*Prompt delivery with great packaging **enjoyable.fishing** recommend it’s the hat is just as described with the fit being perfect. Really going to enjoy using my hat.*
I have the Tilley T3 Wanderer made in Canada. Love it!
Cool! www.craigshipp.com/grandseiko
I have the Rothco and its a tough brute. Mine has done the whole number - bushwhacking, car-washing, beach duty, you name it - and it has saved my dome a number of times. It IS very sweat-stained now though. Bear in mind a hat is not only good for sun protection. If you are moving through thorny bush it can save your dome from nasty scrapes too, especially if you have more head than hair like me. I like boonies because they can be folded up and stashed in your bag for when you need 'em. Personally I think light weight is critical.
I have the desert digital ...love it. Also.own 2 other and I won't leave the house without wearing one or having it in my EDC bag. Also carry a Shamogh daily 2 of the best pieces of clothing I've ever had. I'm A old Marine and know these items are essential for daily use.
Well done! www.craigshipp.com/Bitcoin
I've never been let down by R&B inc USGI hats.
They're American made , often around $15 , and they still offer the classic woodland Camo.
Just got two of their boonies in today and am planning on a couple more of the patrol caps.
Been wearing a woodland camo patrol cap every day since my dad gave me his last issue cap he had left when I was 12.
I've gotta stock up so I've got a lifetime supply of them.
Good tips!
USMC Boonie in Marpat is awesome!
Correct!
Nothing beats the South African army bush hat which was issued in the 1970-1988 period. It is unique to South Africa and we manipulated it in many ways. We stripped the thread in the brim and washed it in Sunlight soap to fade it - this gave it "Houding" (attitude). It gave good protection against the African sun.
Check SADF bush war on google
Russel Mills
R&B inc. Usa made. All camo patterns. Less than $20. Worn one for years. Washed many times. Still looks new.
Good to know! www.craigshipp.com/downloads
Good review! The Marine Corps covers are the best! Proper is good too. I have a govt issue type I bought in '84, still using it today! 100% cotton ripnstop.
I've been telling all of my photographer friends to buy boonie hats for protection from the sun. I get mine at a local surplus store but I'm I think I'm going to check out some of the ones you suggested here.
Boonie v bucket difference besides harder brim?
Good video. Should have had a Tru Sec in there for good measure. I recently picked up an R&B from a local Army Surplus shop. They are spot on. I like the shorter brim, but still not in bucket territory. I also have a Tilley, to be honest I think I prefer the R&B, it sits a bit lighter on the head. Plus you can buy 5 R&B for the price of a Tilley.
whats R&B?
B O O N I E!!! Hi Bonnie
also, the latest boonie hat i bought was made by tru-spec. i like it solely for the reason that it has a little storage pocket inside the crown-of-the head area.
Love the hat , awesome very nice keeps the sun off me
There is a Navy version of the Boonie, to go along with both patterns of the Marine Corps versions. Naturally, all three are the same exact cover. I have a Navy, and the jarhead desert camo.
Had to get a Navy patch to sew over the Eagle/Globe/Anchor on the jarhead cover. I didn't want people coming up to me asking me to eat their crayons for tick tock.
OH, and these covers are $15.83 at the Navy Exchange, if you can get in.
Are they made in the USA?
I use a 3 color usgi boonie... size 7.5 got it for $.99 as the high bidder plus shipping on flea bay. Less then $5.00 total. Serki (USMC USN) does make a great boonie.
You can get surplus hats at the surplus store for ten . It is called a cover in the usmc not a baseball cap
You can add water-proof protection to any cotton hat by waxing the top side with Fjallraven Greenland wax. If you wax your hat the wax also stops sweat stains from happening too.
Cool!
I bought a boonie hat 50/50 rip stop etc for $9, in of all places, RiteAid. The quality was surprisingly excellant n it fit perfectly. Even so, I wasnt expecting much. Then I got caught in hard rain for 3 n a half hrs. Everywhere the hat covered was bone dry. I figured it was ruined but the next day it looked brand new. I love this hat and no matter how small I pack it down, it opens up n looks perfect. I guess I got lucky. Thank you for the heads up (no pun intended) on the options for American made hats n covers.
Nice I need to check out my local Rite Aid.
@@-NateTheGreat or Walgreens,When they take Over.
