Abstract

See full text

A cover apparatus adapted to cover at least a portion of an ear for protection from the elements, artificial heat sources, and the like, is provided. Such a cover is produced in uniform structure such that any properly sized implement may be affixed to either a left or right ear. Additionally, the manner of affixing is provided through the provision of the ear cover exhibiting sufficient elasticity for pressure fitting around a subject ear auricle and lobe simultaneously, with lower levels of elasticity exhibited by the middle portion thereof extending between the top and bottom portions. Such a cover thus compresses for proper fitting around the auricle and lobe and does not provide excess pressure in the middle portion, thereby allowing for greater comfort and control to the wearer and leaves a least part of the wearer's ear canal exposed and uncovered to facilitate hearing while affixed.
