“Inspired by the historic architecture, the 2020 Navy uniform highlights the marble stone pattern featured in its landmark buildings: the Naval Academy Chapel and Bancroft Hall,” Navy’s website noted.
“The high contrast of the white veins on the navy stone liken to that of the whitecaps on the rough open seas. This custom pattern was appropriately named ‘Ocean Camo’ by the Under Armour design team.”
