Headgear having insulated ventilation channels and perspiration and moisture drainage channel

Abstract

This headgear having insulated ventilation channels and perspiration and moisture drainage channel consists of top insulated ventilation channels 42 with front ventilation openings 44 and rear ventilation openings 60. Insulated side walls 46 with side ventilation openings 48. Rim with embedded perspiration and moisture drainage channel 50. Perspiration and moisture drainage channel 66 perspiration and moisture collection holes 64 and perspiration and moisture drainage holes and rim adjustment strap 54. Air circulates between front and back of top of headgear through insulated ventilation channels to aid in the removal of excess moisture and heat from the top of the wearer's head. Insulated side walls with ventilation holes aid in the removal of excess moisture and heat from the sides of the wearer's head. Perspiration and moisture from the wearer's head is removed through collection holes placed on the rim embedded perspiration and moisture drainage channel and drained through discharge holes placed at the ends of the drainage channel in the rear area of the headgear. Other embodiments are described and shown.
