Ciele FSTCap SC - Short Brim - EQ - Iconic Bar SL

Race-day caps have a problem. Most are either too minimal — no structure, no durability — or they add bulk you don't want when you're chasing a PR or grinding through a long training day.

The FST fit from Ciele was designed specifically for this gap: low-profile, fast, and built to disappear on your head. Here's what most athletes don't realize — the right short brim cap isn't just comfortable, it's a performance tool.

The Ciele FSTCap SC Short Brim is the minimalist race cap that delivers serious technical performance without a single unnecessary gram.

TUFFtek Canvas That Earns Its Place — The structured TUFFtek recycled canvas shell gives this cap shape and durability without adding weight. It holds its form through hot, sweaty long runs and washes without going soft or losing structure — the kind of durability you want in a cap you'll actually rely on.

Maximum Breathability Where It Counts Most — COOLmatic PLUS MIKRAmesh covers the crown and headband to pull heat and moisture away from your head fast, while anti-odor treated open mesh side panels add an extra layer of ventilation. Together, they create an air-moving system that stays ahead of your effort even when pace climbs.

Short Brim. Fast Fit. No Fuss. — The pliable SOFTcurved short brim stays out of your sightline on the track and road while providing enough sun coverage for training runs. A quick-adjust back closure dials in your fit in seconds — no fiddling with snaps mid-run.

COOLmatic PLUS MIKRAmesh is Ciele's moisture-wicking and anti-odor mesh system — the fabric moves sweat away from your head through capillary action (think: it pulls moisture outward so it can evaporate faster), while a built-in odor-fighting finish keeps things fresh across back-to-back training days.

How to Use the Ciele FSTCap SC Short Brim

Fit: One size (S/M, ~56.5 cm). Use the quick-adjust back closure to dial your fit before heading out — snug enough to stay put at pace, not so tight it creates pressure.

Best for: Road running, track workouts, road races, and any training where a low-profile, lightweight cap is the move. The short brim is intentional — ideal for athletes who find standard brims intrusive.

Care: Machine wash cold, hang to dry. No softener, no tumble dry. At 38 grams, it's one of the lightest caps in the Ciele lineup — treat it right and it'll go the distance.

Speed-focused runners and road racers who want a cap that disappears during hard efforts have made the low-profile FST fit a go-to for intervals, tempos, and race day alike.

This isn't just another running cap. This is 38 grams of race-ready performance that gets out of your way and lets you run.
