The hat is pleasant, the brim does not deform even after a long time in a backpack, where it could have been squashed. Breathable and provides good protection from the sun. The only thing I would change is to use snap fasteners instead of Velcro for attaching the neck flap – this would improve ventilation at the brim. All in all, I recommend it.
A military hat made of PoliCotton RipStop fabric (65% cotton, 35% polyester), which is highly resistant to abrasion and tearing, and is also lighter and dries faster than 100% cotton material. A removable cover protects the neck from the sun, and an adjustable drawstring with a stopwatch allows for an even better size fit for the wearer.
A special webbing sewn along the hat's circumference creates a system of loops that allow the attachment of camouflage or small equipment. In addition, the hat has been equipped with localized vent holes on the sides with mesh for protection against insects.

The price is fine and the product provides protection. However, if someone expects a product identical to the one in the picture, especially in size XXL, they may be disappointed – the size is only slightly larger than XL (by about 1 cm instead of 2 cm). It also lacks the ventilation holes visible in the picture and present in size XL. I intended to return the product because of these discrepancies, but I’d already removed the tag, so I have to keep it. It's a shame I have a different, inferior product for the same price as someone with a smaller head circumference :(

I am satisfied with the purchase. I usually buy size S, but it turned out to be too small, so I gave it to my son and ordered an M for myself. We are both very happy. The hat works great even in full sun. I chose the Coyote colour and it looks really nice.

The hat matches the description, and the attachable neck flap is a benefit as it can really protect against sunburn. It does not have side fastenings for folding the brim, but you can create them using the chin strap. I recommend this product.

The hat is made of durable material, comfortable to wear, and the size matches the description in the chart. Very good quality. For this price, it's a very good choice. The detachable neck flap will be useful in the summer. I recommend it.

I give the highest rating because I have no complaints. The material is solid, the workmanship is meticulous, and the finish is decent. The size is accurate, the hat stayed on my head even in strong wind during a kayaking trip, and there is a chin strap just in case. There is no problem with sweating. The neck cover is made of the same material, which makes it a bit stiff—sometimes that's a disadvantage, sometimes an advantage. The price is very favourable.

The Mil-Tec British R/S Boonie hat with neck flap in Olive is a great purchase! It effectively protects from the sun and rain, and the neck flap provides full protection. High-quality stitching and comfortable to wear. I definitely recommend it!
-
Overall, the hat is great and fits me perfectly. Very useful in a hot climate like the Arabian Peninsula. The only downside was the lack of a neck cover in my example.
-
The hat is well made, but I would suggest attaching the neck cover with buttons (for those who are handy, it's half an hour's work), because the small Velcro fasteners are a bit unusual, although they do the job. The hat performed well during strong sunlight in the higher parts of the Bieszczady.

The hat is made of good material, neatly stitched, and the size corresponds with the chart. The detachable neck flap with Velcro is practical. It looks good and is comfortable to wear.

The hat is well made, from good material and carefully sewn. The size matches the table. The neck cover fastened with Velcro is very practical. It looks good and is comfortable to wear.

The hat is well made, the material is fine, the size matches the chart, and it is comfortable to use. The detachable neck flap will be useful during heatwaves or in the tropics. More can be said after using it in the summer.

The hat is well made, the material is good, and the size matches the description in the table. Very comfortable and practical, especially thanks to the detachable neck cover, which will be useful during heatwaves or in the tropics. I will be able to say more after using it in the summer.
