The KMA Bacteria Camo Desk Mat adapts one of the most unconventional and historically overlooked camouflage designs of the Cold War period into a functional workspace accessory. Officially developed by the Korean Military Academy (KMA) in the late 1960s, this “Bacteria” or “Microorganism” Camouflage featured biomorphic, amoeba-like forms scattered across the fabric in layered tones. Unlike standard military camouflage, it was not intended for frontline concealment but rather for training, institutional wear, and controlled environments where traditional field patterns were less effective. Its primary function was to distort the human silhouette and distinguish cadets or select units in training. Despite its limited adoption, the pattern remained in use into the 1990s and has since become a rare and striking example of experimental camouflage design.
Constructed from 100% neoprene with a textured rubber non-slip base, this desk mat provides a dependable surface for work, gaming, or creative use. The high-resolution sublimation process faithfully reproduces the complex, organic shapes of the Bacteria pattern with lasting clarity, while reinforced edge stitching ensures durability against daily wear. Measuring 32″ × 16″, the mat easily accommodates a full-size keyboard, mouse, and accessories. Rounded corners and a smooth finish give it a refined appearance suitable for both home and office settings.
By bringing the South Korean KMA Bacteria Camo into a modern format, this desk mat combines durable utility with a bold and rare Cold War design heritage.

Camouflage Information:
The Bacteria Camouflage, also known as “Microorganism Camouflage,” is a rare South Korean pattern developed by the Korean Military Academy (KMA) in the late 1960s and used through the 1990s. Characterized by high-contrast black, amoeba-like forms scattered across a white background, it was designed for training environments where traditional camouflage was less practical. Intended to disrupt the human silhouette and visually distinguish cadets during drills and exercises, the pattern prioritized institutional identity over environmental blending. Printed on cotton twill and herringbone twill fabrics, with slight variations between class years, this camo was never mass-issued and remains exclusive to the academy. Its experimental design, limited production, and graphic intensity have made it a coveted item in vintage military circles and a notable example of unconventional camouflage theory.
