Measured my dome, looked at size info and the note about these running small, so ordered the largest size, washed it once and the fit is spot on.

TG sent me the wrong color (ATACS-LE, I wanted AU) the first time. The return/replacement service was AMAZING! Got this on a Friday, called them Monday AM and had an email confirmation of my replacement shipping within 15 minutes of getting off the phone! They even drop-shipped via 2-day air direct from Propper. Couldn't be happier with that experience.

I'll be shopping here again for sure!

it is alittle smaller than the size they which give you. Which is a plus because my head is alittle less than 7 and it fit perfectly. aside that, it really broke up the shape and people were having a hard spotting me when i got neck gaiter with this.

I read all of the reviews and they are right.....get the next size up from what you usually wear. I wear a size 7 1/4 in Truspec & I ordered the size 7 1/2 in this model & it fits perfectly. So they obviously run a size short, but are still high quality.

The Customer Srevive dept. was VERY helpful when I called them to change to the next size up after reading all of the reviews. Great hat at a good price!

Propper is the brand I go to when I need a tough, crushable, all weather adventure hat. You cannot beat this hat for its utility and the value for the price. HEADS-UP... this hat and its poly/cotton and mil-spec cousins seem to run about a 1/2 inch small, ie. my hatband is 4-1/4 but I wear a 4-3/4 in this boonie.

This hat is great, I love it so much that everytime it rains I would take it out in replacement with my umbrella. I don't mind getting wet below my head so i'm set to go.
Do take the sizing warning into account before getting this hat. I saw the warnings from TacticalGear and the comments above and I end up ordering the perfect size. TacticalGear members will gladly help you out. (Just find them by phone or online chat at the bottom of the webpage)
Overall; hat is made to last, protects from the rain while keeping air circulation with the breathing holes and great for blocking the sun also. Great buy

Boonie hats aren't the coolest looking things, but they're handy. I love my hat in ACU and wanted to get a MultiCam one to go with my MultiCam system. This one is a little stiffer and more durable feeling than my ACU one.
Just like any boonie, you can roll it up, fold it up, wad it up, sleep on it, do whatever you want, and it won't get hurt. It's comfortable, and does it's job and thats why I love it.
There's not much else to say...it's a boonie hat. But as far as they go, it's perfect. Unless you want Outback snaps or something.

I took the advise posted from the web site in red letters that recommends to order one size larger and I did... it is too big.
Even with that, I will wear it because I don't like sending stuff back.
It is a good hat. Quality seems okay. Multicam pattern and color is spot on.

Love the Quality and Fit of all your products especially the 30" inseam. But, you photography is not high resolution even on my Apple Retina Display. i.e., you can not match the cam [shirt and pants] and I've bought 3 sets. Not a single match between shirt and pants.

I purchased this hat after reading all the reviews and as per the reccomendations I order mine one size larger. Typically a 7 1/8 size fits my head well so based on the reviews I ordered this hat in 7 1/4. It fits perfect and quality wise is exactly what I expect from Propper. Good overall construction, nice medium size brim, fine wire mesh air vents (4), chin strap with leather retention, excellent Multicam pattern (even, well distributed across the hat). Very happy with this hat and would purchase again.

I ordered this hat along with an ACU jacket and BDU pants in the same pattern. (they all match, see my other reviews). The material feels very sturdy and is comfortable. Be advised the sizing chart is VERY accurate. The jacket and pants I bought were bigger than I expected but the hat was opposite. I had my head measured (22in) and ordered the 21 7/8 thinking better tight than loose. It does fit a bit snug but should loosen up with normal use. Overall very happy with it and the other items purchased.
