About this file

This document contains the specifications for the Illinois State Police's winter uniform hat style. The hat is a Montana Peak style with four dents in the crown, made of winter felt material. The hat must have eyelets on the sides and back, a sweatband lined with an oil silk insert, and eyelets to accommodate a chin strap. The hat sizes must be determined by the sweatband size, with the hat itself being one size larger. The vendor is required to submit 10 pre-production hats for approval prior to the contract being finalized. Delivery of the hats is required within 45-60 days after contract award.

The related state and local contract opportunity is a three-year renewal option with Bob Barker for quartermaster winter uniform hats, in place from 1/24/24 - 1/23/27. This is not a new solicitation, but rather a notice of the renewal of an existing contract.

Illinois State Police Winter Uniform Hat

• Style: Montana Peak with four (4) dents in the crown

• Material: Winter Felt

• Punching on Side Crowns: Eyelet in the front of the hat should be located so that the Medallion appears flush with the top of the hat band, 2 ¼” above the brim. One metal eyelet 2 ¾” centered above the brim in the center of each side of the crown and one in the back of the hat.

• Sweatband: Hat must have a head culture sweatband lined with oil silk insert; the oil strip is to be sewn into band to prevent perspiration from coming through.

• Eyelets: Hat is to have one eyelet on each side, to accommodate a chin strap, of the brim at the center of the crown, 1/8” away from crown. The opening is to be 3/16” in width and 5/8” in length.

• Sizing: There should be enough sizing in each hat to remain throughout the life of the hat. Hat sizes are to be determined by sweatband size. The hat itself shall be one size larger than the sweatband to make it easier to properly fit the trooper. In the event that our normal stock sizes, which include the regular long oval, extra-long oval and wide oval styles, do not fit a trooper’s head properly, it will be the vendor’s responsibility to make whatever necessary measurements that are needed and manufacture those hats to conform perfectly to the trooper’s head. Hat size will be marked in the back under the sweatband as well as another marking outside of the sweatband. Each size marker must indicate the size and if the oval is regular, long oval, extra-long oval or wide oval.

• Delivery: Each hat must be delivered in individual boxes with the size clearly marked on the outside of the box. All size markings on the hat box must include whether the hat is a regular, long oval, extra-long oval or wide oval. In addition to all other I.D. tags, each hat shall be tagged with a removable inventory control type ticket stating size and regular, long oval, extra-long oval or wide oval. Suggested size of the ticket is: 2” long x 1 ½” wide. Tickets are to be placed on the outside of the individual hat box.

• After issuance of contract, vendor is required to submit a total of ten (10) pre-production uniform winter hats, in various sizes as requested by the ISP, to determine that all measurements are accurate depending upon the size; and further, that the quality of workmanship in the construction of the hat is satisfactory. Based upon the acceptance of the pre-production uniform hat, the contract will be put into place for purchasing.

• Delivery is required within 45 – 60 days ARO.
