Cap with unique profile

Abstract

A cap including a dome portion, wherein one or more panels that form the dome portion and one or more darts define a shape of the dome portion, wherein one or more terminal ends of adjacent panels are coupled by one or more seams and the one or more darts extend along a length of the one or more panels.

The invention claimed is: 
     
         1 . A cap comprising:
 one or more panels that form a dome portion, wherein one or more terminal ends of adjacent panels are coupled by one or more seams; and   one or more darts that define a shape of the dome portion;   wherein the one or more darts extend along a length of the one or more panels.   
     
     
         2 . The cap from  claim 1 , wherein the one or more darts comprise a first dart and a second dart, wherein a length of the first dart is different from a length of a second dart. 
     
     
         3 . The cap from  claim 1 , wherein the one or more darts converge on a top portion of the dome portion. 
     
     
         4 . The cap from  claim 3 , wherein the one or more seams converge on a top portion of the dome portion. 
     
     
         5 . The cap from  claim 4 , wherein the one or more seams extend to a bottom portion of the dome portion. 
     
     
         6 . The cap from  claim 5 , wherein the one or more darts extend to a bottom exterior portion of the dome portion. 
     
     
         7 . The cap from  claim 5 , wherein the one or more darts terminate before a bottom exterior portion of the dome portion. 
     
     
         8 . The cap from  claim 1 , wherein the one or more panels comprise a first panel and a second panel, wherein a width of the first panel is different from a width of a second panel. 
     
     
         9 . The cap from  claim 1 , wherein the cap further comprises a fitted mechanism, wherein the fitted mechanism comprises a system for altering a circumferential length of the dome portion. 
     
     
         10 . The cap from  claim 9 , wherein the fitted mechanism further comprises one or more buttons, one or more buckles, one or more tethers, or one or more pull cords. 
     
     
         11 . The cap from  claim 9 , wherein the fitted mechanism is on a lower back portion of the dome portion. 
     
     
         12 . The cap from  claim 1 , wherein the cap further comprises a bill portion, wherein the bill portion is coupled to an exterior perimeter of the dome portion along a portion of the dome portion. 
     
     
         13 . The cap from  claim 1 , wherein the one or more seams comprise a first seam, a second seam, and a third seam;
 wherein a first angle is defined by a rotational distance about a circumference of the dome portion between the first seam and the second seam, a second angle is defined by a rotational distance about a circumference of the dome portion between the second seam and the third seam, and a third angle is defined by a rotational distance about a circumference of the dome portion between the third seam and the first seam.   
     
     
         14 . The cap from  claim 13 , wherein the first angle, the second angle, and the third angle are not the same. 
     
     
         15 . A cap comprising:
 a dome portion comprising one or more panels, wherein one or more terminal ends of adjacent panels are coupled by one or more seams;   one or more darts that define a shape of the dome portion; and   a fitted mechanism, wherein the fitted mechanism comprises a system for altering a circumferential length of the dome portion;   wherein the one or more darts extend along a length of the one or more panels.   
     
     
         16 . The cap from  claim 15 , wherein the cap further comprises a bill portion, wherein the bill portion is coupled to an exterior perimeter of the dome portion along a portion of the dome portion. 
     
     
         17 . The cap from  claim 15 , wherein the one or more panels comprise a first panel and a second panel, wherein a width of the first panel is different from a width of a second panel. 
     
     
         18 . The cap from  claim 15 , wherein the one or more darts comprise a first dart and a second dart, wherein a length of the first dart is different from a length of a second dart.
