Worn flat on the forehead as a headband, the Sweat Diversion Band diverts perspiration from the upper forehead and away from the eyes using laminated neoprene. Laminated neoprene is a commercially available, low cost, off-the-shelf material. Laminated neoprene possesses the required capillary and hydraulic properties to absorb liquid perspiration on the forehead, and laterally divert the liquid perspiration to cylindrical outflow lengths bending downward behind the ears. The ends of the headband are folded extensions of the laminated neoprene and provide an optional means to secure the headband to the head. The top of the Sweat Diversion Band features an angular cut through the entire cross-section of laminated neoprene. Sloping toward the head, this feature facilitates absorption of the liquid into the inner wicking fabric worn against the skin. Liquid perspiration is then transported and eliminated below the ears.
