USMC Desert Marpat Boonie Hats
Captain Price just found his new favorite hat
Looking for a boonie cap that stands out from the crowd? Tired of age-old and easy to find GWOT (Global War on Terror) camo patterns? Sick of Amazon airsoft knockoff digital desert patterns? Well, you’re in luck, and have come to the right place, because these United States Marine Corps Desert MARPAT hats are the perfect choice for your head. Not only are they the most modern option for protection against sunlight hitting the surplus world, the camo pattern is a rare find, just recently being authorized for surplusing. These hats are the real deal, Department of Defense certified, authentic United States Marine Corps current issue, desert digital at its finest. Tough as the Marines who wear them, these boonies will outlast even the most austere conditions!
MARPAT (Marine Pattern)
MARPAT, short form for Marine Pattern, was a camo first conceived as a concept in 2001, and was eventually adopted between 2001 to 2002 as part of the Marine Corps Combat Utility Uniform program (MCCUU). The camo itself is made up of pixel generated designs, directly inspired and based around Canadian CADPAT (your favorite relish). Theoretically as a result, this allows it to exceed traditional camo fabric patterns by copying textures and jagged boundaries found in the environments it is used in. MARPAT also holds an intimidation factor, as used exclusively by the Marines, as it is intended to strike fear into OPFOR who see it and recognize their adversary by the aforementioned branch.
Features
Four mesh ventilation ports on around sides of the hat to increase keep your head cool
Brim is reinforced and wide, providing superior protection against saharan sun
Chin strap is adjustable to fit a variety of head shapes and lengths
The Eagle Globe and Anchor insignia is sewn on front of the boonie
Ripstop material build ensures the boonie is durable as it is weightless typical of new USMC surplus, while also being built to resist fading and being damaged when washed.
