Really good stuff guys. The On cap is on my list. Been wearing the Outdoor Research Swift Cap and it's fantastic.
Great reviews. No cap.
Love what you guys do! I would love it if you guys would do a video all about running socks, and different socks you wear for different runs
Solid recommendations all around, but kudos to Kieran for his Boco KIITD cap!
love that waterproof Montane cap - they do a good slightly heavier Fleet one too.
Buff Pack Speed Caps - light, breathable and very comfortable as the stretchy material conforms to you…. Perfect!
Yes, love the Buff running caps (I own three). One of my favorites.
@@timsmith7816 Same! Not that I have a general Buff addiction! 😂
Ciele are by far my favorite. Light, great fit, and terrific sweat absorption.
Your dentist needs to share the link to that KIITD hat. Seriously.
Update: I’ve found their website but they haven’t got sales available. Kieran, if you could twist their arm, I’ll buy your replacement KIITD hat. 😁

I also want one 🤘🏼
@@thepatternforms859 you didn't watch the video or you had the sound off
Yep agree that Fractel hats are good. My head circumference is about 63cm, so it's pretty much the only hat brand I can wear! All other recommendations for smaller, shorter people are useless in my case!!
which hats are good for large/XL size heads? I find that almost running hats are made for smaller heads unfortunately even the adjustable type.
Does the rubber brim on the Melin Pace Hydro leave marks on your head?
I have half of these hats and my favorite by far is the Brooks Propel Mesh hat. Great for the summer and has held up well for three years.
Brooks gets some serious credibility for their clothing!
My asics cap has a fabric similar to a towel around as a sweat stop, disadvantage’s that that fabric will get soggy. Looking for one that really breathes the sweat away and not gathers it as a big slosh on your head.
Disappointed not to have a "RRRRRRRRunnnning Caps!" sting. Missed opportunity 😔
Would've been nice to see Attain run caps given some coverage. I think Kieran's KITTD hat has a similar background. Would much prefer to give my money for an overpriced hat to a good cause, Attain give all profits to CALM (campaign against living miserably) I've got the On cap and there's very little difference to that and the decathlon models for about £8
Not gonna lie, I thought Mike would have some nasty neons in there… but he resisted haha
Still haven't used anything that's displaced the Patagonia Duckbill as my #1.
Inov 8 makes a good cap. Surprised you didn’t include it.
what are the top 3 for rain ? =)
Soar hat👍
I prefer a bucket hat.
yes stops my ears getting sun burnt
The TOR, Brav & Fractel caps are basically all Ciele knock offs.
No Ciele caps guys come on 🤷🏻♂️
Which one for big heads? (62cm 🍉)
Fractel M-Series accommodate 55cm to 63cm heads
I prefer a headband to a cap so I don't overheat
I like the Saysky stuff, just don't like the obnoxious branding on so much of their stuff.
What is the purpose of running hats?
keep sun out of your eyes
@@subhanshah5511Also keeps sun off your head. (Not all of us have hair to protect our heads from sunburn...😂)
@@michaeltanel3815 well most of my running hats are mesh
36 pounds? That's pretty heavy! All kidding aside, are these UPF50+ rated?
Visor in the summer. Not cap 🤷♂️
where can you buy the kick it in the dick cap from please?
If this video doesn’t include RNNR hats, the absolute best running hat brand I’ve worn in 20 years of running, I don’t want to watch it.
Sayski 💀
None of the ladies get to review caps? Some of us are looking for ideas for our ladies! Help a poor, clueless husband out, guys!
