QILO x Kommando Store “South Africa” Capsule

Soldier 2000 Pattern

This isn’t your dad’s Chocolate Chip Pattern.

Hailing all the way from South Africa, this pattern was used during the early 2000s and onwards as the South African National Defense Force wanted to part ways with its “Nutria brown” past.

On the military surplus market, it’s a rare commodity, being banned from civilian ownership outright in South Africa.

There’s even been a few high profile arrests of individuals appearing on TV wearing Soldier 2000, and the few scraps of it that exist outside South Africa are hard to come by.

The best way to get the real deal is to know a guy, but as they say, “TIA, This Is Africa”.
