Definitely stuff I should be doing. Also the recommendation down-thread of goggles to protect the eyes - don’t wanna skip that.

Much appreciated are grey man techniques. One illustration by Travis in (I think it was) the first book of his trilogy was Rayna carrying a green T-shirt until she needed to use it as a makeshift balaclava - making the point that one can make do with everyday objects rather than being tac’d up and worthy of note to TPTB.

On that theme, common dark blue jeans work well at night. No need to “suspiciously” wear cammies. A brown shirt and blue jeans will allow you to pass from “night fighter mode” to walking down the street under the lights with none the wiser. The t-shirt balaclava method also allows easy transitions, with no camo grease paint left in your ears to give you away.

Another great “tool” is a good boonie hat. Not only do they break up your outline, they protect your face and neck from thorns and ticks etc when you push through thick brush. You lower your head, and let the brim of the boonie hat protect your face and neck.
