    Exclamation Hats For Trade!!!

    I love hats...and I am very big collector of unique and hard to find hats. I have to go back to the pentagon as soon as I get back to work after my shoulder heals up and I can get some very unique and special hats. These are for trade only, I will not sell them!

    I am willing to trade brand new with tags department of defense hats purchased in the pentagon to anyone who is willing to trade me something unique, I can get an unlimited number of hats, so there is no limit. I am interested in hats with your company, team, division, or department name. Unique military or police hats (unrestricted only) are among my favorites, I know we have a few guys in the LEO or military sectors here *hint, hint*.

    You guys have a few weeks to decide. Here are some photos of the hats, these are the only official issue DOD hats. They are worn by Pentagon employees and contractors and they come in black only. The hats can only be purchased through the pentagon store (fort America). They have a fully adjustable velcro strap which I find very comfortable and more durable than a traditional plastic adjustable strap

    I can also get Border patrol hats, I am not sure if they are official issue, but they are fun to wear in areas with a lot of illegal immigrants. Illegals may not be able to speak english, but they seem to be able to read it!! FYI, the Border Patrol hats are not unique to the pentagon, I have seen them on eBay as well, but as a contractor I have access to DOD, Military, SOCOM and LEO hats sold in the pentagon, which includes the BP hats.

    I reserve the right to decline a trade request if the hat doesnt appeal to me, so please dont take it personally if I say no thanks. I cant trade for a hat that I wouldnt wear because I don't have the enough storage space, so I cant afford to keep hats that I know I wont ever wear. My tastes are very broad, so even if you have doubts that I will like the description or picture of the hat, PLEASE ask me anyway!!!

    UPDATE:
    I realized that there are two different DOD hats you could choose from depending on what you wanted. The first hat is official DOD issue and has a heat seal patch on it. I wear mine almost every day and they last about 2 years before I have to get a new one because the heat seal patches tend to partially come off after a while, but can generally be hot glued or ironed back on with a standard iron. I guess you could sew them on too, which would make them last forever if you had the desire. The second hat is embroidered and is only made by the company that provides them to the pentagon, BUT I have seen copies of these hats, and they dont look as official in my opinion, nor are they official issue, but a lot of the suits at the pentagon prefer these to the patch hats. By the way, as aweful as it is, these hats are NOT made in the USA, so dont be shocked when you see the official DOD hat is made in VIETNAM!!!! I will include a copy of the receipt from the pentagon so you know I didnt buy these from some street dealer, but like I said, the patch hats you just cannot find anywhere outside the pentagon (surprisingly). I added a photo of the embroidered hat below

    BTW, due to my increased recovery time because of the extra work that had to be done on my shoulder, it will be around 3 weeks before I get the hats rather than 2.
