Bushrag Desert Ghillie suit DIY kit February 19, 2008

The desert kit came with lots of tan, a good amount of black and brown, some light green, and a sort of dark green. Hard to go by the website's color descriptions because the pics on the site and the actual color of the thread are not very close. They shipped it quickly at a great price.
I have built the woodland kit and it looks great, better than any other premade or synthetic kit out there. Couple of things I notice about jute though, when it gets wet it tends to twist up with other close by threads making big jute dread locks. Not sure if that's good or bad looking but I end up untangling them to get the bulk and cover back.
Also, in the untangling process the threads end up unraveling at the ends and releasing fuzz and giving the suit a fuzzier look, again, I don't know if that's good or bad.
They give you a good amount of brown and black in both the desert and woodland kit however I ended up taking all the black out of my suit and taking away any large patches of brown. The black just really stands out too much and the brown as well though the brown is ok if it's scattered lightly.
I would say buy this suit if you want to make it exactly the way you want and to end up with something two or three times better looking than the premades out there. Because it's a net based system you can add and remove colors depending on where you tend to use your suit. You could even alter it with the seasons. I'm making a second suit now because I know pretty soon the green grass is going to die out and changing all the thread on the suit would be too much plus the BDU I built it on is green.
I also started my current suit as a crawl suit but I found that I wasn't doing a whole lot of crawling so I'm going to convert it to a standing suit by adding some more netting to the front.
Flexibility is very important. I know I would be very disappointed in an expensive sewn suit such as most of the premades are that was difficult or impossible to alter.
I would also recommend a flight suit base. I built knee pads into mine and they tended to pull my pants down until I rigged suspenders. I used cordura and exercize padding and they are godly knee and elbow pads.
