So I'm on the lookout for a lightweight, waterproof hat/cap that will cover my ears and can be worn under my helmet. This has proven surprisingly difficult to find.
The most common search result is the seal skinz cap ( http://www.wiggle.co.uk/sealskinz-waterproof-cycling-cap-1 ) but it doesn't cover the ears.
The second most common is also a seal skinz cap which does cover the ears ( http://www.wiggle.co.uk/sealskinz-reflective-belgian-style-cycling-cap/ ) but that looks extremely toasty under a helmet.
After these two it gets a little more difficult. I came across one by Rapha (http://www.rapha.cc/gb/en/shop/deep-winter-hat/product/DWH01) but it's £60, looks warm and is apparently only water resistant.
Then I found this Castelli hat (http://www.bobshop.com/en/Women-s/H...d=Google/UK/PRODUKTERWEITERUNG/castelli/30839) which seems to fit the bill, but it's almost £60, has no reviews because it's just been released and I can't try it on for size anywhere because no one stocks it. Does anyone have any experience with it?
Finally I found this Mavic cap (http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/...gclid=CMP4uK6I_8cCFYu6GwoduRQNtA&gclsrc=aw.ds) which seems to fit all of my criteria but like the Castelli it's only just been released so there's no reviews and I can't try for size.
So, does anyone have any experience with any of these, or have any alternate recommendations?
Thanks in advance!
