Abstract: The present invention relates generally to adjustable headwear in the form of caps or visors which are adjustable to fit wearers with a range of head sizes. In particular, the cap or visor is constructed of a uni-axially stretchable material with a sweatband around the inside periphery of the cap or visor constructed of a bi-axially stretchable material. Attached to the front of the headwear is a bill, a rigid structure that shields the wearer's eyes and is arched in the preferred embodiment.

Abstract: An economical to manufacture and easy to assemble billed hat constructed from a sheet of material having a base portion with a left and right headband portion and a central cap portion extending therefrom is disclosed. The distal ends of the left and right headband portions include an adjustable fastener to detachably secure these portions together to form an adjustable headband. The central cap portion includes at least one fastener to detachably and adjustably secure the cap portion to the headband, thereby defining an adjustable cap of the hat. In preferred embodiments, the base portion has a bill and the hat forms a baseball hat, and the hat is reversible such that a wearer may select one of two different surface indicia to display thereon.

Abstract: A baseball type cap comprising a hemispherical shell defining an opening for reception of a head of a wearer, and a size adjustment mechanism mounted to the shell for infinitely adjusting a size of the cap. The size adjustment mechanism includes a flexible drawstring slidably disposed within a channel formed along a peripheral edge of the shell, and a shiftable clamping slide adjustably mounted to the drawstring. A middle portion of the drawstring extends from the channel through a pair of holes therein and passes beneath a retaining loop formed on an outer peripheral surface of the cap shell, forming a closed adjusting loop. The clamping slide is operably attached to the adjusting loop for controlling the size of the adjusting loop, thus operatively adjusting an effective perimeter of the peripheral edge of the cap shell that defines a size of the headwear.

Abstract: Headgear are disclosed, having a body and a strap which is removable from the body so as to be replaceable and interchangeable. Each of the straps may have a logo or other indicia displayed thereon. By interchanging straps with varying indicia, the user can change the decorative appearance of the headgear. In addition to its decorative function, the strap may be elastic and when attached to the body proximate opposed ends of a headband of the headgear such that the elastic nature of the strap will allow the headgear to expand or contract to conform to the head size of a wearer. The strap has opposed ends and is removably connected to the body by attachment means which may comprise hook assemblies permanently connected to the opposed ends of the strap, the hook assemblies each engaging respective grommets set into the body.

Abstract: Invention provides a temperature regulating cap for heating or cooling the head of the user having a removable and replaceable heating or cooling insert with a releasable connector for fastening the insert to the cap in which the insert has two portions including a first portion in contact with the top of the user's head for heating or cooling the head and a second portion that depends downwardly from the first portion and is located generally in the forehead region of the person's head to cool the forehead and to absorb perspiration. The insert can be removed and replaced when required for washing or for immersion in water to absorb moisture which is then retained in the insert for the purpose of providing evaporative cooling.

Abstract: A size adjustable hat or cap has a generally round headpiece which covers a portion of the wearer's head, and a rear opening to allow the headpiece to be adjusted to fit the wearer's head. A decorative adjustment mechanism connected to the headpiece allows the rear opening to adjust the headpiece to fit the wearer's head. The headpiece adjustment is achieved with a sizing tie having two segments attached to lower edge of the headpiece. The sizing tie extends rearwardly of the headpiece and is adjusted by a tie lock which moves along the sizing tie to adjust the fit of the headpiece upon a wearer's head by adjusting the rear opening. The sizing tie is provided with a visually pleasing decorative design on is outside surface to establish the dual utilitarian and decorative role of the tie.

Abstract: A headwear assembly that includes a reversible crown, shaped to fit the head of a wearer with a prong buckle, fabric with hook and loop fasteners, fabric ties, plastic, one-size-fits-all or other size adjustment mechanisms, having first and second opposing major surfaces and a detachable and reversible single visor with first and second opposing major surfaces. A detachable and reversible dual visor with first and second opposing major surfaces can also be attached to the reversible crown. The reversible crown includes cooperating attachment members located on the inside non-focal surfaces of the first and second major opposing surfaces, providing the base for attaching, detaching and reattaching the removable and reversible single or dual visor. The detachable and reversible single visor has first and second major opposing surfaces along with cooperating attachment members to used to attach, detach and reattach itself to the reversible crown.

Abstract: The core of the modular cap assembly of the present invention consists of two selectively detachable elements, a visor component having a forehead or billboard portion made of velcro hook-adhering fabric, and a crown component with a permanent fold-down sweatband that allows it to be worn as a brimless cap or “beanie” when separated from the visor. These two selectively detachable elements can be worn assembled as a cap, or each one can be worn separately as a distinct piece of headwear. The selectively detachable crown can be made in any silhouette, in any materia, and with any back closure known in the art of making caps, visors, and brimless caps of “beanies”. In addition, one of more of the panels of the selectively detachable crown can be made of velcro hook-engaging material, allowing the selective display of detachable insignias and detachable pockets with velcro loop-engaging material permanently affixed on back of them.

Abstract: A adjustable headwear for a child for allowing the child to continue to wear the hat or bonnet as the child grows. The adjustable headwear for a child includes a crown member having a bottom edge and a top portion and being split through and from the bottom edge to a middle of the top portion thus forming a first end portion having a longitudinal edge and also forming a second end portion having a longitudinal edge, and also includes a bill member which is sewn to and extends from the crown member, and further includes a plurality of hook and loop fasteners which are sewn upon the exterior of the crown member along the longitudinal edge of the first end portion and which are also sewn on the underside of the crown member upon the second end portion. The second end portion is adjustably attached upon the first end portion to accommodate different head sizes of children wearing the adjustable headwear.
