Jungle Fever Dreams Collection Pt. III - “Charlie Don’t Surf”

Ripstop Stretch construction with “QILO” Embroidery. Inspired by issued boonie hats from the Vietnam War period.

Comes in two sizes: M & XL (for smaller/standard heads and larger heads respectively)

Tiger Stripe - the most iconic camo pattern of this period, and perhaps the most recognizable jungle camo of all time.

The Vietnamese Rangers & Special forces notably used this pattern in the war. When the United States began sending advisors to South Vietnam, USMAAG advisors attached to the ARVN were authorized to wear their Vietnamese unit's combat uniform with US insignia. Soon, many American special operations forces in the Vietnamese theater of operations wore the pattern, despite not always being attached to ARVN units.

In 1963, Marine Corps Advisors and from 1964, 5th Special Forces Group of the Green Berets contracted with Vietnamese and other Southeast Asian producers to make fatigues and other items such as boonie hats using tiger stripe fabric.

Tiger stripe was never an official US-issue item.
