Review by DerekhskiReviewed 8/17/2023by DerekhskiPortland aka Puddketown OR. Summer happiness Totally keeps sweat from running into my eyes. Pick up two new ones just before a Marin Headlands trip, temps in the 90�s riding around Mt. Tam. Never felt over heated but got the benefit of no sweat running into eyes

Review by PacoReviewed 7/6/2023by PacoDoes a good job of minimizing sweat dripping onto sunglassesI've worn the Castelli skull cap on several high humidity/hot days and it has done a good job of keeping my eyes and sunglasses clear. I think it works best if you place the front of the skull cap above the helmet headband.

Review by JoeReviewed 6/11/2019by JoeSacramento4 of 4 customers found this review helpful.Great light capMy favorite band is Rush. One of their old songs I identify with more and more is I Think I'm Going Bald. If I don't ride with a cap, I get crazy vent tan lines or burns on my skull. This cap does the trick. It's light and comfortable and keeps the sweat out of my eyes. I've had one for a couple of years with no noticeable wear. Highly recommended

Review by AnonymousReviewed 6/26/2017by AnonymousCompetitive RacerAtlanta, GA5 of 5 customers found this review helpful.Perfect warm to cool weather head coverI wear this scullcap under my helmet. It is thin, it doesn't bulk up and make the helmet fit tight. Although it is designed for warm weather, I find it helps cut a bit of chill on cool days too. It does not go over the ears. For me, it's a good piece to wear from high 50's through low 70's. Since it does retain a small amount of heat, I tend not to wear the cap when it's really hot, although, it is a trade off from a sun burned scalp (as I'm bald).

Review by msknopfReviewed 10/25/2021by msknopfCycling EnthusiastNew York, NY2 of 2 customers found this review helpful.Upgrade from headband, keeps sweat off my eyesLooking for a product to upgrade from headband, which were not doing a good enough job absorbing and wicking sweat during summer rides. Tried a few summer weight skullcaps and found that the Castelli skullcap works the best. Does a great job absorbing and wicking sweat and keeping cool, no longer does sweat build up and run into my eyes as with a headband. Fits well under helmet, like that it covers my bald head from the sun. Tried Giro and PI skullcaps as well, liked Castelli the best.

Review by AnonymousReviewed 5/11/2023by Anonymous1 of 1 customers found this review helpful.Great cap for year round use. This cap keeps the sweat away from your eyes, keeps the sun from burning the top of your head and keeps you warmer on cool days and a little cool during the summer time.

Review by nhmtnbkrReviewed 7/6/2021by nhmtnbkrCycling EnthusiastNashua, NH1 of 1 customers found this review helpful.Great skullcapOverall this is a great skullcap for wearing under a road helmet. It catches and wicks sweat very well, even on the hottest of days and long rides exceeding 50 miles. Experienced very little dripping even when sweating up a storm. Fit is excellent and stretches well to accommodate even my large noggin, and it doesn't create pressure points under a helmet, which is rare for most skullcaps. Pretty pricey even on sale for a skull cap IMO, regardless of how good this is.

Review by JosephReviewed 6/19/2020by Josephsunny central floridaVery well fitThe skull cap I purchased was well worth the purchase - the cap makes my helmet fit snug and the helmet does not move around as well as providing the sun cover through the helmet holes. I really like the way the cap keeps the sweat from my head off my glasses.

Review by bikerdadReviewed 8/22/2021by bikerdadCycling EnthusiastGalesburg,ILcastelli qualtiyI do not like wearing anything under my helmet. I have lost most of my hair so I have no choice if I want to avoid the sun tan stripes. This skull cap is comfortable and it takes hours before I really feel it. Besides the castelli quality it fits the best of any skull cap I have purchased.

Review by AnonymousReviewed 6/28/2021by AnonymousCycling EnthusiastNapa, CA2 of 2 customers found this review helpful.Superior to other skull capsI have several skull caps from other companies and hate how when they get soaked I get sweat on my glasses. That is because they put a terry cloth patch on the forehead. The Castelli Skullcap is a sweat absorbing headband with an lightweight top. Sweat stayed away from my glasses and it was cool as temperatures reached low 80's. Good product.

Review by AnonymousReviewed 6/10/2021by AnonymousCycling EnthusiastPortland, OR1 of 1 customers found this review helpful.New FavoriteThis skullcap is hands down my new favorite. I am bald, so the flat seams and terrific fit are a big deal. The skullcap is comfortable, thin (doesn't interfere with helmet fit), and wicks moisture more effectively than any other skullcap I've used - and I've used many.

Review by PACB4Reviewed 8/5/2022by PACB4Cycling EnthusiastPhiladelphia, PABetter seams and comfortCompared to another skull cap that leaves a lasting mark due to thicker seams, the Castelli fits tight and leaves no marks even on my big head.
