Close-up Plain Tree camouflage pattern, a brown color base with forest green and light green dapples. This camouflage machine printed on large cloth bundles and cut to size for smocks, helmet covers, face masks, sniper veils, etc. SS military researchers discovered that repetitive patterns broke up the uniform's camouflage blend with the environment. In addition, excessive sunlight faded the colors and neutralized its concealment abilities.

By late war years, a machine roller technique was employed to enhance camouflage patterns using forest green + red brown + dark olive drab.
