Clothing basics
Concealment improves when fabric drapes instead of clinging. This doesn’t mean that you have to wear oversized clothing. Careful fabric and pattern selection can go a long way.
Fabric drape
Fabric choice plays a big role in concealment. You will find that most synthetic knit clothing (think athleticwear) will print badly, whereas a natural woven material will do a lot of the concealment work for you! It’s up to you to find the right balance.
Pattern choice
Busy fabrics, or clothing prints of any kind can help blur and disguise odd shapes.
Dressing for your lifestyle
Ultimately we want to dial in our concealment mechanics to the point that we don’t have to make as many wardrobe concessions. With the right principles applied, you should be able to dress for your lifestyle instead of having to dress around your gun. See how the Enigma adapts to a wide range of clothing types and situations.
