Description
- A portion of the disclosure of this patent document contains material which is subject to copyright protection. The copyright owner has no objection to any reproduction by anyone of the patent disclosure, as it appears in the United States Patent and Trademark Office patent files or records, but otherwise reserves all copyright rights whatsoever.
- The present invention relates to sports gears, and more particularly to a sports backpack with a headwear carrier, wherein the headwear carrier of the sports backpack comprises a headwear panel releasably coupled at a front side of the sports backpack to securely retain and protect the headwear thereat.
- Many individuals who play sports are required to carry their own sport equipments or gears to practices and games. For example, baseball players will carry their own baseball gears, including baseball bats, baseball shoes, uniforms, gloves and helmets, for practices and games. In addition, they may also bring clean cloth and extra shoes for change after the practice or game.
- In order to carry the helmet, the wearer may simply put the helmet inside the backpack. However, the helmet will take up most of the space in the backpack, such that other items, such as shoes and uniform, will not be able to be packed inside the backpack. In other words, the wearer must buy a bigger backpack to carry all the items, including the helmet, inside the backpack. However, it is not easy to access different items inside the backpack as the helmet is big enough to block different items inside the backpack. When the helmet is placed in the backpack, the user is unable to take the items at the bottom of the backpack through the top opening thereof because the items at the bottom of the backpack are covered by and hidden under the helmet at the top of the backpack. In other words, the user must take out the helmet at the top of the backpack in order to access the bottom thereof. As a result, many wearers may bring an additional bag to individually carry the helmet. Another backpack may include a helmet mesh pocket for carrying the helmet. However, the helmet cannot be protected by the mesh pocket. As a result, the helmet may be scratched or hit by external objects.
- In addition, a sports cap is a symbolic item for a player to represent a team in a particular sport. Nowadays, sports cap not only is a sporting utility but also is a fashionable item. Players like to wear sports caps before and after the practices or games. It is always a hassle to keep the sports cap in shape when it is not worn.
- The invention is advantageous in that it provides a sports backpack with a headwear carrier, wherein the headwear carrier of the sports backpack comprises a headwear panel releasably coupled at a front side of the sports backpack to securely retain and protect the headwear thereat.
