Personally, I think the pictured item makes for a good mock up of what could be manufactured, not something that should be for sale. - Link (via The Uber-Review)

The other thing, I'm a real clotheshound, and I gotta admit, I kind of like the uniforms, but I'm not into green for the most part.

Actually, we're wearing a digital pattern now, and it's blue and tan.

Can you spice it up with some yellows or reds?

No, you can't.

Is your underwear also camouflage?

No, that's pretty much up to you.

So you can go wild with underwear—and socks, maybe?
