Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates generally to hats and, more particularly, to hats that include a visor.
- 2. Description of the Prior Art
- Hats that have a visor are well known in the art. Such hats may also be referred to as caps. A well known such cap is a baseball cap. With such a cap, the visor projects from the cap in a visor projection direction.
- Caps very often include some form of ornamentation. Such ornamentation may be in the form of a team emblem. Such ornamentation is most commonly placed on the front of the cap, above the visor. It is also known that cap ornamentation may also be placed at the rear of the cap. Known cap ornamentation is relatively flat. That is, known cap ornamentation is substantially two dimensional.
- With the present invention, a number of improvements over conventional caps are provided. Rather than providing merely two dimensional ornamentation, the present invention provides three dimensional ornamentation.
- Moreover, with the present invention, the three dimensional ornamentation that is provided is simulative of articles or objects.
- Caps with visors are most often worn in one of two ways. In the first way, the visor is located at the front of the wearer's head and faces in the same direction as the face of the wearer. In the second way, the visor is located at the rear of the wearer's head and faces in a direction opposite to the face of the wearer. The second way of wearing the cap is often the way a catcher on a baseball team wears his cap.
- When the cap is worn in the second way, with the back of the cap facing forward and the front of the cap facing rearward, there is most often no ornamentation facing forward, since the back of a cap does not generally bear any ornamentation. Ornamentation that is placed above the visor would be facing rearward when the cap is worn in the second way. To overcome this deficiency, it would be desirable if a cap were provided which included three dimensional ornamentation which faces forward when the cap is worn with the visor facing rearward.
- Still other features would be desirable in a hat apparatus. For example, it would be desirable if a kit were provided which includes a cap and a plurality of interchangeable attachments for the cap. In this respect, it would be desirable if the interchangeable attachments could be attachable to the cap using VELCRO(™) material.
- Thus, while the foregoing indicates it to be well known to use hats or caps with visors, the discussion above does not teach or suggest that a conventional visor-containing hat apparatus has the following combination of desirable features: (1) includes three dimensional ornamentation; (2) provides ornamentation that is simulative of articles or objects; (3) includes three dimensional ornamentation which faces forward when the cap is worn with the visor facing rearward; (4) provides a kit which includes a cap and a plurality of interchangeable attachments for the cap; and (5) provides that interchangeable attachments can be attachable to the cap using VELCRO(™) material. The foregoing desired characteristics are provided by the unique hat apparatus of the present invention as will be made apparent from the following description thereof. Other advantages of the present invention over the prior art also will be rendered evident.
- To achieve the foregoing and other advantages, the present invention, briefly described, provides a hat apparatus which includes a head covering portion, a visor portion extending from the head covering portion in a visor projection direction, and a three dimensional, miniature, simulated article attachment attached to the head covering portion and extending from the head covering portion in an attachment projection direction. The visor projection direction and the attachment projection direction are not the same direction. Preferably, the visor projection direction and the attachment projection direction are directions that are separated by 180 degrees. The three dimensional, miniature, simulated article attachment can be in a form of a plush animal.
- A first quantity of hook or loop material can be attached to the head covering portion, and a second quantity of hook or loop material can be attached to the three dimensional, miniature, simulated article attachment. The second quantity of hook or loop material engages the first quantity of hook or loop material when the three dimensional, miniature, simulated article attachment is attached to the head covering portion.
- Ordinarily, the head covering portion includes a plurality of hat panels. The three dimensional, miniature, simulated article attachment is attached to the head covering portion, such that the three dimensional, miniature, simulated article attachment straddles two hat panels.
- In accordance with another aspect of the invention, a kit includes a hat member which includes a head covering portion, a visor portion, and first attachment means. A plurality of interchangeable three dimensional, miniature, simulated article attachments are also provided. Each three dimensional, miniature, simulated article attachment includes second attachment means for connection to the first attachment means. The first attachment means include can include a first quantity of hook or loop material, and the second attachment means can include a second quantity of hook or loop material.
