The present invention provides a hat which can prevent a golfer's head-up occurring in an actual swing during swing practice or a golf round, and can prevent surroundings causing a hindrance to the swing from coming into the golfer's view so as to enable the golfer to stably swing, so that the golfer can accurately hit a golf ball and increase a driving distance, and can have an excellent shot feeling. The present invention comprises: a holding hole formed in a brim protruding forward from and connected to the cap of a hat; and a gaze-holding member which is fitted in the holding hole, so as to allow the direction of a user's gaze to coincide with a ball and thus enable the user to perform a follow-through action while gazing at the ball until the moment of impact.

An article of headwear includes a brim that extends above a face of a wearer and a panel that is selectively coupled to the brim. The panel includes an adhesive surface that facilitates coupling of the panel to the brim and an outer surface that is disposed opposite the adhesive surface. In various embodiments, the outer surface is a reflective surface that directs ambient light onto a face of the wearer so as to create favorable lighting conditions on the wearer's face.
