Castelli Summer Headband

I just completed a two hour indoor ride and the headband worked way better than I had expected. I found that it was best worn just barely over my eyebrows. Normally, my eyes continually sting with sweat. Today, I had some drips off the nose but zero in the eyes. It�s like magic.

The product is thin and light, so it would even work for weight weenies. Of course, it would get much heavier with use on a hot day. It�s very thin, so it fits nicely under a helmet and might even make it more comfortable.

It seems like very little material for the money, but given how well it keeps the sweat from my eyes, it�s a bargain.

Why did I wait so long to try these, the caps just kept all my heat in, this headband works like a charm. No more sweaty eyes!

Lightweight, kept my hair off my face, but didn't keep sweat from rolling down my face.

This headband may be good for summer rides, as it fits well under a helmet. But its absorbing/wicking qualities are not the best. My older Castelli headband works better.

I now have 3 of these and they work great for me in keeping sweat out of my eyes.

Wicks away sweat well and top of head stays cool compared to full skull caps.

No sweat in the eyes even on a multi hour hot ride. Very thin under the helmet

Effectively captures and dissipates sweat in a humid NYC summer before it seeps into the helmet pads. Keeps the helmet smell free, keeps sweat out of your eyewear when you hit a bump in the road.

In the midst of your typical east coast humid heat wave, I can go full gas knowing my sweat won't migrate to my helmet pads with this headband. Little things sometimes are worth a review.
