ABSTRACT:
A sweatband for use with a sports cap of the type having a crown portion with a lower margin and an inner band secured to the lower margin of the crown portion to form a channel extending about the interior of the crown portion. The sweatband has first and second portions connected together along a top edge of the sweatband. The first portion is preferably a multilaminate structure including a layer of absorbent material permanently secured to a first layer of water resistant material. The second portion is a second layer of water resistant material secured to the first layer of water resistant material at the top edge of the sweatband, thereby allowing the lower edges of the first portion and second portion to remain free. The second portion of the sweatband is removably inserted into the channel between the inner band and the crown portion of the sports cap such that the first portion lies intermediate the inner band and a wearer's head, and the second portion lies intermediate the inner band and the crown portion. The first layer of water resistant material limits the amount of moisture and oils which may collect in the inner band of the cap, and the second layer of water resistant material minimizes contact between the inner band and the crown of the cap.
