More shade: The new UF PRO Striker Gen. 2 Boonie is here

06/11/2018By Redaktion
Whether in action or under the bright sun, it is crucial to protect your eyes and face. Boonie hats, also known as brimmed hats, have become an essential piece of clothing for special forces, infantry, commando units, and military and tactical enthusiasts.
UF PRO®, developer and manufacturer of high-quality tactical apparel for police and military special forces worldwide, is kicking off summer 2018 with the brand new Striker Gen.2 Boonie Hat, which provides sun protection, allows air circulation, and helps the wearer blend in with their surroundings with camouflage patterns.
The new Striker Gen.2 Boonie Hat can be folded very small if needed (e.g., to be stored in a pocket) and provides excellent 360-degree sun protection. Made of a lightweight but durable 35% polyester, 65% cotton ripstop fabric in Flecktarn; 50% nylon, 50% cotton ripstop in PenCott™ GreenZone and MultiCam®; and 67% polyester, 33% cotton ripstop in Greybrown, SloCam, it features a mesh textile sweatband to generate maximum air circulation, allowing the wearer to keep a cool head.
To further lower the temperature when the heat index rises, the UF PRO® Striker Gen.2 Boonie features two mesh ventilation openings at the front and back, allowing even more air circulation. The adjustable Paracord chin strap ensures a secure fit and the intuitive secure closure at the back of the head (the cord runs through the circumferential brim) allows for adjusting the hat's circumference.
The Striker Gen.2 Boonie Hat from UF PRO® has a wide brim that can be shaped to fit perfectly on any head, allowing you to customize it as desired. The hatband offers two rows of loops for threading foliage for natural camouflage to break up the wearer's outline and help them integrate into their environment.
Never enough pockets, UF PRO® has integrated a smart mesh pocket on the inside of the hat for all essential documents (e.g., a thin, flat object like an ID or cards for your mission) and three Velcro pads for attaching ID patches.
"We listened to our customers and incorporated all their wishes into the development process. This is how we came up with this new design: a hat that is easy to wear, provides protection against harmful sun rays, and also camouflages well. The brim also offers good protection against rain," explains Armin Wagner, Head of UF PRO® Product Development. Get all the information about the Striker Gen.2 Boonie Hat HERE.
