A Timeless Classic, Evolved

It now incorporates cutting-edge materials, enhanced cooling technologies, and unlocks new customization options. This hat is engineered to meet the demands of tomorrow’s missions, offering unparalleled comfort, protection, and adaptability for today’s tactical professionals.

Engineered For Extreme Heat

Overheating and discomfort can undermine your focus, but the Striker Gen.3 Boonie Hat keeps you cool and mission-ready with superior breathability. Made from advanced NyCo Extreme ripstop fabric, it delivers exceptional tear resistance, fast-drying performance, and reliable protection for high-intensity activities in extreme heat, all while meeting stringent No-Melt/No-Drip requirements.

Enhanced Ventilation

Strategically placed mesh openings at the front and rear, combined with breathable fabrics, allow cool air to circulate while expelling heat. The hat's moisture-wicking properties quickly eliminate sweat, keeping you dry, comfortable, and focused when it matters most.

Air/Pac Cooling Technology 

Excessive heat and sweat can compromise your focus in the field. The air/pac® system integrated into the hat enhances airflow and wicks away moisture, ensuring you stay cool and dry even in the most intense conditions.

Protection Against Direct Sun

Direct sun exposure can impair your focus and slow your reaction times. The Striker Gen.3 Boonie Hat features the air/pac® padding system, creating a barrier that protects your head from direct heat, allowing you to stay cool, comfortable, and mission ready.

Airflow Power-up

The air/pac® insert works alongside the ventilation openings to enhance airflow, allowing heat to escape and cool air to circulate. This keeps the temperature regulated, ensuring you stay focused and comfortable, even in the most extreme conditions.

Active Dry Control 

The Striker Gen.3 Boonie Hat’s air/pac® system actively wicks away moisture, preventing buildup and keeping you cool, dry, and comfortable throughout the day.

Make it your Own

Overheating and discomfort can disrupt your performance and focus. The Striker Gen.3 Boonie Hat keeps you cool and ready for action with unbeatable breathability and customizable camouflage, helping you stay sharp and blend into your environment whether you're on the range or deep in the field.

Flexible Brim

The front and back of the brim are reinforced with an extended wire, giving you greater flexibility to adjust it just right for optimal shading of your eyes and neck.

3-Level Cord Adjustment 

The adjustable drawcord guarantees a secure fit, keeping the boonie hat locked in place, even in strong winds or during intense action. Plus, with three fit levels to choose from, you can easily dial in the perfect fit for any situation.

Adapts To Surrounding 

For added camouflage, you can attach foliage around and on top of the boonie, allowing you to blend seamlessly into your surroundings and stay concealed when needed. This feature makes the Striker Gen.3 Boonie Hat perfect for stealth operations in varied environments.

FAQ'S

What are the key differences between the Striker Gen. 2 and Striker Gen. 3 Boonie Hat? 

The Striker Gen.3 Boonie Hat brings several key upgrades over the Gen.2 model. It features a redesigned brim with a longer wire and improved shape for enhanced sun protection. The Velcro patches have been updated with new shapes, while the vent mesh has been repositioned for optimal airflow. Additionally, the Gen.3 now includes an air/pac® insert, ensuring your head stays cool even in the hottest conditions.

Is the air/pac® insert compatible with the previous version of the Boonie Hat?

No, the air/pac® insert is not compatible with the previous version. The earlier model lacks a dedicated pocket for the insert, and the Striker Gen.3 Boonie Hat has been slightly redesigned for a more precise fit, making the insert specific to this generation. 

What is the purpose of the brim?

The brim is designed to offer all-angle sun protection, providing maximum coverage. It can also be shaped into curves, which is crucial for blending into natural environments. Since flat surfaces are rare in nature, curved shapes help enhance camouflage, making the hat more effective in tactical settings.
