Abstract

This quick-change sweat band or pad is designed to be comfortable and is attached to the existing sweat band manufactured in a cap or other head-wear or garments. Primarily, it consists of a loop pile fastener adhered permanently to the existing sweat band or garment, and a hook pile fastener is similarly secured to an absorbent band or pad for engagement with the loop pile fastener. The combination of the hook pile fastener and the pad are quickly removed for replacement and washing when needed, and prevents odors from perspiration in the cap visor and the existing sweat band and/or other garments.
