Best Skullcap for the Summer

I've tried many skullcaps to keep the sweat off my brow and so far this is the best one out there. It fits tight and keep the sweat from dripping on my face as I ride long miles in the sun all summer long.

Thank you for your feedback.

Better seams and comfort

Compared 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.

Thank you for your feedback.

Runs Small

This cap is a little small so if you have a large head it might not be right for you.

Thank you for your feedback.

Works as described

For hot rides or long trainer sessions this is the ticket

Keeps the heavy sweat out of my eyes so I can see especially at the finish of a touch Time Trial

Thank you for your feedback.

Very comfortable

I always wear my helmet and its more comfortable when its not just helmet to head. These (got a black & a white) work great. Like not wearing anything - not hotter but the helmet is more comfortable.

Thank you for your feedback.

Lightweight, fits really nice, great product!

Really like this product from Castelli. I wear a skull cap for 2 reasons, 1 I do not like seat in my eyes and 2 I am bald and need SPF protection. This product does both and is lightweight and comfortable on my head.

Thank you for your feedback.

Best Summer Cap Available!

I've tried many summer caps over the years and this one is my Favorite as it keeps the sweat off and last longer on your rides. I will continue to buy this cap until something better comes along.

Thank you for your feedback.

good value. Does what I wanted it to do

I have little hair on the head anymore so I waneted this skull cap to catch the sweat and keep it out of my eyes. IT WORKS. I was afraid it would be too hot but I rode in 90 degree weather the other day and seemed fine. Was a little warm on the head but NO sweat in eyes..and that is good -)

Thank you for your feedback.

Too small for a medium head.

I do not understand the good reviews. I have a medium sized head no hair and it doesn't come close to fitting.

I have not tried it based on that.

Thank you for your feedback.

NOT THE BEST IDEA

WENT FOR A RIDE ON A ON A REALLY HOT HUMID DAY AND AFTER AN HOUR THE CAP WAS SOAKED AND SO WERE THE HELMET PADS...NOT SO SURE BUT MAYBE I'D OF BEEN BETTER OFF WITHOUT IT...THINK I'LL KEEP IT FOR COOLER RIDES.

PS IT FITS JUST FINE.

Thank you for your feedback.

Necessary for bald men

After being burned through the helmet I always wear a skullcap. It also helps keep most of the sweat out of my eyes.

Thank you for your feedback.

Works well

This skullcap fits well. I like the design with no tying knot at the back. It makes it more comfortable under the helmet, and looks more streamlined. Works well to wick the sweat from your head and prevent it from dripping in your eyes.

Thank you for your feedback.

Best skull cap I've owned for temperatures above 50 degrees.

This skull cap does an excellent job of wicking away sweat and keeping it out of your eyes, even on high output rides in humid 95 degree conditions. Airflow through the top is also excellent so no over heating from trapped heat. Its low volume adds virtually no bulk under your helmet and the trim-free design does not leave you with a fossil forehead after your ride. I plan to purchase another one.

Thank you for your feedback.
