    Did not realize that. Thought they were long gone like the Wabi Woolens.

    Blow up and pin a picture of M. Bartoli on your wall. When you achieve that position, stop. Until then, stretch, ride, stretch, ride, eat less, and ride more.

    Yes, the white/light blue Zanc mutt hats are made by Vermarc.

    Love my on one merino beanie, it's very thin, warm, and soft. Often times I start riding and think oh crap I forgot my helmet and I'm just wearing a beanie, but then I check and the helmet is there. My other go to hat is a 3t cap made by castelli that has molded itself to my head shape over the course of a year or so. I will wear it until I can't. Love cycling caps In general. I have a yellow vintage campy hat that's too small for me if anyone has to have it hit me up.

    Too many hats, but they pretty much all get used regularly, with a few spares in the mix. You'll notice an abundance of Zank hats.

    I'll throw my hat in the Chuey Brand bin, great stuff. My favorite all-around cap is by Fifo Cycle. Mine's hemp construction and very comfortable. Probably the best fitting cap I own, although at this point it's probably ending it's life cycle. Too many grease stains on the brim, too much salt on top.

    She did. Unfortunately Caroline has retired from the cap-making business. You can still buy patterns if you fancy making your own.

    Another baldy here so I wear a cap on every ride.

    I like the Pace caps, 3 panels with the centre stripe, and a sort of towelling sweatband built in. Time to get a couple of new ones actually.

    Can't stand having the bill interrupt my vision so I wear the caps backwards with the bill flipped up so it doesn't dig into my neck. Not exactly PRO but it works for me.

    Update: Too Tall helped sort me out with a proper size Walz Vsalon cap. Fits like a dream. I just wore it on an hour and a half ride at 80 degrees, well above my typical threshold for wearing a cap. It was comfortable, wicked sweat rather than getting soggy and provided just enough shade I never even put my sunglasses on. Believe the hype folks, this cap is awesome.
