sup sc/out/s
i washed my boonie hat in water that was too hot and now it doesn't fit. What do you all prefer for outdoor headgear? If anyone can recommend something that is wide brim and packable, i'd appreciate it

I wear a turban that's shades my face depending on how I shape it or cover my face save for my eyes

Thinking about getting those wide rim hats that have a flap on the back and sides to protect the neck and a flap to the root of the nose.

Basically I don't want directly light on my face especially but really anywhere on my body

I usually use a ushanka. Keeps you warm in the winter (which is the majority of the year here), keeps the sun off in the summer (you'd be surprised at how it's not too hot) and can be used as a pillow.

No, it's a proper oil skin hat. Perfect hat for Australia or New Zealand, where it's sunny one moment then torrential downpour the next. Handy fucking hat, it's not really the kinda hat you take off and store in your bag. They're good hats there's a reason people have been wearing oilskin bush hats for hundreds of years.

I wish I could wear my PC without looking like a sperglord.

The closest I've found to that comfort is just a baseball cap, I like the Condor one, it isn't the same though. Anyone else?

There's a couple companies that make PC-style hats in non-camo patterns specifically for /out/, I would just personally prefer a longer brim on mine for pretty much anything other than shooting.

Hell you can even get them in sand (light tan) or khaki and LARP as an FFL soldier with a ranger roll.

You can get literally the same thing for 3$ from dollorama.

I just wore one for 6 days out in blackfly and mosquito hell. You don't need a fancy expensive hat of this is the type of thing you're after

Propper would be my go-to, they actually sew to the actual military specs. Otherwise you have literally thousands of Chinese companies, 5.11, Blackhawk!, and a bunch of other tacticool companies.

You can also find unbranded ones at department stores like JC Penney, as well as Walmart.

TNF and Marmot used to make one, each, but I haven't seen them for sale for a few years.

Propper is rhd closest but it you've seen the style of the newer OCP caps, it's a little different. Maybe I only like them because I'm always wearing it. Propper is closer to the older ACU and BDU stuff, not bad so it'll have to do. I might check out the 5.11 before I commit to anything

I personally hate the OCP cut, it's somehow worse to me than the ACU "all season" cut.

Hot weather BDU cap FTW.
