Abstract
A hat with a brim extending outward from the base of a crown wherein a water adsorbent material is disposed on the inside lower portion of the crown, and extends outward onto the underside of the brim. A headband member on the outside lower portion of the base of the crown constricts the crown, causing it to apply the portion of the water adsorbent material disposed therein directly to the head of a user. The crown has venting holes incorporated along the head band. The water absorbent material comprises a closed cell foam material. The closed cell foam material is encased in a water adsorbent matting material to prevent direct contact between the closed cell foam material and the skin of a user.
