Summary:Over the last 60 years, field uniforms of the Land Forces of the Polish Army have undergone significant changes. It resulted from the need to adjust the soldier's clothing to camouflage, its comfort and efficiency on the battlefield. In 1958, the "deszczyk" formula was in force in the Polish Army. After 10 years, it was replaced by the model "Mora". In 1989, a masking pattern called "frog" - "puma" - "crocodile" appeared. After a few years, the Pantera model was used for military use. It was replaced in 2012 with the new "Frontier" design. Currently, work is underway on the implementation of the "Map" model for the troops. The advanced technology race in this area is still visible.
