ABSTRACT:
A head covering device including a hood portion and a detachable cover for covering the head, neck and upper back from the sun. The hood portion is formed of an absorbent inner layer of material and a porous outer layer of material which together function to shade the wearer, conserve body water, and allow for cooling the wearer by evaporation of perspiration. Fasteners are provided for removably attaching the cover to the hood portion. A channel is provided which extends through a crown portion of the hood and receives a cord whose ends are adjustably connectable for securing the hood portion onto the wearer's head. Another channel provided along a lower edge of the hood portion receives a cord whose ends are adjustably connectable for gathering the hood portion about the neck of the wearer.
