  • Publication number: 20060107440
    Abstract: This invention is directed toward headwear with multiple bills capable of simultaneously shading the user's face and at least one more body part such as the ears or neck, and providing such protection without relying upon loose flaps of cloth to provide the shade. With the goal of providing both shade/rain protection for the user and promotional opportunities for commercial entities, the invention covers a variety of iterations with small and large bills covering the face, ears and neck of the user, where the bills can be flipped down or up. The invention can be made in a cap version, a one-piece version where the visor has two or more bills permanently attached, or a version capable of assembly where the bills can be attached in different iterations and detached at will, such that the bills can be removably attached to the visor or hat in downward-slanting or upward-slanting positions.
