A color for every season: not to model on the runway, but to survive, being unnoticed. A pure white fur is perfect to camouflage in the snow, always present during the winter months at high altitudes. The mottled brown is instead more effective during the summer period, similar to the soil’s nuances: it stands out and camouflages on soil and rocks.
