...will immediately get why this is funny. Those who don't, kendo (剣道) is Japanese fencing, the thing in the picture is the bogu (防具), the armor worn by those who practice it and camo is an extremely exotic version of it; in fact, it is the first time I am seeing something like this and the man selling it was laughing himself when he was showing it to me.
