    Good point. That's something I didn't consider. On my monitor it's appearing grey in color. Would it be available in OD or Khaki? Is it possible to change the font to lower case for the word "CARBINE"? Or is there a reason you chose the all caps? How 'bout "M4carbine"?

    Looks good. I think I'd buy one of those.

    Is the color a faded or "distressed" green? It looks a bit gray, but that's probably my crappy monitor here at work. Do you plan to have other colors available?

    I would prefer no button on top, but I can remove that myself in about a minute. I've successfully de-buttoned several hats and have never had one fall apart. I agree that the velcro adjustment is the way the go. I hate those buckles.

    Let me know when they're available.

    The color of the hats are kind of like grey meets OD. It is kind of a unique color.

    If you look at how the forum name is spelled, we just followed that style.

    Yes, it is a kind of has a "weathered" look to it. No plans to do other colors currently, but if these sell well, we might consider it.

    Fair enough. I was thinking of the way it was advertised in SWAT magazine: "www.M4Carbine.NET" and liked the font that way because it somehow caught my eye while thumbing through that rag

    Both ways looks good, but on the hat the big and bold letters kind of standard out and look well positioned on the front IMHO.


    Hat's should retail for about $15.

    I'm another dude with a big noggin. I think I and dkc4u are wondering if the hat will be deep enough and large enough around so that we aren't relying on the very ends of the velcro straps to stay together and then the hat doesn't sit well on the head. Could you measure around the circumference with the velcro placed as you have it pictured? My fitted hat size is a New Era 7 5/8. Sorry for the bother but really want to represent well. I would pay more for a flex fit in XL.

    I put the velcro towards the end and measured the inside of the hat. It will fit a head diameter of at least 24.5 inches.
