While the stitching and finishing details evoke the atmosphere of local production from that era, some areas exhibit slightly uneven stitching; therefore, it is reasonable to conclude that \u003cstrong data-start=\"375\" data-end=\"417\"\u003ethis piece was made from scrap fabric to resemble a locally procured boonie hat from wartime\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"433\" data-end=\"610\"\u003eThe use of authentic parts adds to its charm. Furthermore, a triangular badge of the South Vietnamese Army Rangers (Biệt Động Qu\u0026acirc;n \/ BDQ) is attached to the side. While this may have been added at a later date, it serves as a highly striking accent for this piece of Vietnam War-era gear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"612\" data-end=\"748\"\u003eThe appeal of locally made \u0026ldquo;Tiger Stripe\u0026rdquo; gear lies in its free-form production background\u0026mdash;unlike military-spec items\u0026mdash;and the unique character of each individual piece. This boonie hat is also a highly refined piece that allows you to fully appreciate that atmosphere.

The fabric shows signs of wear, but there is no significant damage.The South Vietnamese Ranger (BDQ) badge may have been added later. Additionally, since the stitching appears slightly irregular in some areas, we believe this piece was recreated using scrap fabric to replicate a locally made boonie hat from the wartime era. Overall, it has an excellent vintage feel and is a highly attractive addition to any Tiger Stripe collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1111\" data-end=\"1135\"\u003eAs this is a used item, returns are not accepted.
