Light, breathable, and designed with runners in mind, the Airlite Pro Cap is a smart companion for warm-weather miles.
Inov8 says:
Ultra lightweight and packable, the AIRLITE PRO CAP is the perfect choice for training and racing. With a reshape-able peak board, the AIRLITE PRO CAP weighs just 28g (1oZ) and packs down very small. This makes it easy to store in a waist pack, vest or even the stash pocket on a pair of running shorts or tights. The running cap benefits from a soft-feel, fast wicking headband which will keep you cool and comfortable all day long. As well as this, reflective detailing on the front and the side of the cap will mean you’re visible when running in urban environments.
The AIRLITE PRO CAP also has an elastic toggle adjustment at the rear, so you can quickly find your perfect fit. The cap's peak is machine washable too. For best results we recommend washing at 30oC and not to use fabric softener. If you’re looking for a small, lightweight running cap, the AIRLITE PRO CAP ticks all the boxes. Comfortable to wear and easy to carry, it’s a staple piece of kit that’s indispensable during warmer months.
Our Verdict
Weighing just 30g, this cap is impressively light without feeling flimsy. The updated reshapeable peak adds practical adjustability, while the soft, fast-wicking headband keeps sweat under control. I found the fit easy to dial in, thanks to the rear toggle, and the low-profile construction sits securely without digging in. Breathability is excellent, and the fabric dries fast between outings. Reflective accents offer a welcome nod to safety in low light, and the whole thing folds down small enough to stash in a vest or pocket without fuss. Made from durable 100% nylon, it’s held up well to repeated use. For runners who value simplicity, ventilation, and minimal bulk, this cap earns its place in the summer kit.
