Material
Made from a high-quality 50/50 polyester-cotton blended fabric specially developed for the Pitchfork product line, the modern re-interpretation of the classic boonie jungle hat will become your trusted companion in moderate and warm environments. The fabric has a technologically advanced "near infrared" (nIR) treatment to reduce the visual signature when viewed through a modern military night vision device.
Design
While maintaining the classic Soldier 95 boonie hat shape of the British armed forces, the crown is kept flat for a low profile. A mesh fabric is used all around the hat, which enables maximum air circulation. On the upper area a 50 x 50mm loop surface can be found to attach an IR reflective patch. Around the hat we used the same nylon-cotton material instead of stiff webbing ensuring an all-around low IR signature. Hidden underneath the circumference a shock cord is sewn in that allows infinitely variable size adjustment for a perfect fit, keeping the selected size by a cord stopper in the back. The brim is kept extremely narrow and slopes down at a steep angle. All other features found on standard models like the chin strap or a neck cover have been left away. Functionality thru simplicity.
The Pitchfork Boonie Hat is available in S/M (55-58 cm) and L/XL (59-62 cm).
