Can you help clarify why so many of these young homeless with dogs also prefer camo as their clothing color of choice?

  Camo is fairly popular among young people, homeless or otherwise. I would venture to guess it’s cheap and requires less washing too.

  Dirt is less visible on them?

  Their tuxedos are at the dry cleaners.

  Because BDUs/ACUs and similar are cheap, common enough at thrift stores and highly durable. I make almost 6 figures and I have BDUs I use when I'm doing manual labor.

  It's outdoor gear. A lot of outdoor gear shops have surplus in their name, because there's a link between the outdoors, hunting/fishing, and the military. A lot of outdoors people don't like it and would rather wear patagonia vests (like VCs do), but camo gear certainly isn't an unusual choice for outdoors types. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surplus_store https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surplus_store
