Nomad Addict Registered: 05/04/02 Posts: 493 Loc: Just wandering around.	If one needed to use the line, how long would it take to un-do the hatband? Nomad _________________________ ...........From Nomad.........Been "on the road" since '97

hikermor Geezer in Chief Geezer Registered: 08/26/06 Posts: 7705 Loc: southern Cal	Nice job and a very distinctive hatband. What every hat of this type needs is a good chin strap so that it doesn't become airborne at the wrong time. Any thoughts on a spiffy way to add one to the headgear? _________________________ Geezer in Chief

kevingg Addict Registered: 10/21/05 Posts: 442 Loc: NH	Perhaps not visible in the pic; but this hat has a leather thong strap that comes through holes not visible under the band. I couldnt agree more; that has saved my hat on countless occaisions! _________________________ http://www.paracordist.com http://www.facebook.com/Paracordist http://www.youtube.com/user/kevingg2000 Follow me on Twitter @Paracordist
