Headwear for Athletes

Whether you're running or cycling, the right headwear helps regulate body temperature, manage sweat, and protect against the elements. At XMiles, our range includes caps, visors, beanies, headbands, and neck sleeves—designed for performance, comfort, and style.

Protection From the Elements

• Sun: Caps and visors shield your face from UV rays and reduce sun glare.
• Rain: Quick-drying materials help keep you dry during wet-weather sessions.
• Cold: Thermal beanies and headbands help retain heat during winter runs.
• Wind: Tighter-fitting headbands and beanies offer added protection from wind chill.

Many of our running caps and headbands feature moisture-wicking materials to absorb sweat and keep it out of your eyes, helping you stay focused and comfortable throughout your session.
