Adjustment straps are permanently attached to the sweat-guiding band, the adjustment straps including means for adjustably securing the sweat-guiding band to a user's head. A front panel of the hat is configured to couple front the front panel to the upwardly extending tabs to attach the cap/visor to the sweat-guiding band.
