They keep the weather off your head and the sun out of your eyes

Because boonie mean boner you dumbass

The rough and uneven edges and shape help break up your outline more than a solid, round helmet will.
Also it keeps shade on your face and neck.

gee anon, I wonder why snipers use the most practical hat ever created

helmets are uncomfortable, patrol caps don't protect your ears or back of your head from Mr. Sun, and boonies are one size fits all
