Get Your Custom Cycling Caps!
Things to think about before you contact me (there may be a quiz later)...Styles
- Four split-panel cycling cap
- Four split-panel cycling cap with earflaps to keep your ears cozy in cold weather
Fabric
- 100% cotton twills, wools, and knits: fabrics I currently have on hand.
- You may supply your own fabric.
Ribbon
(Optional) Grosgrain ribbon is available in dozens of colors and several widths. See grosgrain ribbon swatches here. Ribbon can be sewn on the crown and brim, or just the crown. Or just the brim. One ribbon, two ribbons, straight, diagonally... there are so many possibilities!Sizing
Measure the widest circumference of your head wrapping tape so it touches both your brow and occiput (that bony "knob" on the back of your head). You can use the chart below for reference and order by size range, or you can tell me your head measurement and I'll make your cap to fit.| KID | SMALL | MEDIUM | LARGE | |
| hat size | 6 1/8" - 6 3/8" | 6 5/8" - 6 7/8" | 7 1/8" - 7 3/8" | 7 5/8"- 7 7/8" |
| head (cm) | 49 - 51cm | 52 - 55cm | 56 - 59cm | 60 - 63cm |
| head (inches) | 19.25" - 20" | 20.5" - 21.75" | 22" - 23.25" | 23.5" - 24.75" |
Trims
Traditional cap sweatbands can be sewn with white 1.25" soft elastic band or 3/4" cotton twill tape (black or white). Caps with earflaps have twill tape sweatbands. All caps with twill tape sweatbands have elastic in the back for snug fit. You can specify your preference in bill length (the default is 5cm). As a point of reference, most Pace caps have a 6cm bill, Rapha caps have a 5cm bill, and Chuey caps have a 4cm bill. I also make soft-billed caps (just ask).Pricing
