Anyone got recommendations for a good boonie hat? I like the look of the hazard4 boonie, I like their stuff n general and the hat looks good (like the pocket in the top).
Any comments or recommendations?

I just have a couple I got online from an army surplus. Propper is the brand I think. One is a red camo I got for the hell of it. The other is more urban camo. I worked for a greenhouse and didn't need ACU, MARPAT or flat dark earth so I got what I wanted.

I tried wearing boonies for a while, but I'm not cut out for it. Now I'm trying Safari hats. I should have a new one today.
The last boonie I bought was at a gun show. Standard Khaki Rothco I think. I starched the brim to make it firmer and less wavy. Might have defeated the purpose of the boonie, but I liked the way it looked better.

If you look at most boonies brims, there is a spot where they were tucked together when the brim was formed. You can tuck a piece of trimmer line into that spot and work it around the brim. If I can find mine, I'll post a picture.

I've tried a Tilley bucket hat, its good and I like the way it packs into itself but its so bright I feel like a chav wearing it. I need an all round brim in case it rains to protect my hearing aids and / or specs. My winter Tilley is great but I don't think a summer one would blend in in the UK...
