Featherweight, sweat-wicking running hats that stay put from mile one.

Running Hats

Style Inspiration

A good running hat keeps sun and sweat out of your eyes without adding weight or bouncing at pace. Our running hats are built for exactly that, from a lightweight running cap to a packable sun hat for trail days.

Shop by style:

  • Runners Original ($49): hydrophobic, water-repellent fabric that wicks sweat, plus a hidden pocket for a card or cash.
  • Ultra Lite Hat ($35): featherlight and moisture-wicking with extra airflow, plus an adjustable back strap for a secure fit.
  • UPF 50+ Bucket Hat ($49): 360-degree sun coverage for your face, ears and neck that crushes flat and springs back into shape.

What makes a running hat different
