Embodiments of The Hover Cover are comprised of one central rod, a left middle rod, a right middle rod, a left-side rod, a right-side rod, a left-side arm, a right-side arm, a central support, a crossbar, a brim-support, a brim, a hat cover, and a sizer. The central rod, the left middle rod, and the right middle rod span nearly the length of The Hover Cover and are connected on the back side of The Hover Cover to the back fitting and on the front side of The Hover Cover to the brim-support. The left-side rod and right-side rod extend from the back fitting to the brim-support on their respective sides of The Hover Cover. The crossbar transects The Hover Cover and is integrally formed with the brim-support. Connected to the crossbar is the central support. The brim extends forward from the brim-support.

Items of headwear are disclosed. An item of headwear has a battery, and an information portal. The information portal includes an input device, a human interface device, and a content providing system. The content providing system has non-transitory computer memory with a program with instructions for receiving information from the input device, and relaying the information to the human interface device. The content providing system further includes a processor, an output device, and a networking device.

An adjustable, configurable hat is described that can be configured to accommodate a variety of hairstyles. In general, the adjustable, configurable hat has a crown member, an enlarged opening and a panel that is releasably attachable to the crown member. In one example, the adjustable, configurable hat generally has an open configuration and a closed configuration. In the closed configuration, the panel is releasably attached to the crown member by the fastening mechanisms, covers the enlarged opening and generally has the appearance of a hat that is not adjustable and configurable. In the open configuration, the panel is releasably attached to the inside of the crown member by the fastening members such that it is not visible when the hat is worn and the enlarged opening allows the wearer of the hat to wear a variety of hairstyles while wearing the hat. In both configurations, the fastening mechanisms and the panel are hidden by the crown member. In another example, the crown is split down the back center to have a left and right half and the hat can be configured to its open configuration by separating the left half from the right half and folding each half inside two respective pockets inside the hat.

A temperature control head covering and system provides for a knit cap, a knit cap with flap, a headband and other elements that provide for one or more temperature controlling elements disposed on the head covering's interior, such as but not limited to a removable or built-in temperature control pack such as an ice pack or heat pack area contained within an inside pocket within an inside liner disposed on the inside of the head covering. The present invention's inside pocket may be configured to permanently or removeably hold a temperature control pack. In some embodiments, the present invention's inside pocket may run the full length or perimeter of the hats, or in other embodiments can be limited to a particular size or placement so as to focus on an affected or specific area.

A ventilated hat is provided that includes a crown and a brim, the brim having air passages that extends from the front and/or sides of the brim, through the brim to the crown. Air is enters the air passages at the front or sides of the brim when the wearer moves or when any slight breeze blows into the brim, cooling the wearer's head. The hat can be constructed as a single unit or as a frame upon which replaceable hat covers are mounted.

A light-weight heat-reflective substructure for a hat can be comprised of a semi-rigid bottom loop, top loop, two or more angled supports, and heat-reflective panels. The bottom loop can have a diameter commensurate with the size of the hat. The top loop can have a diameter commensurate with the diameter of the hat's crown. Each angled support can be coupled to the bottom and top loops, creating a three-dimensional frame. The angle that each angled support is coupled can be a minimum of fifteen degrees from a horizontal plane. The heat-reflective panels can couple to the angled supports of the frame, covering space between angled supports. The heat-reflective substructure can reduce an amount of thermal radiation transferred to the user by five percent or more as compared to wearing the hat without the heat-reflective substructure. Angling of the panels can increase an amount of surface area available for reflection.

A head covering system for securely storing and retrieving a firearm stored inside is provided. The firearm is stored inside an interior hollow section in a concealed manner inside the head covering section as the interior hollow section is covered by a closing section in a way that visually blends the closing section with the rest of the head covering system. In an embodiment, magnets may be attached to the top of interior of the hat to secure a firearm.
