I'm bald and trim what little hair I have I cut short. It's easy to get sun burn through the vents in typical helmets and sunscreen runs into your eyes. A skull cap is a must and this one works great. I previously purchased the version without the visor and purchased this one when it came on sale. Does wearing a skull cap make your head hot? Not at all, I soak it in water before a hot ride and keep it wet during the ride. The evaporation keeps my head cool, better than no cap at all. The visor extends over the top of my sunglasses and reduces glare especially in the early morning or late evening.
Was looking for a version of sun sleeves that would be a bit stretchier than my other sleeves (Specialized) and these fit the bill. They aren't as stretchy as arm warmers, which I am guessing is a function of the sun-shielding material, but they are an improvement for sure. My old ones tended to bunch at the elbows and would bind when I bent my elbows. These don't bunch much and allow for more movement, while still having good sun protection. The fabric also do seem to do a good job of cooling.
I have been using this cap, on cool to cold weather days, for 8 years. It says Rain Cap, and it works great for that. Combined with a neck gator pulled up high, this cap gives plenty of warmth by blocking wind and rain. I have a 7 1/2+ head size and this cap stretches to fit, and if needed larger than that. I have been using the P1 for over a year now and the fabric is more generous and insulating than the previous two generations. This cap is a must have for me.
