Running Hats
Protect your noggin with a piece of kit that's both stylish and functional. Not to be confused with your standard ball caps, these running caps offer athletes greater breathability, lightweight performance and will have you looking great and feeling cool from start to the finish line.
Not all hats are built to go the distance. Thankfully, our huge range of Running Hats at Aid Station have got you covered.
Running hats, like those from Fractel, rnnr, and Ciele, are specifically designed for performance, unlike your everyday baseball cap. They're lightweight, breathable, and made to handle sweat, sun, and long miles. Think moisture-wicking materials, quick-dry tech, built-in UPF sun protection, and packable designs that bounce back, no matter how many times you crush them in your bag. Plus, they’re often built with runner-friendly details like reflective logos and ventilated panels. In short: they’re gear, not just an accessory. Once you try one, your old cotton cap doesn’t stand a chance.
