Method of fast reforming wearable goods and handbags, providing people flexibility to change the appearances of wearable goods and handbags. The method designs an approach of using easy fastener connecting hardware to connect interchangeable sections of wearable goods and handbags. The fastener, which is used as connecting device of the method, is applied to assemble and fasten the materials of interchangeable sections. The method claims the interchangeable and detachable sections of wearable goods and handbags designed with supporting small holes or built-in pins of fasteners, so that the pins of the fastener hardware can be used to connect different sections through the small holes. The fastener hardware has secured fasten after connecting interchangeable accessories. To install and fasten the fastener, people can just insert the pin of the fastener to the base of the fastener. Inserting pins of fasteners through holes of detachable materials, multi-layer materials can be assembled and fixed to the base of fastener. With the design of the method, wearable goods such as footwear upper vamp, footwear front upper, footwear rear upper, footwear soles, hats, bag panels, bag straps, bag handles, and bag accessories can be assembled or disassembled by attaching or detaching with fasteners. Therefore, people can change or reverse the footwear upper vamp appearances without changing the soles of footwear by replacing or applying the interchangeable upper vamp pieces with fasteners. People can change the footwear soles without changing the footwear upper vamp by applying the interchangeable soles with fasteners. People can change the brim combination of hat by connecting different piece of brim with fasteners. People can change bag panels by applying the interchangeable panels with fasteners. People can change bag accessories such as straps, handles, flaps, ornamental members by replacing the interchangeable pieces with fasteners. People can convert big tote panel to form small purse or shoulder bag by attaching to different interchangeable panels with fasteners. The method claims not to give sewing to assemble footwear, hat, and handbags. The method claims small holes or built-in pins of fasteners designing on the interchangeable materials, appearances of wearable goods or handbags can be reformed by assembling with fasteners.

Baseball caps to be worn on a person's head are provided. According to one embodiment, a baseball cap includes a dome configured to be placed on the wearer's head, wherein the dome includes one or more panels and one or more cooling channels. The baseball cap also includes a hub positioned at a top of the dome. The hub comprises a central cavity and one or more conduits in gaseous communication with the one or more cooling channels of the dome. A coolant output port is provided in gaseous communication with the central cavity of the hub. The coolant output port is configured to supply a coolant gas to the one or more cooling channels of the dome via the central cavity of the hub.

A system of hoods built into hooded hunting garments, which makes the hunting garment multifunctional for concealment, or for high visibility safety. The hood system consists of an outer hood that is drab or camouflage, matching the garment itself, for the purpose of concealment, and an inner hood that is blaze color or blaze camouflage, for the purpose of high visibility safety. The hunter can quickly, easily, and quietly alternate on demand in the field, between functions of concealment or safety by selecting how the hoods are worn and exposed, without having to remove the entire garment from the body, or detach/reattach components, to do so. The hoods and garment's functions can be altered with one hand, and without removing hand coverings. The system of hoods creates a single multifunctional hunting garment that replaces the need for two distinct garments for specific hunting applications.

A hat or helmet having an electric motor driven rotatable arm permanently or temporarily affixed to its top exterior. The arm holds a rally rag, banner or flag for twirling about.

A hat is provided, comprising a brim, a crown, electroluminescent (EL) wire forming an outline at least around the brim and the crown, a battery pack secured to the underside of the crown, and a controller, secured to the underside of the crown and electrically coupled to the battery pack and the EL wire, configured to control the current applied to the EL wire. The brim and crown are formed from a translucent material. A method of manufacturing a hat is also provided, comprising: providing a translucent material, forming a brim and crown of the translucent material, securing an electroluminescent (EL) wire around at least the brim and crown, providing a battery pack, providing a controller, electrically coupling the EL wire to the battery pack and controller, and securing the battery pack and controller to the underside of the crown.

A protective facemask for a helmet includes one or more compression portions. In one aspect, a facemask of a plurality of arcuately curved bars includes a frame portion and lateral bars configured to extend across the frontal opening of the helmet and join to the frame portion at terminal ends. The lateral bars include one or more compression portions which are more compliant to a given force than other portions of the plurality of arcuately curved bars. A compression portion may include a first material that is less rigid than a second material forming the other portions of the arcuately curved bars. A compression portion may further include first and second zones, with the first zone being more compliant to the given force than the second zone. Such compression portions may be positioned within the lateral bars near the point of joining with the frame.

The present invention relates generally to a cap with an exchangeable visor, and more specifically to a cap with an exchangeable visor, the cap having a cap body configured to surround the head of a person and a cap visor configured to be selectively coupled to and separated from one side of the cap body, the cap including: a rail part configured to be formed on the outer circumferential surface of the bottom of the cap body; a coupling part configured to be coupled to the visor to surround one side of the visor; and a fastening groove part configured to be coupled to one side of the coupling part, and to be engaged with the rail part in a sliding manner.
