More brown than tan, but a good hat.

Ordered this hat because I like the black multi-cam hat I bought earlier this year and wanted something in a tan/desert color.

Non-line shipped it quickly and it is both good quality and fits well. My only complaint, and it’s a small one, is that the color of the hat is definitely more brown than tan, even darker than the pictures (which I realize can vary from screen to screen). It’s still an excellent hat, I just have to decide if I’m keeping it or not (probably will).

Waxed hat

Hey guys , you know when you need a solid waxed hat and they are simply unwearable due to the stiffness and poor quality headband…
This hat is comfortable, nice comfortable head band and an attractive deep brown slightly waxed
Hat head…
Keep in mind it is short and close to the head which is perfect for shooting or wearing around the house.

Solid quality

It's a nice quality hat. My only problem with it is that it's a shallow hat and I have a big a** head with a decent amount of hair. So it doesn't fit like I'd like it to unfortunately. But I can't knock it down stars based off my own preferences and giant head, it's still a quality product.

Best Hat ever!

This hat is one of the best hats I ever had! It was so good I ordered another just 2 months later because I was afraid of when I did need another one it wouldn't be available. But 9 line is a great company so I wouldn't expect anything but best from them.

New Favorite Hat

I like the comfortable fit of this hat and the flexible bill. I’m more of a traditional baseball cap wearer and like how it fits on my head.

Good build but prefer different cut.

My Favorite hats are actually the Under Armor Iso-Chill Armourvent hats since they have more body, have a better shape, and maintains form better- I know this is personal preference.

The best parts of these waxed tan hats are its 3D mesh backing. These caps however are a bit low profile for my preference. The mesh breathes great, but the waxed front holds moisture inside just as well as it repels water outside.

I really appreciate that this cap is MADE in USA.

Overall, built well. I just ask for future models with more body and shape to it. Also needs to wick moisture better in front.

Dogs love hats too

Great Hat & The Flag Explanation...

Love this hat..and for those complaining about the US Flag being stitched on backward, the US Flag is always presented going forward; never retreating. If you're wearing it the other way, you are wrong.

FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

What is a Nine Line?

At its core, Nine Line is a give-back organization, striving to give back to the military and first responder communities that fought and died for our freedoms. 

From first responders and military non-profits to disaster relief initiatives, Nine Line is committed to the ongoing support of charitable initiatives that better the communities they serve.

Additionally, Nine Line remains committed to the notion that if we need it here, we should make it here.

Since its inception, Nine Line has remained committed to these three main tenets and will encourage others to ANSWER THE CALL in their own way.

What does your logo mean?

In the military, the term Nine Line is a distress call. It is often the difference between life and death and symbolizes the trust our servicemen and women have for one another.

As a company, we aim to offer our customers a platform to spend their hard-earned money on apparel that reflects their values and give them the chance to wear their beliefs on their sleeves.

As a lifestyle brand, Nine Line aims to reinvigorate a sense of patriotism and pride in our country that has eroded within our society.

Do I have to be active military or a veteran to wear your apparel?

Absolutely anyone can wear our apparel! 

This is a frequent misconception about our apparel and who it’s made for. 

Our goal is to bridge the gap between civilians and service members, whether they are military veterans, law enforcement, or first responders.

At Nine Line, we know that only united can the American people fight injustice and preserve our freedom and independence. We aim to be a voice for the people, a channel through which patriotic Americans can make themselves heard.

Nine Line Apparel represents the grit and commitment of all Patriotic Americans. Founded on the principles similar to other value based organizations, Nine Line aims to promote the issues faced by all those who have served their country, on both foreign and domestic soil.

Nine Line encourages a conversation between those who serve and those who support them.

Why is your flag backwards?

Our Army has the flag retreating portrayed on their uniform, implying that we are always moving forward into battle and never backwards.

The blue field of stars on the American Flag should always be in the highest position of honor.

When viewing the flag on a wall, the highest position of honor is the upper left when displayed horizontally, and at the top (upper left) when displayed vertically.

When displayed on a "moving object" like a person or vehicle, the highest position of honor is the front, and not the rear; so the field of blue should be displayed to the front.

Do you offer military discounts?

Yes! Through ID.me, we proudly offer 20% off all non-sale items for Military members, Medical Providers, Nurses, First Responders, and Teachers.

Once you click the ID.me icon in your order summary at checkout, you’ll be prompted to verify your eligibility through the secure ID.me platform.
