Headgear provides a quick and easy way for law enforcement officers to adapt to changing environmental conditions. Our selection includes a wide variety of designs, from traditional watch caps to high-coverage fire-resistant protective gear. It features products from many trusted police equipment manufacturers, including Under Armour, Blackhawk and Tru-Spec.
Most headgear falls into two traditional categories: baseball caps and watch caps. Watch caps are designed to keep your head warm in cold conditions, and are usually made long enough to cover the ears.. Traditionally made from from wool, many are now constructed from insulated synthetics such as microfleece. The textured interior traps warm air close to the skin to provide a comfortable barrier against the cold. Some lighter designs fit comfortably under a helmet to combine impact and cold protection. Baseball caps are useful on sunny days, thanks to the large visor that cuts out glare for increased visibility. Law enforcement versions are usually made from durable fabrics such as cotton-blend twill. The large front panel can be embroidered with departmental logos, and some designs even feature a loop panel in the front for attaching patches.
This section also includes more specialized headwear. Balaclavas provide much higher coverage than hats, making them very useful in the coldest conditions. The coverage also makes them a natural choice for flame protection when made from a fire-resistant material such as Nomex. Bandanas and shemaghs can be worn in a wide variety of different ways and can also fulfil a range of survival tasks. They are particularly useful in desert conditions, keeping out the sun, wind and sand.
