The present invention relates to headwear fastening devices and more particularly to a new headwear securing device for securing headwear to eyeglasses straps.
Headwear and eyeglasses, especially in the form of sunglasses, are commonly worn together. Additionally, the use of eyewear securing straps are commonly used to retain eyeglasses, especially in outdoor activities such as fishing, sailing, snow sports, and jogging. Some actions of these activities require that either the headwear or eyeglasses be removed such as wiping the forehead or lowering eyeglasses to see better. Additionally, headwear can be lost in the course of such activities by means of high wind. A retention device that connects headwear and eyeglasses secures the headwear against loss and allows for the user to retain use of both hands for convenience and safety. For example, when riding in a boat at high speeds a person wants both hands to hold onto the vessel and does not want to worry about losing their headwear.
Other headwear retention devices are not built into the headwear. While these devices serve their particular purposes, they are not convenient and adaptable to different models of sunglasses straps.
Thus, there is a need for a more convenient and adaptable retention device that allows for headwear and eyeglasses to be retained in proximity to the user without that user having to hold on to either item.
The present invention meets the needs described above by attaching headwear to eyeglasses straps by means of a cloth tab and fastener sewn into the adjustment strap of headwear.
As stated above. headwear is often blown off. The invention claimed here solves this problem.
Headwear is retained by the tab when blown off.
The version of the invention discussed here includes:
