Product Description

This standard baseball cap is one the most simple, least noticeable, and efficient personal defense items on the market. The secret of this hat is a pocket of unique impact material that is 100% the density of lead and which is sewn into the cap. Simply use the bill as the handle and the cap becomes an instant impact weapon to be used against a threat. Simple, fast, and effective! The cap includes Velcro adjustment to fit all sizes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Slap Hat, March 18, 2010

The Slap Hat is a very plain baseball cap, and as such it draws little attention to itself. If you are looking for a non-lethal weapon that doesn't look like a weapon, this is it. I've worn it almost daily since I got it, and nobody has noticed anything out of the ordinary about it. The weight took a bit of getting used to, but it is actually very comfortable. The impact material is not one solid piece, but rather it feels like a beanbag, so you won't feel like you have a lead block on the back of your head while wearing it. If you are concerned that such a small, non-solid weight won't be effective when you need it, I've actually numbed my own hand by striking my forearm with it, and it sounds like a mallet when struck against solid objects. I have noticed that the weight tends to force the bill into a slightly higher position than I'm accustomed to wearing. I normally wear my hat brims a bit low, but it's a minor inconvenience. My one major complaint is that I have no idea what the impact material is actually made of. It is supposed to have the same density as lead, which leads me to believe that it is something else, but knowing the one thing that it isn't doesn't really narrow down the remaining possibilities. The reason I would like to know is that I don't want this thing to set off the metal detector wands that some bouncers use at clubs, or to lose it at an airport. I doubt that it is a metal, but I would feel better knowing exactly what I'm wearing. That aside, I can say that I am confident that the product will perform well if I ever need it to.

1.0 out of 5 stars What a waste!, November 30, 2011

I got this item for my boss b/c he's big into self defense and I thought this would be a good boss's day gift. Not only is the product dissapointing, the shipping was terrible as well. First for the product. All it is, is a black cap with a small pocket sewn into the inside above where you would adjust the cap, filled with small BB type pellets. The 'pocket' isn't even double stitched or in any way reinforced. I would be afraid the BB's (or whatever they are) would come popping out with a solid thwack. Overall, I think the product is good as a gag gift but not for a serious one. Secondly, the shipping was horrible. I ordered my product on October 13th and it wasn't even shipped until October 28th, I received on November 4th. I would not do business with the seller or the manufacturer of this product again. :(

I bought 2 of these, 1 for me, 1 for a friend. They came today, I take 1 out, put it on and discovered that it's not going to fit!
Ok, I have a big head? Nope, doesn't fit my friend either. We both wear hats and know that 99% of the adjustable hats on the market fit us. These weren't even close, very disappointed. I'll be sending them back tomorrow.
