The Riverine Squadron Two Heritage Dad Hat exists because the originals really don’t anymore.

Riverine Squadron Two hasn’t existed since 2012, and the hats that were issued to the Black Berets have become the kind of thing you hang onto because you can’t simply replace them. I still have mine — faded, weathered, overstretched, and absolutely worn out — but I’ve never been able to bring myself to get rid of it.

So this is a way to bring that piece of the squadron back.

A simple, low-profile dad hat with the Riverine Squadron Two shield front and center. No Flexfit. No oversized tactical look. Just the old crest, on the kind of hat many of us would actually wear now.

And this one isn’t about making money. There’s no profit built into it — just the cost to produce the hat. It’s for the Black Berets who still have their old one, the ones who lost theirs somewhere along the way, and anyone who wants to keep a small piece of Riverine Squadron Two alive.

Riverine Squadron Two. 2006–2012. Some things are worth keeping.
