CondorMens TacticalTactical Cap

More durable than most.

Condor hats are the best bang for your buck and absolutely love them . I bought the olive drab to replace one I've had for about 6 years and has been through a lot of wear and tear . The only issue I had was the crown on the replacement even though low profile sat high on my head and pushed down on my ears . There is an easy fix to this that will give you a perfect fit and it isnt putting it in a washer and dryer , do not and i repeat do not do this ! It will only scuff the material on the edge of the brim and cause premature fraying. First you'll want to put a pan of water on untill it's simmering ( no need to boil ) transfer enough water into another pot to soak the hat brim up for about 5 to 10 minutes , I tranfered pots as to avoid any chance of a hot pan leaving marks on the hat . While the hats soaking preheat your oven to 300 degrees, get a cookie sheet and lay down a hand towel in it to once again avoid leaving marks on the hat , roll up a couple wash clothes to sit under the brim because the brim is going to flatten out due to the heat ( for this reason do not get the brim wet because when it flattens out there is a chance the material on the brim will wrinkle when you reform it ). Once your ready for the oven wring the hat out , undo the buckel, set it on the cookie sheet crown up ,place the rolled up wash clothes under the brim and bake the hat for 15 to 20 minutes at a time untill it's dry . When it's finished you can take it out and form the brim ,once its cooled down it will hold its shape . If the brim is left with wrinkles hand dab them with hot water and use a hot hair dryer and it will pull them out . I have a small head but after doing this it fit just like my old broken in one , perfectly !

I ordered the multi-cam version and was worried after reading some of the reviews posted. Someone even posted a photo of a cheap rip-off, dollar store looking hat they claimed is what they got in the mail. All I can say is when I ran to the mailbox (well more of an airborne shuffle) and came inside I was amazed because my hat looked pretty identical to the one shown in the image on Amazon. So I can only speak for myself, but when I put it on I didn't even have to adjust it, it fit great. It had the condor tag on it and the material it is made from is pretty high quality in my opinion. Many people might think it is crazy to get so excited over a hat, but I am a very picky hat guy. So to get a top quality, brand name hat for the amazing price offered is an awesome deal. To the people that gave this hat crappy reviews because of the Velcro all over it...ATTENTION, it is an operator hat, it is meant to have Velcro so you can put awesome patches or whatever on it. If you want a hat without Velcro then do not order an operator hat. I seen a hat the other week at a tactical shop and was very disappointed. It was some fake marine wannabe camo and rocked a $16 price tag. The flag patch for it was another $6, so I will definitely order from these guys again. I am waiting on my patches now. As far the buckle in the back it seems legit to me. If it starts to loosen as I wear it then I will pop a stitch in it...too easy. So in my opinion, this hat is a solid, if you want an awesome hat that you can pop Old Glory on the front, rock your name tape on the back, and maybe even throw an IR patch on top then this IS the one for you! It also shipped in 3 days!!! You have to overlook the negative reviews because apparently they did not even know what kind of hat they were ordering. I would recommend this hat to others and I will probably buy a few more. But as for now, I have an awesome new hat to drink my cold beer in!!!

All of the photos show a "hook and loop" strap adjustment. Otherwise known as it's brand name, Velcro. The hat I ordered came with a brass loop system instead. I am very happy with this and, in fact, prefer it. It will last much longer and won't lose it's adjustment through a wash. I'm only mentioning this in case you specifically want a Velcro/Hook-and-Loop adjustment system; I have no issue with it.I would it give it five stars, except I don't want to get too far ahead of myself, as I haven't had this hat for long. I will come back and edit this review if I notice any issues with it over the coming weeks or months.

Quality fabric. The kind that looks better after broken in. Velcro on the hat is a bit smaller than a 3x2 patch.

Perfect.

The comfort is great, the quality is above par. They went above my expectations so much I ended up ordering a black one then a tan one. My only problem with that is all the patches I bought to match them are turning me into a patchaholic.At work my hats are going to get dirty so I didn't want a solid colored one that the dirt and finger smudges would take away from the American flag patch on the front. The Multicam Arid fit the bill nicely , having a multi cam flag patch on front and In Good We Trust (also multi cam) on the back until my custom text ones arrive. I ended up ordering matching patches for the others and rubber American flag patches https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007Y7Y4I6/ref=cm_cd_asin_lnk for each as well. On the black the low profile coloring of the gray on black rubber flag make the hat look like very stealthy and menacing looking while not standing out and stating "look at me" like so many hats do. The tan hat with Coyote color rubber flag look like they were made for each other but the cloth ones still look great on the hat I got them for.If you want a high quality hat that fits like an old friend straight from the package that's about as comfortable as a cap can be in hot humid weather to cold rainy weather , that also is a great receptacle for your Velcro morale patches, this design and brand will be tough to beat.

Good hat fit good and good quality lasted a long time and kept its shape
