Modifiable transferable insertable hair and skin protective baseball Cap Liner
20210022427 · 2021-01-28 ·

A modifiable transferrable insert-able hair and skin protection baseball cap liner is an apparatus in which the device can be inserted into any standard baseball cap undetected by others, to protect the hair and skin of the user when wearing. The invention can be manufactured by the method of sewing. A crown is formed from a non-woven fabric. A structural felt fabric is attached to the underside of the front formed crown and is sandwiched between the non-woven fabric in the underside of the crown, and the skin and hair protecting satin fabric. The felt fabric lines the lower inner portion of the invention to the rear of the apparatus for structural support on both sides of the invention. A parallel, sewn in grid on the lower left and right side of the invention allows the user to modify the device by cutting the selected grid lines to accommodate various type of baseball caps. The invention demonstrates the ability to have ventilations holes sewn into the upper crown nonwoven fabric to allow air flow between the baseball cap and the users head. The rear portion of the baseball cap insert is formed to accommodate a fitted baseball cap as well as an open back baseball cap.

SKIN PROTECTING GARMENT
