ABSTRACT:
A lightweight, low cost sun and sports visor that is comfortably fit and reliably attached to a wearer's head. According to a first embodiment, the visor includes a headband, having a series of alternating ridges and valleys that establishes spaces through which air may flow to ventilate the forehead. A pair of side straps are slidably adjustable relative to a respective pair of opposing side bands to releasably attach the visor to the wearer's head. According to a second embodiment, the visor includes a peripherally extending, folded-over headband having an air space or channel running therethrough so that the headband can be compressed into the channel and thereby conform to the shape of and cushion the wearer's forehead to assure a comfortable fit. The channel runs continuously through the headband and each of a pair of opposing side bands so as to receive therein the tops of the ears of the wearer to anchor the visor and prevent sunburn to the ears.
