Travel light, sleep tight!

Imagine a travel hat so comfortable, so cleverly designed, that it transforms your travel naps into actual rest. Introducing the Nap Hat, the ultimate sleep-on-the-go solution for every traveler who’s tired of neck cramps, glaring lights, and endless head bobs.
With the Nap Hat, you don’t just wear a hat; you wear a compact sleep system designed to turn any journey into a relaxing escape. Here’s how the Nap Hat changes the travel game:
Built-In Eye Mask – No More Light Interruptions

The Nap Hat features a sleek, hidden eye mask that tucks away inside the hat when you don’t need it and pulls out smoothly when you do. Say goodbye to digging around for a separate eye mask or dealing with uncomfortable, tight elastic bands that don’t fit! The Nap Hat’s eye mask is gentle, soft, and perfectly positioned to block out all light. Just pull it down and feel your eyes instantly relax in complete darkness, whether you’re on a plane, in the backseat of a car, or waiting for a delayed flight.
Head Restraint System – Stop the Head-Bob Once and for All

Forget those clunky neck pillows and awkward attempts to prop your head up on a window. The Nap Hat’s innovative Head Restraint System solves the classic travel nap issue—the dreaded head bob. Built right into the back of the hat, this adjustable restraint strap doubles as the hat’s size adjustment feature, making it both discreet and practical. When it’s time to rest, simply pull out the strap and wrap it around your headrest for secure, steady support that keeps your head in place, no matter how bumpy the ride. Finally, sleep soundly and wake up refreshed instead of sore!
Effortless Style Meets Functional Comfort

This isn’t just a hat with a gimmick. The Nap Hat is crafted with a classic, stylish design that suits every travel situation—from red-eye flights to road trips, long-haul train rides, and even quick naps at the office. Lightweight, breathable, and easy on the eyes, it’s a hat you’ll want to wear even when you’re not napping. And because the restraint strap doubles as a size adjustment, the Nap Hat can be worn by anyone, comfortably.
Ultimate Travel Essential – Replace Your Travel Pillow, Eye Mask, and Hat
Why carry extra gear when one hat does it all? The Nap Hat is designed to consolidate your travel essentials into one convenient, easy-to-carry item. Travel pillows are bulky, and traditional eye masks get lost in bags or take up space—but the Nap Hat has everything you need in one simple, lightweight design. It’s the only travel accessory that keeps you stylish while delivering all the rest-inducing benefits you crave.

Concept to Prototype
Want to know how we got here? It all started with a problem. While on a road trip my daughter was trying to sleep in the back seat. She was bobbing her head uncomfortably, and I wanted to place a tether on her head, but I was worried it could slip down to her neck and make it difficult to breath. That’s when it hit me; why not attach it to a hat for safety and comfort? So I drew a quick concept sketch.

With a design in mind I made some Prototypes. Here’s a video where I was working on the original prototype out of some off the shelf parts. You can follow my progress on YouTube to see what I am working on.

Finally, after waiting a few months, I got our first production prototype! This was made with the same machines and tools as the final hat will be made with. Minor changes can still be made, but this is close to the final design for production. I already communicated some changes and am waiting for the next prototype.
