Abstract
A spray misting system for use with headwear having a front and rear, including an integrated reservoir and pump which contains a quantity of water, and a forward misting nozzle. The forward misting head is provided at the front of the headwear forwardly of the user to direct a fine, cooling, spray mist toward the user. A conduit connects the water reservoir with the forward misting nozzle, and a flow control valve allows the user to control the flow of water through the conduit. When desired the user operates a handle on the integrated reservoir and pump to initiate flow through the conduit to create a misting spray at the forward misting head which is directed toward the face and forehead of the user to effect cooling of the user.
