Subject: Best Running Hat

Hi All,

I'm seeking some recommendations on running hats. What I need is something that can do the best job at wicking away the sweat. I'm a huge fan of Halo Headbands and use them all the time. However, when it came to using their hats and visors, the headband part slid around a lot and became uncomfortable.  Because I have fair and sensitive skin I refuse to race tris or half-marathons without a hat.  For one of my last races I got a hat from Brooks that was supposed to do the job, but I noticed it really retained a lot of moisture.

What do you think works best to wick away the sweat and moisture for longer runs outside?

I love my Headsweats.  I've been using the same hat for almost 2 years.  It still wicks sweat like a champ.  I also like that I can pop it in the wash every week or two to freshen it up.
