Description
Big Foot Ghillie Suit Maple Leaf Camouflage
The Big Foot Ghillie Suit Maple Leaf Camouflage is a full ghillie-style camouflage outfit from Big Foot, made to break up your outline when you are lying up in woodland, hedgerows or long grass. This version uses a Maple leaf pattern, which uses leaf-shaped detail to mimic foliage and suits deciduous woodland, leaf litter and areas of mixed cover.
A ghillie suit works in a different way from printed camouflage. Instead of relying on a flat pattern, it adds texture and depth, so the hard edges of your shoulders, head and arms disappear into the background. It is a popular choice for airsoft snipers, designated marksmen and players who like to hold a position quietly.
How a ghillie suit helps
Most players are spotted because of their shape, their movement or a patch of solid colour, rather than the exact pattern of their clothing. The loose, layered material of a ghillie suit softens your silhouette and catches the light in the same broken way that leaves and undergrowth do. Once you are still and in cover, it becomes much harder for an opponent to pick out where your body ends and the vegetation begins.
It is worth remembering that a suit only does part of the job. Move slowly, stay low, keep to shadow and avoid skylining yourself on ridges or against bright gaps in the trees.
Wearing it on the field
A ghillie suit is normally worn over your usual clothing, so choose a size with room for a base layer and any light kit underneath. Keep pouches and equipment simple, as large chest rigs can bunch up the material and spoil the outline. Wear your eye and face protection as normal and make sure the hood or headwear does not get in the way of your goggles or mask.

Compatibility
The suit is worn over normal clothing and can be used with most eye and face protection. Check the size against your build and the layers you plan to wear underneath before ordering, and make sure your goggles or mask fit comfortably under any hood.
Care and maintenance
Shake off loose debris after each game and let the suit dry fully before packing it away, as damp material can develop mould and smell. Store it loosely folded or hung up in a dry place rather than tightly compressed. Hand wash gently in cool water if needed, avoid tumble drying and keep it away from open flames and heat sources, as loose camouflage material can catch light easily.
Who is it for?
This suit is for airsoft players who want to make the most of stealth: snipers, marksmen and anyone who likes to hold a position and wait. It also suits outdoor enthusiasts such as wildlife watchers and photographers who need to stay hidden in woodland.
Please note: Ghillie material is flammable, so keep it well away from campfires, stoves and pyrotechnics. Always wear suitable eye and face protection when playing airsoft.
