usmc. Boonie hat size?

[a1 (Babez)]

I got a usmc woodland digital boonie hat this christmas to finally complete my woodland loadout. I am very happy with it, only the brim of the hat looks awfully big. The hat size fits my head's circumfrence perfectly. The brim measures about 4-5 inches. Is this normal for a boonie hat to look that unbrella-ish? Or are you supposed to fold or crease the brim a certain way?

Heres a picture of the exact product I received. It even has the Marine Core insignia



I'd also like to wish everyone happy holidays this year!

They normally come that size, but a lot of the time they are cut down quite a bit because of the brim size. Figure out how small you want the brim to be and then get cutting.

or, if you don't want to cut it, scrunch up the brim a bunch and it can keep it from just flopping. Kinda keeps the whole thing wavy, that's what I do with mine.

Thats what I just did with mine. I creased it is six spots, giving it that wavy look. Thats what I thought would be the best idea, as i've seen other people do the same thing.
