Rhodesian Brushstroke was the legendary pattern utilized during the Rhodesian Bush War from 1965-1979, incorporating an innovative combination of khaki, brown and green. It was designed as an indigenous Rhodesian pattern which was directly influenced by earlier “brushstroke” styled patterns including the Second World War-era Denison smocks. Developed from an earlier arid pattern by Di Cameron, it was manufactured in its distinctive green-over-brown Brushstroke by David Whitehead Textiles. Uniforms and jumpsuits in this pattern become synonymous with Rhodesia’s legendary Troopies and Masodja.
In 2001, the United States Marine Corps camouflage testing scored the old Rhodesian Brushstroke pattern to be extremely effective in various environments. As a testament to the lasting effectiveness of Rhodesian Brushstroke, the vintage pattern scored higher than many other contemporary patterns. After the Rhodesian Bush War, a brown-over-green pattern was adopted by the Zimbabwean National Army.
In our continued quest to produce this camo pattern, we have accumulated a large number of "seconds" where quality just isn't up to snuff. In this case, these fabric bolts ended up having an ugly white backing due to an error in the printing process. After lots of logistical shenanigan's, we're making bolts of these fabric available at a wickedly discounted rate.
Each bolt is 100% twill cotton and features a correct Rhodesian Brushstroke pattern on a 1 to 1 scale with the original David Whitehead Textiles wartime bolts, but with the incorrect white backing. The individual fabric bolts measures 57 x 23.5" and weighs 212g overall. Perfect for your whatever meme projects you have on the go, or to patch up your other Rhodesian Brushstroke kit.
