Patagonia R1 Headband
A stretchy, lightweight headband to protect ears, neck and forehead.
Slogging up skin paths or trail running over passes in nippy fall weather ? this headband keeps sweat out of your eyes during the climb and adds lightweight warmth on the descent. Redesigned this season, it features stretchy R1? fabric made with recycled polyester content for packable warmth, excellent moisture transfer and next-to-skin comfort. Low-grid insulation on the outside reduces bulk and speeds evaporation.

- New, stretchy R1? Regulator fabric (made from 100% recycled polyester) on the under-side with 2% spandex provides excellent warmth, moisture management and breathable comfort
- Fabric on the outside reduces bulk while still providing warmth

worth every penny
I use this a lot when I run in cold weather. My ears are always the coldest part of my body. A hat is usually too much and doesn't cover my ears as well. Since this headband actually has different sizes, the fit is quite good. It is still stretchy and fits over my ears just right. It absorbs sweat and keeps my ears warm and relatively dry. I've washed it many times already and it is holding up very well.
