Provided is an athletic headband with removable cooling elements. The headband includes a body, first cooling elements, dropdown pocket, and second cooling element. The body has first and second openings. The body includes pockets disposed about the body between the first and second openings. The pockets have respective openings. The first cooling elements are configured to be received into the pockets through the respective openings to provide cooling about the head of the user. The dropdown pocket is secured to an interior of the body, extends below the body, and has an opening. The second cooling element is received into the dropdown pocket through the opening, wherein a first cooling element in a pocket of the body overlaps at least partially the second cooling element in the dropdown pocket and is configured to press the second cooling element into the neck of the user to provide cooling to the neck.

A brow pad is provided. The brow pad can block and/or re-direct sweat away from the eyes of a user. The brow pad can include a fabric band configured to contact a forehead of the user, an enclosed channel disposed within the fabric band and extending from a first location proximate to a first end of the fabric band to a second location proximate to a second end of the fabric band opposite the first end, and a drainage strip disposed within the enclosed channel.

An interactive sweatband includes a center portion having a first end and an opposing second end. The sweatband includes a first wing portion that extends from and is operably engaged with the first end of the center portion. The sweatband includes a second wing portion that extends from and is operably engaged with the opposing second end of the center portion. The sweatband device may further include a front surface and an opposing rear surface. The sweatband may include an outflow channel that extends along and is defined by at least one of the front and opposing rear surface of the sweatband.

Various embodiments are directed to a diffuser headband system. The system may include a diffuser headband formed from an elastic material coupled to a sanitized air generating source that produces sanitized air. The diffuser headband may form a substantially oval shape and include an elastic tube attached to the elastic material. A first portion of the elastic tube may be perforated to include a group of air outlet holes spaced along a surface of the elastic tube. A second portion of the elastic tube may include an inlet that receives the sanitized air from the sanitized air generating source. The air outlet holes receive the sanitized air from the inlet and expel the sanitized air to provide an air shield that encircles a person's body wearing the diffuser headband. The air shield blocks viral aerosol droplets from entering or leaving an airspace occupied by the person wearing the diffuser headband.

A cooling headgear is disclosed. Absorbent material within the headgear retains cold water. When worn by a user, the headgear holds the cold water to the head of the user, cooling the user.

One variation of a system includes a garment insert: configured to be worn across a dermal surface; including a textile panel defining a grid receptacle; and including a grid structure arranged within the grid receptacle and defining an array of apertures. The system further includes a cooling unit including a heatsink structure: defining a base section defining an inner surface configured to contact the dermal surface; and defining a set of heatsink columns extending from the base section, opposite the inner surface, and configured to seat extending through the array of apertures. The cooling unit: is configured to wick moisture from the dermal surface toward surfaces of the set of heatsink columns; and includes a polymer frame, bonded to the heatsink structure about the base section, configured to abut surfaces of the base section to surfaces of the grid receptacle to flexibly retain the cooling unit within the grid receptacle.

A head wrap is an apparatus that is used to protect and decorate a user's head. The apparatus includes a head-bracing body, an elastic strip, a first lateral tail, a second lateral tail, a first intermediate tail, a second intermediate tail, a plurality of ornaments, and a ventilation mechanism. The head-bracing body is the primary coverage means for the back of the user's head. The elastic strip connects to the head-bracing body to allow the head-bracing body to expand in order to fit different head sizes. The first lateral tail, second lateral tail, first intermediate tail, and second intermediate tail each connect to the head-bracing body, allowing for coverage of the user's head. The at least one ornament relates to a decorative unit or several units capable of being tied to the first lateral tail, second lateral tail, first intermediate tail, and second intermediate tail as a means of displaying the decorative pattern. The plurality of ventilation holes allows for heat trapped between the present invention and the user's head to escape.