I wonder if it would be better to find the hat material you love most and just wax it for waterproofing.
..always like the old skool woodland camo boonie
I think that the Stich Profi Russian Boonie hat is dope too!
Yo, could we see u in the hats? That would be nice.
Propper the best boonie hat
i have so many marine corps covers haha they are great
Get a shelta boonie, best out there! A bit pricey but worth every penny
They do look good. Similar story to Tilley Hats.
I like the brown ones because I feel like Indiana jones. : )
The best i like( not shown here) is the british boonie hat that has a neck flap.
Rub wax from a candle on them and melt the wax into the fabric wiith a hairdryer..instant waterproofing!
good tip!
Those USMC boonies look awesome, too bad I can’t wear one of those. #respecttheVETS
Why cant u wear them?
@@brandont3675 I don’t wana piss off any vets
@@dragonzord85 why would a bonnie piss off a vet?
@@brandont3675 cuz those are USMC colors, vets go nuts on stolen valor
Some might think you served,..
W_ Anchor& Globe, I get asked sometimes, I'm always truthful, No just an avid collector, I try to find sterile camo, but dig the marpat desert or the standard one.
I get the "thank you for your service" , even when I have a🇬🇧 Brit- DPM ( RAFdesert) pattern smock,. That ends up in polite conversation w/ em'.
Sorry...nothing beats a Tilley. Guaranteed for life, and made in Canada 🇨🇦👍
I have those too! ua-cam.com/video/QBvJWOrNBiA/v-deo.html
Great vid! The one I got from roadeavour is also pretty good.
A PATROL CAP? NO ITS A 8 POINT BUD!
The rapid dominance metal screens for vents don't rust after a while?
Sometimes they corrode a little but they generally hold up well.
You're a very good presenter. I stopped at pacific dominance. I'm off to find it.
I like both of those but by summer my hair will be long and it's super dry here. Comfort is what I'm after. Comfort and extended-wear.
next time wear them to see how they look on the head.
Thank you
not baseball cap. 8 point cover.
Yung Jerry i knew someone would say it
Crayon holder
Wish you had talked about the Proper while you were holding it. Man, poor hat must have felt like a wallflower.
I got 2 same color as yours and a woodland camo
You can pretty much make any hat water proof by spraying it with WD40, or animal fat, but it will make you more noticeable to animal smell.
Is R&B legit military surplus? I have on in 6 color desert.
Tilley makes best I've seen
Thay do make a good hat! www.craigshipp.com/downloads
I wouldn't wear the globe and anchor because I'm not a marine. It just doesn't feel right.
They are great hats. You can put a patch over it.
Nyco not wearable in tropical heat unless military fit but would still reduce efficiency. USMC wanted hard-wearing clothes but at what cost?
I cant believe you dont have the best bookie hat. The Emerson... Why you bother with Propper?
The Marine hat is my favorite by far. They are expensive but worth it.
For this type of hat do you need it to fit just right like a baseball hat or a little more lose.
Some have adjustments but most do not. Best to get the right size.
Bonnie hats in the title though...
Any Clyde hats?
No but here are some amazing watches: www.craigshipp.com/grandseiko
Shelta hat.
USMC by Sekri ... I prefer
I agree. Are they still made in the USA?
@@MidAtlanticTV yes , ofcourse ... Follow me in Instagram andreribeirocabj
Which one has the widest brim would you say? I can't find the Frederick online. It seems to have widest brim. No?
Subbed!
Thanks! www.craigshipp.com/grandseiko
Goonie hats 😏
The circumference of my head is exactly 22" (that's when it's wrapped on my head tight) should I get a medium (22 5/8) or large (23 1/2)? HELP
Boonies are meant to fit a little too big for max comfort.
How do I buy USMC MARPAT Desert Digital in Vietnam?
When did Army switch to digital camo?
It all started back in 2004, when the Army adopted a new-fangled camo called the Universal Camouflage Pattern, a digital pattern that made quite a splash with its distinctive pixelated look.
When did the Marine Corps switch to digital camo?
In 2002, the Marine Corps adopted a digital camouflage pattern called MARPAT. Rigorous field-testing proved that it was more effective than the splotched woodland pattern in use at the time, and the Combat Utility Uniform (of which it was a part) was a striking change for such a conservative institution.
;-)
Check out UFPRO. They have the best clothing you can get.
Will do. Where are their gear made?
