Abstract: An ear shield cap suitable for shading the wearer's eyes and ears from direct exposure to the rays of the sun which may be adjustable for a number of usual head sizes without undue affect on the shading function. The cap has a visor extending from the front of the crown, a pair of ear shields extending from the sides of the crown and the rear of the crown is free of any extension and structured to adust the cap to the head size of various wearers. The visor and ear shields are joined to provide a uniform transition from a visor to the ear shields. The cap may include a rear gore or panel in the crown of stretchable material to provide size adjustment or the rear of the crown may have a cutout which is bridged or spanned by a tab which may be an elastic band, a mating velcro fastener or a snap fastener adjustable to variable lengths. The cap may be of the baseball cap type construction made with materials and features permitting air circulation about the wearer's head.
