Black works terribly, and goes with nothing. It's easy to spot, and even at night, camo still works better. Solid color like OD will really only hide you in dense forest, or in single color environments. Modern, disruptive camo has more than just a few advantages. At some point you're going to have to move around, at some point your environment will change, etc. Proper camouflage will always give you an advantage. Even the thickest forest will have patches of shadowy areas, and then all of a sudden there will be areas that are mostly brush, then mostly bare, then mostly deadfall, then ferns it grass where the trees are all a little bit further apart. If your on an airsoft field there may also be structures and things. You should get a camo that'll transition from one environment area to another. Multicam, as mentioned above, works well because it can go from forest, to grassland, to mountainous, to desert. It works well to hide movement as well. Avoid vibrant or bright camos like CadPat, as they only work in the vibrant parts of environments. You may be in a forest this week, then in an urban setting the next. Do the trees in your area lose their leaves and have hardcore autumn, or are they mostly evergreens? Our first field would go from green to brown, abd our second could go from grassland to urban in a snap. Marpat works not too bad in a bunch of environments, as with a few other camos, though if you're on a budget if suggest a transitional pattern (multicam), so you have a wider range of use. Go with what works well and then try and make it look cool. Going for personal look first and effectiveness second will place you at a disadvantage. Also go for lightweight, breathable, low-profile, and ergonomic. That fleece layer may be okay for winter, but airsoft is warm, especially with all the gear and running about.
