The leopard print camouflage worn by the Ghana Immigration Service Border Protection Unit belongs to a pattern family with roots in the mid-1970s, when similar designs appeared almost simultaneously across several African militaries. The earliest confirmed examples are Zairean — associated with the Kamanyola Division, with photographs documented from a 1976 parade. A closely related pattern appeared in Chad, worn by the Garde Présidentielle; the same design was documented in the ranks of FROLINAT. The GIS variant, worn by the Border Protection Unit since approximately 2007, sits in this lineage — a mostly green colorway with the large irregular spots characteristic of the family.
A full-zip jacket in 300g/m² poly-spandex with a waffled texture — stand collar, regular fit. Heavier than a fleece, more structured than a knit; works as a substantial outer layer in cooler conditions.
Care: machine wash cold, tumble dry low, do not bleach, do not iron or dry clean
