Hat M-Tac Gen. II Rip-Stop - MM14

A military hat with a very distinctive cut and narrow brim, modelled on British and Australian hats. The hat has been fitted with an adjustable welt line at the brim, making it much easier to fit around the head. The second generation is distinguished by its special cut with short, semi-stiff brims.

The hat is made from a cotton/polyester blend with added spandex in a RipStop weave. A band is sewn around the hat to allow the attachment of handy small items (e.g. insect repellent, camouflage elements).

Ventilation holes are located at the top so that the hat can be worn comfortably even over long periods of time. The hat is ideal for warm days as protection from the sun, and is also an important part of head camouflage.

The name MM-14 is an abbreviation for маскувальний малюнок (maskuvalʹnyy malyunok = camouflage pattern) and the year 2014 when this camouflage was officially approved. The pattern refers to the American UCP camouflage, but shades were chosen to match the colours naturally found on Ukrainian territory. The introduction of the MM-14 camouflage pattern was an important part of the Ukrainian army's reform to break with post-Soviet identification. Unofficially, the MM14 camouflage also goes by the names Ukrainian Pixel Camo and Ukrainian Digital Camo.
