Abstract:     The present invention is directed particularly to a headband structure which includes a moisture absorptive member for encircling a human head in embracement with the brow thereof, the head encircling member taking various forms exemplified by a bandanna or an expansible or stretchable element constructed of terrycloth or cheesecloth having elastic means associated therewith. Further comprising the headband structrure of this invention is a preformed thermoplastic film-like eyeglass or vision member which is readily invertible by the wearer from an active line of sight position to an inactive out of line of sight position, or conversely, through the use of means effecting cooperative releasable engagement between the head encircling member and the eyeglass or vision member.

Claim I claim:     1. In combination with a continuous elastic headband having moisture absorptive properties and textured to present a larger plurality of upstanding fibrous loops, the improvement which compresses a rimless relative thin one-piece preformed flexible thermoplastic eyeglass member of generally wraparound configuration having a central body portion and integral rearwardly directed tapered wing portions to substantially entirely shield the eyes from sun rays and the intrusion of foreign objects, and means adhesively secured to the body and wing portions of said eyeglass member along the upper inner marginal portions thereof and presenting fibrous hooks outstanding therefrom for cooperative releasable engagement with the upstanding loops of the textured continuous elastic headband along the outer exposed surface thereof, said eyeglass member thereby being readily invertible by rotation through an angle of about 180 degrees from an active line of sight position on said headband depending downwardly thereon to an active out of line sight position on said headband extending upwardly thereon in releasable engagement therewith.
