ABSTRACT:
A visored cap-type protective helmet for a bicyclist or the like is formed of a spherical fabric head shell defined by an outer fabric body and a matching spherical inner lining. Circumferentially spaced, generally radial fold lines join the outer fabric body to the inner lining and formed circumferentially adjacent, separate, sector shaped, arcuate pockets. Soft protective foam plastic pads sized to and of correspondingly sector shape fill the pockets. A visor integrated to the head shell at a circumferential bottom edge projects outwardly at the front of the helmet. A latching strip having one end fixedly mounted to a pocket at the front of the unit detachably fastens to a pocket at the rear of the head shell to permit the unit to be employed as a pouch for carrying articles and permitting the visor, when folded in, to be captured within the same pocket. A chin strap system is carried by the head shell and additionally an adjustable length shoulder or belt strap for carrying the unit when used as a pouch about the waist of the user or over the shoulder of the wearer. The adjustable length shoulder or belt strap may be carried by the head shell within grooves formed by transversely aligned fold lines between adjacent pockets when not used as a shoulder strap or belt strap.
