How many of you would be interested in an Equipped to Survive Hat? I talked with Doug today about having some made as part of my fund raising for ETS Foundation. 100% of the profits would go directly to ETS.

The hats would be Headsweats Podium embriodered by Headsweats with the Equipped to Survive logo. These hats rock, I have numerous Headsweat products and love 'em all!

So who is in?

Not intending to be nasty, but they're just baseball caps, aren't they?

I'd rather see the ETS logo on a hat with an all-around brim, with a wide braided band of 550 that I could slide a few things underneath. <img src="/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />

(What's with these ETS people?! They want everything to be just PERFECT!)

How about one of these?
Scottevest Tec Hat


The ETS logo, to be frank, could use a little bit of an overhaul, but I think I'd buy one of these with it just to help out the cause. I wonder if they do special runs, because one of those seem more geared toward the PSK carry folks here.

I don't think I'd want the ETS logo or any other logo on my hat. I'm not into logos. I'd be interested in a custom designed ETS hat that had interesting features, along the lines of the ETS Photon flashlight, and the ETS Benchmade and ETS Sebenza knives. Wide brim, paracord, etc. sounds good.

I couldn't get away with wearing that on a daily basis where I live - maybe going hiking or camping, though. Not a bad idea having a specially designed hat, but I'm pretty sure that would take far longer to get setup than having some production hats emblazoned with a custom logo. They could always shrink the logo to a small (1.5" wide or less) on the back and leave the front blank.... I see those all the time.

First let me say that I think fundraising for ETS is very cool Romania.

Unfortunately, on this item I'm not interested. I believe it's too small to fit my great big size 7 3/4 melon. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Still, if they are made, I might buy one to help the cause.

Sorry.

Ditto on the 7-3/4" head for me...and I can comfortably wear one.

The reason I choose Headsweats is they give a deal for the Janus Charity Challenge so that more profits can go to the beneficiary. Headsweats also makes a khaki and olive "all terrain" cap that are more subdued... but not quite as comfortable.

Ah, so there's no issue with size then... I'd order one in that case.
