Tactical Gear Junkie Operator Hat - OD Green

OD Green Operator Hat

The Tactical Gear Junkie Operator Hat is a ball cap built for wearing patches. A large hook-and-loop panel on the front lets you put on a unit patch, flag, name tape or morale patch and swap it whenever you like. It comes in OD green (olive drab, the classic US military field green), so it matches most surplus and tactical kit. It works at the range, in the field and as an everyday cap.

Features

• Front Loop Patch Panel — A wide panel of loop material, the soft side of hook-and-loop fastening, takes any hook-backed patch and holds it until you peel it off.
• Second Loop Panel On Crown — A smaller loop strip at the top of the crown gives you a second spot for a small patch or IR marker.
• Ripstop Fabric — The shell is woven with a reinforcing grid, visible as small squares in the fabric, so a snag or small tear cannot run across the panel.
• Cotton And Polyester Blend — Cotton keeps it comfortable against the skin, and polyester adds strength and helps it hold its shape and color.
• Stitched Ventilation Eyelets — Small sewn eyelets in the crown panels let heat escape on warm days.
• Pre-Curved Brim — The brim comes curved and carries several rows of stitching that help it keep its shape and shade your eyes.
• Low-Profile Paneled Crown — Sewn panels with reinforced seams give a classic ball cap shape that sits close to the head and fits under ear protection.
• OD Green Colorway — Solid olive drab, with the patch panels dyed to match, so the cap blends with most military and outdoor gear.

Fabric And Build

Tactical Gear Junkie makes this cap from cotton and polyester ripstop, the same weave used in a lot of modern field uniforms. The loop panels are sewn directly onto the crown, and the brim and seams are top-stitched, so the cap holds up to being pulled on and off and stuffed in a bag. Patches are sold separately, so you can set it up however you want.
