The Ranger hat is a hat in Fallout: New Vegas. In appearance, it is a khaki-colored campaign hat with the trademark badge of the New California Republic Rangers.
Characteristics[]
A campaign cover, also known as a "lemon squeezer" that is standard-issue to NCR patrol rangers. It is made of a stiff light khaki material and sports a polished brass ranger cap badge, worn together as part of a uniform alongside handmade combat armor.
The ranger hat has no weight, no DT, and no value, but it can be repaired. If one chooses to take the Jury Rigging perk, the ranger hat can be used to repair light helmets and headgear. Additionally, the ranger hat can be used to repair any light armor.
Variants[]
Ranger brown hat[]
A brown Ranger hat. It is bent and does not have the New California Republic insignia. It is worth 30 caps, unlike the ranger hat. Can be repaired with ranger hats and all cowboy hats.
Locations[]
- Ranger Jackson at the Mojave Outpost wears one.
- One is always worn by the unnamed NCR ranger who presents the Courier with the NCR emergency radio.
Ranger grey hat[]

Ranger tan hat[]

Notes[]
With the Jury Rigging perk, this item can be repaired with an advanced radiation suit, all-purpose science suit, Followers lab coat, Roving trader outfit (not roving trader hat), and possibly other high value or unique items. It can also be used to repair those same higher value items with this perk taken.
Bugs[]
- If a Ranger grey hat is put on Boone, the colors will be mixed up. [verified]
- Fix: Run around a little and the color will be as normal.
- Some characters hair like Ranger Ghost's will clip through the hats. [verified]
