A military hat crafted from PoliCotton RipStop fabric (65% cotton, 35% polyester), recognized for its impressive resistance to wear and tear, while being lighter and quicker to dry compared to materials composed entirely of cotton. A detachable cover offers protection to the neck against sun exposure, and an adjustable drawstring equipped with a stopper ensures a superior fit for the user.

A unique webbing encircles the hat, forming a loop system for securing camouflage or attaching small gear. Additionally, the hat includes strategically placed vent holes with mesh on the sides to guard against insects.

    This is one of the better hats. The wide brim protects very effectively from the sun. You can tell that the material contains a lot of polyester, but that is a certain compromise. In tropical conditions, it performs very well.

    The hat will come in handy not only during missions around Guyana, but also on mountain vacations or anywhere sun protection is important. The detachable neck flap is an additional advantage. The quality is fine.

    I ordered it in olive green, size S. The fit matches exactly as stated, it is well made. It is very comfortable to wear, and the neck protection can be stowed away if you simply tuck it in. Would buy it again!

    Well made, comfortable, has a practical neck cover that protects against sunburn, the size corresponds to that given in the store, a great choice for people looking for protection for the head and neck from the sun.

    Good value overall, but be aware that there is no sweatband sewn into the hat. The seam where the brim attaches presses against my forehead, making it uncomfortable during longer use. Even my budget Decathlon hats have some sort of overlapping material. I have to wear a merino headband underneath to make it comfortable.

    For this price, it's hard to find any major flaws, I used it on a safari and it worked well. I think it will also be suitable for the garden in summer. My only reservation is about the size – the manufacturer could have handled it better.

    The hat is pleasant, the brim does not deform even after a long time in the backpack, where it could have been crushed. It is breathable and provides good protection from the sun. The only thing I would change is using snaps instead of Velcro for attaching the neck cover – it would improve ventilation around the brim. Overall, I recommend it.

    The price is reasonable and the product provides protection. However, if someone is expecting a product identical to the one in the photo, especially in size XXL, they may be disappointed – the size is only slightly larger than XL (about 1 cm instead of 2 cm). There are also no ventilation holes, which are visible in the picture and on size XL. I intended to return the product because of these discrepancies, but I already removed the tag, so I have to keep it. It's a pity that I have a different, worse 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 sunlight. I chose the Coyote color and it looks really nice.

    The hat matches the description, the advantage is the attachable neck cover, which can really protect you from sunburn. It doesn't have side fasteners to fold up the brim, but you can make them using the chin cord. I recommend this product.

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

    I give the highest rating because I have no reservations. The material is solid, the workmanship is meticulous, and the finish is decent. The size fits, the hat stayed on my head even during strong winds while kayaking, and there's a chin strap just in case. There is no problem with sweating. The neck cover is made of the same material, so it is a bit stiff – sometimes that's a disadvantage, sometimes an advantage. The price is very favorable.

    The Mil-Tec British R/S Boonie hat with neck cover in Olive was a great purchase! It effectively shields from the sun and rain, and the neck cover provides full protection. High-quality stitching and very comfortable to wear. I definitely recommend it!

    Overall, the hat is great, fits me perfectly. Very useful in a hot climate like on the Arabian Peninsula. The only downside was the lack of a neck cover in my piece.
