Face shield assembly and method

1. A head covering comprising:

a body defining a head opening configured to receive a user's head therethrough;

an attachment element coupled to the body, the attachment element being configured to couple to a face shield positionable on the user's face via a strap; and

an adjuster coupled to the attachment element, the adjuster configured to transition the attachment element between a first position and a second position, wherein when the attachment element transitions from the first position to the second position a tension in the strap transitions from a first tension to a second tension that is greater than the first tension,

wherein the attachment element is separated from the adjuster by a first distance when the attachment element is in the first position, the attachment element is separated from the adjuster by a second distance when the attachment element is in the second position, and the first distance is greater than the second distance, and

wherein the adjuster comprises a dial member that is manually rotatable between a first dial position and a second dial position rotatably spaced from the first dial position, wherein when the dial member is in the first dial position the attachment element is in the first position, and wherein when the dial member is rotated to the second dial position the attachment element transitions to the second position.

2. The head covering of claim 1 , wherein the body comprises a mask compartment, wherein the body and mask compartment define a compartment opening and a compartment cavity, the compartment opening being sized for receiving the face shield therethrough, and the compartment cavity being sized to store the face shield within.

3. The head covering of claim 2 , wherein the body includes an inner body surface, the inner body surface defining a head cavity for receiving the user's head within, wherein the mask compartment is positioned within the head cavity.

4. The head covering of claim 1 , wherein the body comprises at least one of a baseball cap, a skull cap, a visor, and a bucket hat.

5. The head covering of claim 1 , wherein the attachment element is a first attachment element and the head covering further comprises a second attachment element,

wherein the adjuster is configured to transition each of the first and second attachment elements between respective first and second positions, and

wherein the second attachment element is separated from the adjuster by an initial distance when the second attachment element is in its first position, the second attachment element is separated from the adjuster by an adjusted distance when the second attachment element is in its second position, and the initial distance is greater than the adjusted distance.

6. The head covering of claim 5 , wherein the first and second attachment elements are spaced from each other by a third distance when the first and second attachment elements are in their respective first positions, the first and second attachment elements are spaced from each other by a fourth distance when the first and second attachment elements are in their respective second positions, and the fourth distance is less than the third distance.

7. A head covering comprising:

a body defining a head opening configured to receive a user's head therethrough;

a first attachment element and a second attachment element coupled to the body, the first and second attachment elements being configured to couple to a face shield positionable on the user's face via a strap, wherein the first and second attachment elements are separated from each other by a first distance in a first configuration, the first and second attachment elements are separated from each other by a second distance in a second configuration, and the first distance is greater than the second distance; and

an adjuster coupled to the first and second attachment elements, the adjuster configured to transition the first and second attachment elements between the first configuration and the second configuration, wherein when the first and second attachment elements transition from the first configuration to the second configuration a tension in the strap transitions from a first tension to a second tension that is greater than the first tension,

wherein the adjuster comprises a dial member that is manually rotatable between a first dial position and a second dial position rotatably spaced from the first dial position, wherein when the dial member is in the first dial position the attachment element is in the first position, and wherein when the dial member is rotated to the second dial position the attachment element transitions to the second position.

8. The head covering of claim 7 , wherein the body comprises a mask compartment, wherein the body and mask compartment define a compartment opening and a compartment cavity, the compartment opening being sized for receiving the face shield therethrough, and the compartment cavity being sized to store the face shield within.

9. The head covering of claim 8 , wherein the body includes an inner body surface, the inner body surface defining a head cavity for receiving the user's head within, wherein the mask compartment is positioned within the head cavity.

10. The head covering of claim 7 , wherein the body comprises at least one of a baseball cap, a skull cap, a visor, and a bucket hat.
