Run Through Anything with Ciele Athletics' Winter 2023 Headwear
Cold weather-ready iterations of the brand’s famed running caps that offer both warmth and breathability.
by Ross Dwyer · HypebeastRunning caps may largely be considered summertime attire, lightweight, moisture-wicking pieces of headwear whose technology makes them perfect for both strenuous physical activity and leisurely lampin’. Ciele Athletics, however — makers of some of the world’s best-known running headwear and a frequent collaborative partner of brands like norda and Salomon — knows no offseason, as indicated by its recently-released Winter 2023 collection. Across three styles, the collection offers a mixture of warmth and breathability aimed at both hard-core runners who don’t mind storming through the snow and commuters looking to keep their dome from getting chilly.
The first style in the collection is the GOCap Sherpa, a sherpa fleece-covered iteration of Ciele’s signature GOCap. Next is the CW CRWCap WND SC. Though its name is undeniably a mouthful, its purpose is clear: it’s a water-and-wind-resistant hat with ear flaps for additional warmth. Last but not least is the CW BKTHat, a bucket hat with fold-away merino ear flaps and COOLMatic PLUS fabric with sweat-wicking properties. Each is machine-washable, offers reflective details for visibility, and is equipped with foldable brims for easy packing, as well as backed by Ciele’s signature million-mile guarantee.
All three styles are available in multiple colors on the Ciele webstore. Prices range from $65-$85.
