Abstract

The present invention relates to headgear and more specifically to soft headgear wearable by participants in water sports such as surfing and swimming, in which the wearer's activities take place at on just below the water surface and where drag from water friction and impact tends to cause headgear to be displaced from the wearer's head. It provides headgear having fastening means extending from the wall for fastening behind a wearer's head. The fastening means in an embodiment comprises strips of material extending rearwards from opposite locations of the wall to be tied together behind the head.

Claims

11
AMENDED CLAIMS
received by the International Bureau on 13 September 2018
(13.09.2018)
Headgear comprising a fabric wall defining a head-receiving cavity, fastening means extending from the wall for fastening behind a wearer' s head, whereby the headgear is securable against displacement by water contact, and a tail portion depending from the wall and being locatable in use to extend down the back of a user's neck, defining a barrier to incident solar ultraviolet radiation, wherein fastening together of the fastening means over the tail portion creates a gusseted effect between the tail portion and the respective side panels.
Headgear according to claim 1 configured to be loosely fitting on the wearer's head unless otherwise secured by said fastening means.
Headgear according to claim 1 or claim 2, wherein the fastening means are fastenable together over the tail portion, the tail portion then being between wearer's neck and the fastening means.
Headgear according to claim 3, comprising a central elongate panel from which said tail portion extends.
Headgear according to claim 4 comprising left and right side panels connected to opposite sides of the central panel to hang therefrom. Headgear according to claim 5 wherein the side panels in use extend downwardly from the central panel to cover a wearer's respective ears at least partially.
Headgear according to claim 6 having a gap between the tail portion and the side panels.
Headgear according to claim 7 wherein fastening together of the fastening means over the tail portion narrows the respective gaps substantially.
Headgear according to claim 1 or claim 2 wherein the fastening means comprises knottable tie means.
Headgear according to claim 9, wherein the tie means are adapted for tying together proximate the base of the wearer's skull.
Headgear according to claim 10, wherein the tie means comprises a pair of elongate strips of material being extending portions of a band attached to the wall and defining a hem of the wall.
Headgear according to claim 1 or claim 2, wherein the fastening means comprises hook and loop fastener means.
Headgear according to claim 1 or claim 2, further comprising a peak portion operatively extending above a wearer's eyes. 12
Headgear according to claim 13 wherein the peak portion lacks rigidity. Headgear according to claim 1 or claim 2, wherein the fabric comprises a textile selected from textiles having a UPF rating of at least 40.

Statement under Article 19(1)

Claim 1 is amended to recited that a gusseted effect is created when the fastening means are fastened. D1 (Martin) teaches away from this effect because of the rounded shapes of panels 13A and 13B in Martin contributing to a tight fitting configuration with no such effect. The gussetting provides for ventilation of the wearer's head and promotes drying of the headgear while worn. D1 is throughout concerned with elasticity / stretchability for close fitting of the garment to the head at all times. It is not given to crimping or creasing (see D1 , col. 2, lines 1-5) . By obtaining a relatively tight fit without crimping and creasing, the forming of cavities resulting in thermal anisotropic zones is avoided. These properties are entirely opposite to those achieved by the cotton fabric of the present invention.
