ABSTRACT:
The invention pertains to a protective head covering having a protective impact absorbing pad located therein. The head covering is mainly designed for skiing where frequent falls or spills occur. The head covering is so designed that to a casual observer the head covering makes a fashionable appearance. The head covering is constructed from a unitary piece of material which initially lies flat. The flat piece of material has first and second edges and third and fourth edges and two side edges. The first and the second edges are forming substantially semi-circles and when sewn together, they form a hollow head contacting portion. The third and fourth edges have contours which are different from the first and second edges and they form a hollow crown portion when sewn together. Thereafter, the head portion is inverted into the crown portion. A crescent-shaped impact absorbing pad is placed on top of the head covering portion and is prevented from moving in a forward and a rearward direction as well as in lateral directions.