@@MidAtlanticTV their gear is made in Slovenia. I would reccomend to check out their 2nd generation boonie hat. Go to www.ufpro.com
@@kristijansusnik1297 I prefer to buy items that are USA made. Whenever possible.
@@MidAtlanticTV i would reccomend buying this boonie hat ufpro.com/uf_pro_products/hats_and_caps/103/striker_gen_2_boonie_hat/ in SloCam camo whic is the Slovrnian version of MultiCam and would compare it to an American boonie hat in MultiCam?
Which boonie do you recommend? I plan on using it when I go to the beach and for kayak/kayak fishing trips. I also kind of want the twig loops to be tight to the hat so I could stitch/sew some big patches on it. Thanks Craig!
Thank you!
Sckarekrow should I not wear my Yankee jersey if I’m not a Yankee? Get what your saying all depends on how it’s being worn I guess. 👊🏻
You can buy comfortable baseball caps and boonies without sporting an insignia you haven’t earned it’s a cover by the by not a cap
Not sure what you're saying but thanks for watching!
And desert camo
So Tru Spec is now producing the Atlanco products....any changes since 2013?
generalPWNS same company tru spec is the division that sells too the public aanc only sells too dealers
How's the sizing on that R&B? True?
As a civilian, I wouldn’t feel comfortable wearing a Marine emblem on a hat I was wearing.
Than don't wear one.
CraigShipp.com I don’t.
How do I get one?
eBay will work.
Can i have the link for the USMC MARPAT in Desert Digital ?? or something similar to this hat
thank you sir
Figured I'd just put this comment here.
Just got a 20$ semi-junk boonie hat from the Russian manufacturer BARS that are a military contractor for their armed forces. Not mil-spec, full on contractor as far as I am aware.
This boonie is the favorite Russian khaki, at least three times thicker than the hats in this video, more shallow than them and the adjustment cord is... the plastic restrainer that is used to adjust the string that goes under your chin, that thing has the string strung through in such a way, that you can't adjust the thing. So it can fall off my head no problem. So I gotta find a tailor for this... or hatter, which... I dunno how. It's not waterproof, barely water repellent, this is their typical old school, think... almost canvas material and it's... oh, it's bad, it's crude AF, everything looks very solid, but... I think you can easily go bald in this, it is so hot. The label doesn't say anything about washing or the materials. Just says БАРС Произведено в России.
There is no extra padding on the brim, it's kind of floppy, which is not necessarily a bad thing, but... definitely not worth 20$.
Yep, I'll stay with my USA made hats.
@@MidAtlanticTV please do, there has been a lot of hype the past few years about this Russian gear and it costs more than it's worth here in Europe, if you add the US shipping it's gonna tear through some wallets...
How is the rothco compared to the propper? which one has a deeper bucket? thanks
***** I couldnt find it in solid colors. I dont want camo. I have the rothco one and it was too "shallow". Felt like a yamaka was on my head. Which one has the deepest bucket?
***** Sweet ill check those out. Thanks a lot man!! and thanks for making this video!
Is the Atlanco by tru-spec USA made?
What was your thought on the Bernard Hat Company in comparison to the USMC?
Not call a baseball cap ... cover
Martina Arroyo a utility cap. but absolutely, a cover. an 8 point. wore them innthe navy.
Who cares?
Thank you. Why does this guy have utility covers anyway?
exactly
Who cares?
Most milsurples stuff has lose threads you just cut them
@Craig Shipp can i have one please?
Did this guy really call a Patrol Cap a baseball cap?
Patrol cap
You obviously take your hats way too serious
Did you really just get butt hurt about it?
THEFATALPROJECT yep in the usmc and navy they call it a cover the air force and army say patrol.
Did you really just call a Utility Cover a patrol cap?
For 4 bucks a piece
Isnt like 10 something
Trump MAGA boonie hat for me. Also called bucket hats.
you can spray them marine boonies with camp dry dude and they shed water like a ducks ass !
Don’t understand why need tilley
thats not a baseball hat, thats a patrol cap.
Fui Gebhardt 2 in the navy and usmc it is called a cover
делавой

Jose Alan Borbon cool!
B
"Bonnie Hats"??? At least spell it right my friend.
It's not a "Bonnie" hat. Nor a Mary hat. Jennifer hat. Etc...
Nothing to say
