A reconfigurable brim for a hat. The reconfigurable brim includes a body disposed on a plane. The body includes a hinged core that can selectively deform into a plurality of variable positions, such that in each position a first angle is formed between a first lateral side and a second lateral side of the body, and a second angle is formed between a front section and an opposing rear section of the body. The hinged core can retain each position until selectively reconfigured and allows for repeated reconfiguration without weakening the ability of the hinged core to retain each position. In some embodiments, the hinged core is a matrix embedded into an elastic layer. The hinged core allows the body to be independently and repeatedly repositioned along any point of a lateral axis and longitudinal axis of the plane of the body.
