Abstract A free-size cap with a size adjusting band is disclosed. In the cap, six gores, integrated into a crown, are made of a stretchable woven fabric, with a weft directional elongation of the gores being higher than a warp directional elongation of the gores. A sweat band is attached along a lower edge of the integrated gores. The sweat band is made of a stretchable woven fabric, with a weft directional elongation of the sweat band being higher than the weft directional elongation of the gores. The warp directional elongation of the gores is 25%±2%, and the weft directional elongation of the gores is 50%±5%. The weft directional elongation of the sweat band is 65%±5%. The free-size cap is thus primarily and manually adjusted in size by its size adjusting band and is finely and automatically adjusted in size by the elasticity of the stretchable woven fabric of both the crown and the sweat band. The cap thus allows a user to feel comfortable while wearing the cap. The cap is made of stretchable woven fabric designed to have a high elasticity in both wefts and warps, thus being prevented from easily wrinkling in a vertical or horizontal direction while having a desired automorphism.
A free-size cap with a size adjusting band, comprising: a plurality of gores integrated into a crown and made of a stretchable woven fabric, with a weft directional elongation of the gores being higher than a warp directional elongation of the gores; and a sweat band attached along a lower edge of the integrated gores and made of a stretchable woven fabric, with a weft directional elongation of said sweat band being higher than the weft directional elongation of said gores.
