MC-130H Combat Talon II Patch Hat
MC-130H Combat Talon II Patch Hat
The Talon Standard. The MC-130H Combat Talon II flew infiltration, exfiltration and resupply for special operations forces — terrain-following radar, blacked out, down in the weeds, in weather that kept everyone else on the ground. Twenty-four airframes, and the crews who flew them held themselves to a standard they named after the jet. This laser-engraved leatherette patch hat is for them.
The last Combat Talon II flew out of Hurlburt Field for the boneyard in April 2023. The airframe is gone; the people aren't.

Snapback
- Richardson 112 — Classic Trucker
- Mid-profile 5-panel, structured front, mesh back. The one everybody knows — holds its shape and sits square.
- Richardson 115 — Low Pro Trucker
- Same hat as the 112 with a shorter crown and flatter visor. Sits closer to the head.
- Richardson 169 — Cannon
- High-profile 7-panel, flat bill, laser-perforated performance polyester. No mesh — the whole cap breathes. Water resistant.
- Legacy OFA — Old Favorite Trucker
- Relaxed 6-panel, soft washed front, mesh back. Broken-in the day it arrives.
Adjustable strap
- Richardson 326 — Peached Twill Dad Hat
- Low-profile 6-panel, unstructured, soft peached cotton. No stiffener. The off-duty option.
- Legacy EZA — Relaxed Twill Dad Hat
- Unstructured washed twill, curved bill, sits low. The most casual cap on the board.
Fitted — no strap
- Flexfit 6277 — Cotton Blend Cap
- Structured 6-panel, mid-profile, Permacurv visor, elastic sweatband. The only cap here that is not one-size — it comes in S/M and L/XL, so pick your size with the hat. If you are between sizes, go up.
