Great value for money! However, the cut is very roomy. My head circumference is 59 cm and size L is already quite loose for me — it still stays on, but in strong wind the hat could fall off my head.
Developed to meet personal equipment standards of U.S. Army personnel, the field hat features four mesh-covered vents for optimal head ventilation, which are further shielded from insects. The wide, structured brim offers reliable defense against sun exposure and rainfall, making the Boonie Hat a solid choice for field use.
Constructed from breathable cotton fortified with a Rip-Stop weave, the hat ensures both comfort and durability. A tape band is sewn above the brim, enabling the attachment of small, essential gear. Secure fit is achieved through fastening cords that are finished with a plastic toggle, allowing for easy adjustment to the wearer’s head size.
WASP I represents a cutting-edge series of PHANTOMLEAF® CIV-TEC® camouflage patterns, developed exclusively for MIL-TEC®.

The WASP I Z3A variant is specially formulated for effectiveness in environments with dense green vegetation, including leafy and coniferous forests as well as tropical jungles.

Super hat, cotton makes it comfortable to wear and your head doesn't sweat like with polyester. The wide brim can easily be bent into any shape you like. I recommend it, the price is great.
-
The hat protects against the sun, has an interesting camouflage pattern, and the brim is quite wide, so it fulfills its purpose. However, the hat is rather low but fits well on the head, and it is made of cotton, which significantly affects breathability—the head does not sweat. I recommend it.
-
The hat along with the scarf, which can be purchased as part of the same set, is perfect for camouflage both in the forest and in the field/meadow. The cap has small ventilation holes, which is a plus during the summer heat. It is lightweight and fits into a backpack without any problem.
-
A practical hat with a not too large brim. Importantly, it is made of cotton so the head does not sweat. It is quite wide for its size but it doesn't squeeze the head. In strong wind, the strings prevent it from being blown away, and the camouflage is great. I recommend it.
-
Quality hat with good camouflage pattern for forest conditions. Material: cotton. Sits well on the head, has ventilation holes and it feels quite comfortable. There is also a safety cord so you won't lose your hat if you catch it on a branch.
-
A good, neat hat, the head does not sweat, it has ventilation holes, the skin breathes because it is made of cotton. The brim is quite large and protects against the sun. I recommend it.
-
A neat hat in good camouflage. The size matches the size chart, it's not too loose, but it also doesn't press on the head. Breathable, your head can breathe because it is made of cotton and has ventilation holes. The brim is just right, not too small, not too big.
-
Super hat, cotton makes it comfortable to wear and your head doesn't sweat like with polyester versions of headwear. The brim is quite wide and can be easily bent into any shape you like. The tapes are quite stiff but that's not a problem because honestly, how often will I be wearing things on my head?
-
The hat is very well made, there are no imperfections anywhere. It covers the head well and protects from the sun. Good quality cotton - dries quickly. An advantage is the sewn-in tape.
-
It will be perfect for going into the bushes and shooting with an airgun, for mushroom picking, or even if you get called up for reserve training and sent to some training ground, so you don't have to wear the regulation uniform in your free time.
-
I wanted to have a whole set in the new WASP Z1B camouflage, so I couldn't miss the hat offered by the store. The quality of workmanship didn't surprise me because I had already had the opportunity to use similar Mil-Tec products before and I was always satisfied. Same with the sizes - I was never disappointed and always took according to the chart. I recommend!
