Choose Your Headwear
Cycling caps: classic brim deflects sun and rain; low-profile fit disappears under the lid.
Headbands: sweat control in heat; thermal versions cover ears without bulk.
Skull caps: full-coverage wicking for tempo days and cool starts.
Balaclavas: targeted wind block and insulation for deep winter and long descents.
Temperature & Conditions Guide
75°F+ (24°C+): lightweight headband for sweat management and minimal coverage.
55–75°F (13–24°C): breathable cap or skull cap for sun + sweat control.
35–55°F (2–13°C): thermal headband or thermal cap; add a wind shell for descents.
Below 35°F (2°C): balaclava or insulated cap; pair with seam-sealed outerwear on storm days from Wet Weather.
Helmet Compatibility & Fit
Low-profile designs should sit smooth with no pressure points; ear coverage stays put in the drops; cap brims won’t block vision when you’re on the hoods or in the drops. If you’re between sizes, check our Size & Fit Guide.
FAQ
Cap vs. headband—how do I choose?
Headbands excel at sweat control and ventilation; caps add a brim for sun/rain and a touch more coverage.
Do these fit under any helmet?
Yes—pieces are designed for under-helmet use; adjust retention slightly if you switch from cap to balaclava.
Are winter options windproof?
Many thermal pieces feature wind-blocking panels at the forehead/ears; for full storm days, add a waterproof shell from Wet Weather.
How do I wash cycling headwear?
Close fasteners, wash cold, skip fabric softener, and air-dry to preserve stretch, wicking, and weatherproof finishes.
