Abstract
A cap with an adjustable visor section that is adjustable between a range from a lowered position, which gives the cap the appearance of a traditional baseball cap, and a raised position based on the incident sunlight and the wearer's preference, to shield the wearer's eyes. The visor section is removably attached to the sides of the cap thereby allowing other visors of different shapes or colors to be used interchangeably with the cap portion. The visor section also provides a means to attach protective eyewear thereon to further shield the wearer's eyes from sunlight or the like when the visor is worn in the lowered position.
