Ghillie suit Invader Gear Base Leaf Camouflage — Woodland

The Base Leaf Camouflage Suit by Invader Gear is a ghillie oversuit made from synthetic leaf elements, designed for hunters, scouts and shooters operating in broadleaf woodland environments. Weighing 1220 grams, it covers the torso and arms as an overgarment that can be worn over any field clothing without significantly restricting movement.

The Woodland pattern works with the greens and browns typical of European temperate forests in spring and summer: the leaf-shaped appendages break up the human silhouette and cast their own shadow on the layer beneath, reducing visual signature even at close range. Effectiveness depends on the environment: in open terrain or during periods of sparse foliage, the result is less convincing, and it is advisable to add local vegetation through the additional attachment points already built into the oversuit.

Being made from 100% polyester means the leaves retain their shape and colour even after heavy use and repeated washing, unlike jute ghillies which tend to fray and lose their tone. The trade-off is breathability: polyester retains more heat than natural fibres, so thermal management needs to be considered in warm conditions or during prolonged exertion. The compression bag included in the package reduces the packed volume, making it compatible with medium-sized hiking or field rucksacks.
