{"product_id":"tiger-camouflage-swim-shorts-john-wayne-green","title":"Tiger Camouflage Swim Shorts \/ John Wayne - Green","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis batch of McCoy's Tiger Camo is a 100% cotton printed fabric with a comfortable medium weight, painstakingly and perfectly reproduced from originals within the McCoy's archives. Just like the vintage cloth, this pattern will fade over time, changing color as certain hues are desaturated from wear, washing, and UV light, developing a beautiful and period-accurate patina in line with how they're worn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTiger camouflage was developed during the 1950s by the US Military for use in jungle combat, being adopted at various points of the Vietnam war across all branches of the US armed forces. Following the conclusion of the Vietnam war, the pattern was retired and the military moved on to newer camouflages — while Tiger camo continues to enjoy a long and storied sartorial history within civilian markets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \"John Wayne\" Tiger Camouflage is easily one of the most recognizable variations, named such for its association with John Wayne, who wore this particular style in the film \"Green Berets.\" The non-Hollywood models with this particular camo are also called \"Okinawan\" Tiger by some vintage collections, as this is where the original fabric was thought to have been produced, then being sewn into garments headed for the Vietnamese theatre during the early and mid-1960s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese are a very bold swim short, in our opinion. Made from 100% cotton, as mentioned above, we find them a bit more comfortable as an everyday short for wearing on land and outside of the water, as these still feature a comfortable fit, three pockets, and an adjustable drawstring fly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFits true to size.
