Women’s Road & Gravel Cycling Hats & Headbands
Sun, sweat, cold—managed. Our cycling caps, headbands, skull caps, and balaclavas are built to disappear under your helmet: moisture control, wind block, and low‑profile comfort that keeps you focused on the ride, road or gravel.
Choose Your Headwear
Cycling cap: shades eyes from sun and spray while wicking fast; a classic under‑helmet layer for pace days.
Headband: minimal sweat management for heat and high‑output climbs; keeps salt out of eyes with zero bulk.
Skull cap: compact coverage for cool, windy days; fits clean under lids without pressure points.
Balaclava: full‑face protection when temps plunge; pairs cleanly with winter shells.
Neck gaiter: seal drafts and add adaptable warmth; pull up over nose on frigid descents.
Temperature & Weather Guide
70°F+: lightweight headband or airy cap to move sweat and shade eyes.

Hands & feet: match with gloves and shoe covers to complete the seal.
Fit & Sizing — Dial It In
Headwear should fit close without pinch and slide cleanly under your helmet; bills shouldn’t block vision in the drops. Use our Size & Fit Guide for sizing tips.
