Pattern: Gabon Gendarmerie
A grey CE woodland brushstroke — grey, tan and grey-green strokes on a light grey ground.
About the pattern
The CE (Central Europe) woodland is a French brushstroke camouflage built from broad diagonal strokes, widely worn by former French colonies. Camopedia records that, at the same time the Gabonese armed forces adopted variations of the CE woodland, members of the Gendarmerie adopted its own colourway with a predominantly grey colour palette. This render is the grey CE woodland brushstroke of the Gabon Gendarmerie.
This Gendarmerie colourway
The ground is a light grey, and over it sit broad, diagonal brushstroke shapes in a medium grey, a tan and a grey-green, with feathered, brush-drawn edges. The strokes run diagonally and overlap to break up the surface. The palette is predominantly grey — light grey, medium grey, tan and grey-green — giving the pattern a muted, urban look. The feathered edges give it the characteristic brushstroke texture of the CE woodland family.
How it reads on the garment
Because the strokes are broad and the palette is grey, this pattern prints with a soft, muted, urban feel. On the body the light grey ground sits behind the medium grey, tan and grey-green strokes, giving the surface a feathered, organic texture. It reads as a grey CE woodland, subdued and easy to wear. The light grey ground blends cleanly into the light hood lining and collar, keeping the neckline tidy.
Why own it
If you like the French CE woodland family and want a muted, grey colourway, this Gendarmerie render is a strong pick — the grey and tan palette is subdued and distinctive, quite unlike the green versions. It appeals to collectors of African, French-heritage and police/gendarmerie camouflage. And its grey, tan and grey-green palette pairs naturally with grey, olive, khaki, denim and black. It is a muted, wearable camo.

Made to order
Each hooded tee is printed and sewn to order rather than stored in a warehouse, so the pattern is freshly applied for you. Production and fulfilment take about 4–7 days before your order is handed to shipping; courier delivery time then depends on your destination. Please double-check the size chart before ordering — because each item is made for you, returns are easier to avoid by choosing the right size up front. If a print runs slightly differently from what you see on screen, that is the nature of made-to-order garment printing.
Disclosure
This is a reproduction / military-inspired item, not an issued uniform, and the garment itself is a modern printed piece for everyday wear. The CE woodland naming and the Gabon Gendarmerie association come from documented pattern history, but this is not official issue equipment.
