Benefits of technology

[0008]The present invention overcomes the problems of the prior art as outlined above and provides an improved hat for wearers having long hair. Specifically, the present invention provides additional comfort and an improved fit over traditional baseball-style hats and painter's hats by employing a larger opening such that the accumulated hair of the wearer can be threaded through said opening without distorting the shape of the crown and / or detrimentally affecting the position or fit of the hat.

Problems solved by technology

When the rear opening of a hat is enlarged and positioned such that accumulated hair in a pony tail can be easily threaded through, the hat loses structural integrity in the rear of the hat due to the reduction of material comprising the crown.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to an improved head covering and, more specifically, to a hat having a crown with an enlarged rear opening and wide band to allow the long accumulated hair of the wearer to be easily threaded through and to be comfortably worn.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Head coverings such as baseball-style hats and painter's hats have a domed or flat-topped crown that is constructed to accept and cover the top of the head of the wearer.[0003]Baseball-style hats and painter's hats are commonly worn on a casual basis and during athletic and non-athletic activities. Persons having long hair typically accumulate their hair in a ponytail on the back of their head in order to prevent uncontrolled movement of the hair during such activities. Such accumulation of hair can interfere with the proper fit of a traditional baseball-style hat or painter's hat. For instance, the ponytail may be bunched up under the crown of the hat on the top of the ...
