This classic Military Cover's origins can be traced back to the U.S. military during the Vietnam War. It was specifically designed for soldiers deployed in the jungle environment. The wide brim provided shade from the intense sun, and the hat’s camouflage patterns helped soldiers blend into their surroundings. The name "Boonie" is derived from the abbreviated form of the slang term “Boondocks” which refers to remote locations like mountains or jungles.
