Scottish walking shoe. Ghillies are black leather shoes worn tradtionally in the Scottish highlands. They are made without tongues to allow moisture to escape should the wearer tread in a puddle or wet spot. The laces are very long and are usually tied around the ankle or calf. Also called "ghillie-brogues".

Ghillies also come in a soft-soled version and are used in dancing both Irish step and Scottish Highland styles. These shoes are essentially the same, but are made of much softer leather to allow ease of movement when dancing.
"Man, these new ghillies are killing my feet!"

A real life garment used by the military, a poncho like material is attached with fresh leafs and woodland materials so the user can blend in with the given enviroment. A suit donned by Snipers, typically SAS and such.
The Ghillie has also featured in FPS video games, COD4, CODWAW, this gives the user(a sniper can only use them) a tactical advantage when it comes to grassy areas, but the developers pulled them off poorly and they rarely work.

An extremely rare creature that blends in with its surroundings and is near impossible to detect, and secretly delivers donuts to people it deems worthy.
The last time a Ghillie Monster was spotted was in 2007, in New Hampshire.
