An eyeglass-accommodating hat includes a crown portion having front and back panel sections and a pair of opposing side panel sections that interconnect the front and back panel sections. Each side panel section includes conforming triangular inner and outer sheets that are peripherally interconnected to form a receptacle between the sheets. Forward and rearward entry slots are formed into the receptacle through forward and rearward vertical seams interconnecting the inner and outer sheets. Glasses are supported on the hat by inserting respective temples through the entry slots and into the receptacles of the respective side panel sections.

A hat with increased resistance to lift includes a crown forming a generally hemispherical portion configured to cover a head of a person. A visor extends outwardly from the crown in a generally horizontal direction and is configured to provide shade. The visor includes an aperture and a mesh material arranged in the aperture and attached to the visor at edges of the aperture. Alternately, the visor includes a visor board and N holes passing through the visor board, where N is an integer in a range from 4 to 100. The mesh material and/or the N holes equalize pressure on a bottom surface relative to a top surface of the visor by allowing air to pass from the bottom surface through the mesh material to the top surface.

A 360-degree brim from improving the sun protection of a separate headwear. The 360-degree brim may have a pull cord for selectively adjusting the fit of its head opening. The 360-degree brim may have fold lines for moving the 360-degree brim between a plurality of successively smaller folded conditions for storage and ease of access.

In example implementations described herein, there is a smart hat that is configured to receive gesture inputs through an accelerometer or through touch events on the hat, with light emitting diodes providing feedback to the wearer. The smart hat can be configured to be connected wirelessly to an external apparatus to control the apparatus by transmitting and receiving messages (e.g., commands) between the hat and the apparatus wirelessly. Further, a network of smart hats may be managed by an external device depending on the desired implementation.
