History I can call this camouflage “legendary” without any cringe. 'Alpenflage' is probably one of the most popular, vibrant, and eccentric camouflage patterns of the Cold War era.

In the 1990s those uniforms turned up in use by various rebel groups across different regions. Chechnya, Balkans and all around Post-Soviet world.
