ABSTRACT:
A headgear fitting and accessory system is disclosed for use with headgear having a forward portion, a rearward portion, two lateral portions, a continuous lower rim and an upper crown. The headgear fitting and accessory system includes a flexible pad configured to be positioned within the interior of the headgear. The pad has a lower ring-forming portion configured for placement adjacent the headgear lower rim. The pad may incorporate one or more suspension straps extending from the lower ring-forming portion and configured for placement adjacent the headgear upper crown. The pad may also be provided with one or more sizing flaps pivotally connected to the lower ring-forming portion and configured for placement between a folded position wherein the sizing flaps are folded between the ring-forming portion and the headgear, and an unfolded position wherein the sizing flaps are not folded between the ring-forming portion and the headgear. One or more stays are provided which are configured for mounting to the headgear and for releasably engaging the pad. The stays allow the pad to be secured within the head gear and permit adjustment of the suspension straps, if present. A retention strap and strap retainer arrangement may also be added to provide a closed loop, non-buckling retention system that can be adjusted to fit heads of different size without breaking the closed loop.
