Steuben Jerry Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 (edited) Stopped at the local Wally World for a few things on the way home last night. Always stroll through the hunting and fishing section. Saw "boonie" hats. Tried one on, found a mirror and said "f-that". Sticking with ball caps!

BizCT Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 What kind of hat is this called? I used to wear this all the time back in the day. It has flaps that drop down over ears in the winter time.
