For the chocolate side

Every year, HELIKON-TEX introduces a new camouflage pattern. In the year of the Fire Horse, it will be the iconic Chocolate Chip, actually designated as the “US 6-Color Desert Pattern.” Developed during the Arab-Israeli conflicts of the 1960s and 1970s, the pattern was based on research conducted not in the Arab desert, but in the southwestern United States with its rocky desert landscape.

This logic explains its characteristic composition of six colors and very specific “chips.” The base color is a light sand tone, overlaid by a slightly darker shade (sand with a slight green tint) as well as two browns – light and dark – which together with white are meant to represent pale pebbles. Finally, black appears as the "shadow" of these small elements. Hence the nickname “Chocolate Chip,” as the arrangement of the white and black spots reminded many people of chocolate chips in a cookie. Classic designs from HELIKON-TEX in this classic pattern are coming soon.
