“Some of these observations about their armor and camouflage gave me an idea for reinforced, neutral-colored headgear.”— Moira Brown referring to mirelurks.

The shady hat is a unique, fedora-style pre-War hat in Fallout 3.

Location

The shady hat can be obtained as a reward for doing the mirelurk observation quest as part of Moira Brown's "The Wasteland Survival Guide" missions. Place Moira's observer unit inside a nest deep in the Anchorage Memorial. To get it the Lone Wanderer must place an observer unit in a mirelurk egg nest without killing any of the mirelurks in the area.

Notes

The shady hat can only be repaired with merchants.

Bugs
