Product Overview
Insect-heavy weather does not always call for a separate head net. The Rothco Boonie Hat With Mosquito Netting combines a brimmed outdoor hat with netting you can lower when bugs become a nuisance or pull up into the hat when it is no longer needed. That flexibility makes it useful for fishing by the water, spending time around camp, or moving through wooded airsoft fields.
Netting when you need it
The mosquito netting is made from 100% polyester and gives you an additional barrier against insects while outdoors. Being able to pull it up into the hat is especially convenient when conditions change: you can use the boonie as everyday outdoor headwear, then bring the netting down without reaching for a separate accessory. For activities that involve sitting or standing in one place, such as fishing or watching a game from the sidelines, that ready access is particularly useful.
Airflow for warm days outdoors
The hat uses a lightweight, breathable cotton/polyester blend, with four screened side vents to help air circulate. The fabric and ventilation work together to make warm-weather wear more comfortable, while the brim provides shade from the sun. It is a straightforward combination for camping, hunting, yard work, and other activities where you spend extended time outside.
An adjustable chin strap helps keep the hat secure when the wind picks up or you are moving around. You can adjust the strap to suit how you wear it, rather than relying on the hat's fit alone to hold it in place.
- Hat material: Cotton/polyester blend.
- Mosquito netting: 100% polyester; wears down or pulls up into the hat.
- Ventilation: Four screened side vents.
- Retention: Adjustable chin strap.
Choose the appropriate head size for the hat itself; the chin strap adjusts retention, not the hat's circumference. For an airsoft loadout, consider how you plan to wear the netting alongside your other headwear and required eye and face protection.
