Camouflage it isn't. But it is "military" so I maybe can sneak it into this thread.
This looks like a skirt I would gladly wear. The right length, pockets, belt
loops, etc., and I like the color.

However, I would not pay $123.00 (plus shipping from Japan) for it.
Also, it is shown on a slim Japanese model, so I don't know how the sizing
would fit my usual U.S. size 16-18. Nevertheless, I think it's a nice looking
skirt.

I have three colors of camouflage skirts. All have been shortened to above the knees and resemble shorts. I wear skirts for walking, hiking, or driving. I have gray, khaki, denim, and camo. I prefer pockets and belt loops.

I wear skirts in stores, gas stations, AND restaurants. If I am going somewhere that I will be sitting, I carry a rolled up tee shirt and bring it into restaurants and place the tee shirt on my lap similar to a napkin. I am confident that I am not exposing too much. My skirts pull up awkwardly when getting in to and out of a car. I use the door as a screen and I wear black underwear in case I show too much, therefore black is less obvious. I have never had anyone say anything about what I am wearing. They apparently don't notice. I guess "attitude is everything." Be confident and act normal (whatever that is).

You got it.
Courage, conviction, nerve, verve, dash, panache, guts, nuts, balls, gall, élan, stones, whatever. Get some and get skirted.

I too like khaki, army green or camo skirts. Sort of incongruous combinations in conventional terms (masculine colour and feminine garment) - but probably works for us in the eyes of conventional mentalities.

The camo of eightO's looks just right.

I do a bit of stone masonry - maybe I will calve this into stone in my spare time.

I found this digital pattern, an interesting variation on
camouflage, in what the supplier calls a unisex skirt.

Does anybody have more information on this supplier?

I am a hiker and nature and wildlife photographer. I have two camouflage "hiking kilts" which are wrap around skirts at just above my knees. Two dress makers/designers are ReitaBraich@cox.net, and AthenaGarments@gmail.com. Be sure to see Athena's videos. Both dress makers are excellent. I wear my skirts in public at gas stations, trails, ranger stations, restaurants, stores. When planning to eat in a restaurant I always sit on a tee shirt in my truck and bring it in with me to cover my lap and knees. I have never had any comments as no one apparently has noticed in over five years of wearing a skirt at least one day a week. I am out in national and state parks, nature preserves, and wilderness areas. When getting in and out of my truck (also camouflage), I check behind me to prevent a wardrobe malfunction and block the front view with the door. I haven't flashed anyone yet. I photograph birds and animals, plants and landscapes. I don't need to tell anyone here how comfortable wearing skirts are for hiking. Unlimited stride and ventilation, freedom, comfort. My skirts are "masculine" and resemble shorts, are not as narrow as pencil skirts, or flare too much.

I'm still looking at camouflage skirts.

This one from Main Street Exchange has possibilities. Maybe about 2 inches longer than I would like.
I would remove the tie belt and wear it with a wide leather belt.
They also have a variety of knee-length denim skirts. They offer "modest" clothing which usually means
no frills, well-made. I don't know if these are "imported," or made in the U.S.
Has anybody ordered from Main Street Exchange?

With the tan lines just above the knees - you have been wearing something a bit longer in the hem length.
Camouflage of the skin not working. LOL !
"YES SKIRTING MATTERS"!
"Kilt-On" -or- as the case may be "Skirt-On" !
WHY ?
Isn't wearing a kilt enough?
Well a skirt will do in a pinch!
Make mine short and don't you dare think of pinching there !

Just purchased a camo skirt from Cabelas -

I’ll let you know what I actually think of my purchase after I try it on.

Dressing/changing rooms still not open around here due to COVID restrictions; so my purchase is a gamble.
