Built for performance. The Performance Skull Cap will become a welcome addition to your race day kit and your hiking gear
Vaga says:
Introducing the VÅGA Performance Skull Cap. Over 2 years of development went into the creation of this Skull Cap. It is a piece of kit which you so often have to carry to meet race requirements, but seldom need to wear. That said, when emergency strikes, the Skull Cap will perform. Micro fleeced backed for a reason, that reason being, it's warm when you need it to be. Stylistically different from other variants on the market due to the extra room on the crown. The result means that whilst the cap remains compressed in circumference, it is far more comfortable than anything else out there.
As the name suggests, the VÅGA Skull Cap is built for performance; racing and competition being its primary focus. Constructed to be packed up small enough to barely impede load capacity, and will meet all race day kit requirements. Outside of the race world, though, here you have an accessory which will serve you well as a daily miler in the colder months due to its micro fleece backing.
Our Verdict
The VAGA Performance Skull Cap weighs 39 g and features a micro fleece lining for steady insulation during winter walking or running. The crown has more room than many tight skull caps and sits comfortably. The fit is snug without feeling restrictive, and the reflective branding adds a touch of visibility in low light. Breathability feels moderate, so I reach for it mainly on colder days rather than during high-output climbs in mild conditions. It is lightweight and very compact when packed.
