ABSTRACT:
An improved flexible bill for caps and other head covering devices is disclosed. The improvement comprising a four layer construction of the bill with upper and lower layers made of a relatively stretchable material such as cotton and with a non-stretchable layer that overlies one of the inner layers. The preferred non-stretchable member is a cotton and rayon blend that is bonded to itself so as to form a relatively non-stretchable layer. The combination of layers allows for folding in one direction only, such as folded upward or folded downward. Lines of stitching going across the bill provide folding lines along which the bill may be folded. The bill may be folded upward along these lines in incremental amounts and the use of the non-stretchable layers enables the bill to retain this folded up shape.
