The one, the only, the timeless Boonie. I’m in love with this one already. Next up I will try to water-proof it using some kind of wash-in protection. Apparently it gives a much better effect than being a lazy ass and just spraying the fabric. I had a cordura model to choose from as well but I opted for this cotton boonie as I really didn’t like the cut and feel of the former. Besides I couldn’t possibly acquire a boonie with camouflage fabric. Olive green is so much more tactful.

It’s a true classic.
