ULTRA LIGHT RUN CAPSpecially developed for intense, ultra hot and humid races. It allows a good

protection from the sun and the heat thanks to the thicker fabric on the top of the head. A ventilation mesh around the head enables a perfect evacuation of heat and perspiration. The innovation also relies on the articulated peak which enables two positions: up to open your �ield of vision, down you are fully protected.
