Tactical/Contractor Cap

I vaguely recall "hakuna matata" when we discussed this thread.

Vaguely? That whole phone call was so full of win! Well, right up until the end. :wall: Thank you for making me feel better about this side of the tracks. I need to call you more often because you deal with a hell of a lot more than me. :ROFLMAO:
 
There was a dude at a bar this weekend wearing one. Also seen a couple weeks ago was a guy wearing multicam cut-off shorts.


As I come across old woodland BDUs I cut them off and wear them around. No sense in letting them go to waste!

Those hats were all the rage in 2004! :D Kind of like 3 day assault packs, riggers belts, hiking boots, etc. You know, shit that some of us actually use for work and/or the weekends. Then they turned into a fashion statement for people who sit on their asses.

Now I do have a couple of old woodland BDU cut off shorts too. And I guess I'm guilty of the hiking boots. I picked up a pair of Danners Combat Hikers last year for back country camping in Land Between the Lakes.

I still wear a Tactical Tailor rigger belt for work. Been doing so for the last, well, since I have been a paramedic in P.A. Since 2000. They hold up well. I also wear one for regular clothes. I do have a cap with a flag also cause I like them. Edit to add. When I was at Bragg in the 90's, most of us wore the BDU belts that were off shoots of what the boys wear today. We were not "allowed" to wear them, had to wear those geigh ass black buckle belts. When I saw the rigger belts, I started with them and don't wear anything else. For the first year of work, I wore a regular garrison belt with a maltese cross buckle. Funny story about that I'll share soon with me, the belt and my Kim.

F.M.
 
I've been wearing a rigger's belt since before some of the members of this board were born... we used to make them from A-7-A straps we liberated from palletizing gear for drops... I still have a full A-7-A somewhere...
You were probably wearing them since before they had a USA.

Damn. What's up with everyone call xSFmed old this week?!? Bastards!! Ya'll need to knock that shit off!! :mad:

It's not like he's OLD. It's not like he fought in the Civil War, or carried a musket, or used those leggings that wrapped above the boot, or had a plume on his helmet. C'mon people!! :mad:

:-"

I'm not a fashion superstar, so I would wear whatever I have on at the time I decide to go to the bookstore.

Corfram shoes, thong, and a very thin coat of CLP... 8-)
 
Do you know how many times I have walked out the door in the morning and have been asked: "you are wearing that to work?" :D

This thread reminds me of an officer safety piece that was written awhile back by a retired copper from LASD about how guys go off duty then proceed to do everything they can to look like cops when they are off duty, even the UC guys, who worked their asses off to get out of uniform and into a UC gig.
