Who makes a baseball styled cap with the following features...

velcro closure in back (not buckle which pulls my hair nor snaps wich break)
low profile (fits very close to head with no ecess bulge)
high tech fabrics (something that wicks moisture... not cotton)
Shooting related brand name (right now I have an Adidas hat that fits the above but want something shootig related to give as a gift to a shooter)

Post pics and links whenever possible.  Thanks.

DevL,
I bought something similar to your specs this summer at Dicks.  I'm not sure of the materials though.  As a bonus it has built in loops that attach to your shooting glasses.  These loops are on retractable line so you can remove your glasses, but still not lose them.  The hat is a tan color and I think cost $9.95.

Under Armor Tactical Baseball cap



Do you own the hat in question?  Does it contain zero cotton or is just the band where micro fiber is located?

The UA cap doesn't have cotton, AFAIK. Academy has the non-tactical variety if you wanna check them out before you buy. They're super-comfy.

The HSGI Multicam cap is pretty cool, but I don't know WTF it's made out of :
HSGI Multicam Ballcap

Killer Gear's "Killer cap" is sweet too. I don't have the foggiest of who might stock them though.

Hell, I circulate between a Wilderness Tactical ballcap (simple logo, simple cap), a Blackwater ballcap (original Black/Tan, got it as a present from a friend), and my old ratty PRCA ballcap that I pulled the ball off of. All are cotton though, and aren't really "Tactical"...

Another interesting hat I recently saw is the Lightfighter Warrior Hat.



I believe it about $20 at www.lightfighter.com.  

It looks pretty good, I may need to get one of these...

The Killer Gear hat that Capn_Crunch mentioned can be found at www.triadtactical.com.

Here's a pic of the Killer Gear hat.



These hats don't all meet your requirements but they may be a worth a look if you don't find anything else.

Nike Tailwind Dri-fit hat.

I have one, works great.  Not a shooting related brand though.  Personally, I prefer Nike Drifit to Under Armor.

I have been very pleased with my Killer Gear hat.


Matt makes nothing that isn't top of the line.

My Red Sox hat works fine for me.

The ball caps incorporating the "Flex-Fit" elastic have been some of my favorites:

why not a plain BDU patrol cap. I use them and the bill is long enough to stop a falling shell from getting behind my glasses.
Get one in ACU and you will be up to date with the times!

Are these cotton caps?  I specifically asked about NON cottoncaps.  Not interested in cotton caps at all.  These caps all look like they are cotton.  Was not aware of Sig, Blackwater or ACU caps in materials other than advanced sythetics NON cotton.
