Headwear and scarves

Cycling hats and scarves - Protection and comfort all year round

Cycling helmets and scarves are small but important accessories that can significantly improve riding comfort and protection. They are designed to complement the use of a helmet, providing protection from sun, wind, cold and moisture. Thanks to their technical materials and versatile design, the headgear and scarves are suitable for both hot summer and cold winter conditions.

This equipment can be used alone or under a helmet and adapts to different needs depending on weather conditions and riding style.

Why are hats and scarves important?

When cycling, head and neck protection helps maintain comfort and performance whatever the weather conditions. In summer, they protect from the sun and wick away moisture, while in winter they insulate from the heat and protect from the chill. They also prevent sweat from running down your face and improve your riding experience.

• Versatility: Works as a headgear, scarf, mask or collar protector as needed.
• Breathability: Technical materials wick away moisture and keep your skin dry.
