It is widely known for having been worn by the actor John Wayne, and is affectionately known by the nickname \"John Wayne Pattern.\" To be precise, the version worn in the movie was a custom-made Tiger Stripe designed specifically for the film.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"398\" data-start=\"272\"\u003eTiger Stripe camouflage was primarily used by the South Vietnamese Army and special forces, but much of it was produced by private manufacturers in Okinawa, Japan, and throughout Southeast Asia. As a result, there are subtle differences in specifications depending on the production period and factory, and today they are classified by pattern and studied as subjects of research. This Okinawa Tiger Pattern is known to be made in Japan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"398\" data-start=\"272\"\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"428\" data-start=\"400\"\u003eThis particular piece strongly retains the distinctive features of the US cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"608\" data-start=\"430\"\u003eThe chest pocket is large and features two buttons. Additionally, the left sleeve is equipped with a small pocket for storing first-aid supplies such as tourniquets and bandages. This detail is unique to the US cut and was simplified in the Asian cut of the same period.In the Asian cut, the chest pocket typically has only one button, and the sleeve pocket is generally omitted. This is believed to have been driven by the need for efficiency in mass production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"625\" data-start=\"610\"\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"625\" data-start=\"610\"\u003eThe camouflage pattern itself is truly captivating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"726\" data-start=\"627\"\u003eThe contrast created by the deep black stripes, olive green, and khaki possesses a power and intensity not found in the later \"tiger stripe\" patterns.It is truly the quintessential pattern, worthy of being called \"the very essence of tiger stripes.\" The overall color retention is excellent, but years of aging have given the fabric a distinctive yellowish tint.
