegetata) was developed for environments where dense vegetation, dry terrain, and open landscapes often exist side by side. Its distinctive combination of green and earth-tone elements, organic shapes, and natural colour transitions helps break up the wearer's silhouette across diverse terrain, making it particularly effective in Mediterranean, arid, and subtropical environments.
Pattern Characteristics
- Mottled fractal pattern with a khaki base; elements in the colours chocolate brown, russet, and olive green
- Performs best in Mediterranean, arid, and subtropical environments
- Effective at distances near and far (thanks to its multiscale pattern)
- Variations include desert (mimetico Vegetata deserto), VegeCam (a MultiCam® colour scheme), and one in blue developed for Italian Navy Special Forces units (COMSUBIN)
Frequently Asked Questions
Vegetato replaced mimetico Roma 90, the pattern that was first used in 1990. Mimetico Roma 90 was influenced by the United States’ M81 Woodland pattern, but modified for Mediterranean landscapes.
Vegetato is a fractal multiscale pattern. Fractal multiscaling means the pattern repeats itself on small and large scales, thereby providing concealment at distances near and far (since objects with different fractal dimensions are more difficult for human eyes to detect).
Vegetato woodland is currently the active camouflage pattern for the Italian army (Esercito). That nation’s Navy Special Forces (COMSUBIN) use the same Vegetato pattern but with a desert and blue variation.
