Like s regular hat. Boonie or Boonie's is slang for Boon Dock's down in the south, where there is lots of marsh and water.

Here's a pic of me where my favorite OD Green Boonie hat, I put camo netting in the grenade loops.

And all US Military contract companies do put their name on the tag. To tell if it's a true military piece of clothing, you need to find the DLA #

Such as the Cold Weather cap that I still have from the Army, it's made by Propper International. Which is a Clothing Company that makes unifroms for the US Military. the DLA # is something like this.

DLA100-84-C0564
Ya. My PASGT-V is made by Small Business Inc.

How come the color of your uniform is the woodland camo? I thought they have a digital pattern for the Army?

BTW, are there two types of Boonie hats? I observed that one type is the one with the flaps which are harden and the other type are those which are soft. In My country, the soft type of boonie hats are called sniper's hat.

Thats the Army and Marines. I am a cadet in the CAP/USAFAUX, and the Air Force is still using old style woodland, but that right there is my old airsoft uniform.
