What Is cycling headwear?

The answer depends on the season. A cycling cap under a helmet in summer, for instance, plays an important role in keeping sweat and sun out of your eyes and away from your face. The right headwear accessory can absorb a lot of moisture, so you’re not constantly wiping your brow and feeling that annoying sting in your eyes. Most of us wear cycling sunglasses to protect our eyes and keep from squinting, but some extra protection never goes astray.

What about the depths of winter? Winter cycling headwear such as cycling beanies or cycling bandanas will help you avoid the snap-frozen numbing sensation that can take hold that time of year, making you feel as if stalactites are forming in your helmet and working their way down!

Do different cycling caps have different purposes?

As we’ve touched on above, yes, there are different products with varying purposes, depending on what you need. If you want to keep your head warm, consider winter cycling headwear such as beanies or thermal headbands for transeason. If you’re more interested in summer cycling headwear, opt for a cycling hat with a rim that helps keep the rays out of your face. A headband is a great option for absorbing moisture so that sweat doesn’t start to drip into your eyes. Whatever you need, there’s a specific item of headgear here to get the job done for you effectively and stylishly.
