All season baseball cap

Abstract

The present invention provides an improved specially designed ball cap that can be worn throughout the year, comprising a cap having easily accessed ear muffs positioned on each side of the cap so as to rest directly over the ears when accessed, these ear flaps are essentially triangular shaped panels featuring a cushiony warm lining, manufactured of cotton or wool. An easily accessed self affixing hook and loop strap fastener extends from the base of each ear flap and is comfortably secured beneath the chin during use. Designed to rest flush against the sides and top of the hat when not in use, these ear muffs blend with the overall design of the cap and can be adorned with logos or other decorative imagery, providing a striking contrast to the cap itself.
