This is another excellent (and we do mean excellent) SADF surplus item. We’ve seen a lot of military hats come through our warehouse, but nothing is quite like the “bush” hat. Snap either side of the brim up for aiming or casting, or snap both up for over-ear protection or comms use. This is the best “recce”-style cap we’ve ever had the pleasure of wearing for any period of time (and boy, have we enjoyed them). Whether you're fishing, hiking, or LARPing, this durable bush hat is up for anything.

The cut of the bush hat is similar to the boonie we all know and love, but the brim is stiff, downward sloping, and slightly oval. This shape offers the unique benefit of thoroughly breaking up the silhouette of the wearer while noticeably increasing the level of sun protection afforded to the neck and face. The thicker, angled brim also handles rain and foul weather without bending or blowing away, and it is easily stowed with snaps on the sides of the hat.

As with all SADF Nutria kit, the color will lighten and weather with use, increasing its ability to blend with multiple environments.

Comfy hat

Love a hat that fits and keeps the sun off my skin. It was new condition as far as I could tell.

Breddy Good

It's taken me much too long to start utilising hats. But this was a good start. Fits nicely.

The buttons are a nice touch, but one of them just came off after fidgeting with it. So maybe a bit more fragile than I'd like, but that's partially the fault of me fidgeting.

It's a good hat.

Cool hat

Has a nice wide brim, and the ability to clip it makes you go from certified South African freedom fighter to verified Outback Bush Wookie. Never has a single piece of clothing enabled me to swap my citizenship status so quickly.

Wonderful gear.

Don't worry I'm still wearing my father's hat.

But keep it up KS.

Solid boonie

Good all around hat, the shade it provides works really nice, snap buttons are robust. Keep in mind, this may run ever so slightly smaller than you may account for. Pick a size bigger. The difference may be small, but you'll def feel it in your head.
