Finnish M/62 camouflage
Republic of Finland

Like the Norske Forsvarets ('Norwegian Defence') and Swedish M/90 camouflage patterns, Finnish M/62 camouflage is a simple, yet effective, camouflage pattern. It is a three-colour design, comprising dark olive green and maroon whorls on a light green background. The colours used, and the general style of the design, are reminiscent of 1929 Telo Mimetico ('camouflage cloth').
