I now have six of these! First was in orange, which led my wife to say, "Why Orange?" So I bought one in her favorite color, red, then blue, then white, then black, then lime green. Not just because she likes color. The hat is extremely comfortable, light weight, and helps in sweat absorbtion. It also washes up beautifully. I've been running for many years, and very few hats have been right--too stiff, too heavy, hard to clean, no sweat band etc. This one pretty much does it all--and the colors really are great. I've cleaned my drawer of all my hats except my marathon commemoratives. Not that I really ever wear them.

I ordered and received the "Limeade" color, and noticed immediately that it was too small for my 58cm head. Having had other Headsweats hats that fit me perfectly, I called the Headsweats headquarters to inquire. A helpful woman explained to me that their colors of Limeade, Pink, Hot Pink, and purple (Royal?) are women's sized (2cm smaller).

So I will need to return this one, and too bad as I loved the color. Shame on Amazon for not identifying the men/women sized hats so we could order accordingly.

UPDATE: On October 15, 2013 I emailed Jeff Bezos and explained the problem with men's vs women's sizing for these hats. Today on October 29 I see that Amazon has put the women's sized hats into a separate listing, http://www.amazon.com/Headsweats-Womens-Performance-Running-Outdoor/dp/B00G50FSFG/ref=cts_ap_1_fbt

Odd looking hat.. barely fits over my head and I wear 7 3/8 or 7 1/2.

Honest reviews on Headsweats Race Performance Running/Outdoor Sports Hat (One Size)

I paid US$18,45 (shipping included) for this cap in LIMEADE color. I have liked it a LOT. I've been playing tennis with it for 3 months in hot, hot weather.

Pro

Material: 100% Coolmax polyester. It is SUPERB LIGHT + 100% breathable;

VERY good, durable, nice and elegant.

The cap design with a flat front panel makes a great fit over the head, fits as a glove, no wrinkles, adjusts fine.

Interior of the cap: the "Coolmax fabric terry band" is one of the best terry cloth sweatbands in comparison with all my others caps.

CoLoRs are GREAT and after 3 months of intense use the color hasn't fade.

Con

Best sun protection offered by this hat is in front part of the face, but lateral is not so good SO don't forget to use good sunscreen protection.

SIZE: My opinion is that it is for an "adult average head size", and better fit is between M XL (I am L size).

I prefer hand washing this cap to protect the plastic clip, but them can be machine washable in warm water, delicate cycle, with non-chlorine bleach & non use of fabric softeners. AND AVOID contact with velcro (can damage the material).

I play tennis & I own over 15 caps (Adidas, Nike, ASICs, others) and now I have two (2) Headsweats hats that have become top favorites when I am playing in a sunny day, because them offer MUCH more sun protection than conventional tennis caps AND are MUCH MORE breathable for SuRe!

It this review was helpful please v..., thanks!

I bought this hat (in plain white) as an alternative to the Halo visor I had purchased earlier. While the Halo works very well at keeping sweat out of my eyes, the visor is constructed in a way that in not terribly appealing looking when I wear it. The Halo II headband alone option works very well, especially under a cycling helmet. Back to this hat, which fits well, is good looking, but does not perform any better than any other ball-type hat I wear when running. I sweat profusely, and in the hot, humid Louisville summers we have here, this product just does not perform as advertised to my satisfaction. If you tend to sweat buckets like I do, I'd look elsewhere.
