Abstract

A headgear stabilizing and venting apparatus comprises a flexible material having attachment means provided on a first side thereof and a plurality of resilient flexible spacing means provided in a second side thereof. The length of the flexible material enables the apparatus to be positioned within a crown portion of an article of headgear enabling the spacing means to engage the user's head when the headgear is worn. The spacing means serves to space the headgear with respect to the user's head to permit air to flow therebetween and further to flex against the user's head in order to stabilize the headgear in position.
