Product Description

U.S. Made Vietnam Jungle Hat, Shooter Brim

Steeped in military heritage, the Government Jungle Boonie Hat offers both historical authenticity and practical functionality. This reproduction hat pays homage to the headwear used by American soldiers during the Vietnam War, capturing the essence of a bygone era.

A Tradition Shortened: The 2-Inch Shooter's Brim: The standard Boonie hat brim proved to be less than ideal for the dense jungles of Vietnam. Soldiers, in the field, often resorted to modifying their hats by cutting the brims shorter. This modification, the 2-inch "Shooter's Brim" you see on this hat, addressed a practical concern. The shorter brim reduced peripheral obstruction, improving sightlines and maneuverability in close quarters – a crucial advantage in the thick foliage.

Built to Government Standards: Durability Meets Comfort: This Boonie hat is a faithful reproduction, crafted from Government Jungle O.D. Nylon Cotton Ripstop by a U.S. Contractor. This hardwearing material, chosen for its military applications, offers exceptional durability and resilience against the elements. It can withstand harsh conditions while remaining comfortable to wear for extended periods.
