The cycling cap is one of the few pieces of kit that has never needed redesigning. The Gapette stays true to that — short peak, clean panels, no logos shouting — with the quiet French styling Café du Cycliste is known for.

What makes it worth wearing in the UAE is the fabric: breathable and fast drying, with anti-bacterial tape around the inside band so it does not turn sour after a few hot rides. A strong elasticated back holds it in place under a helmet, and it folds into a jersey pocket the moment you do not want it.

The traditional short peak

Short enough to sit under a helmet without fouling the straps, long enough to keep low sun out of your eyes. Flip it up on a climb, down on the descent — the way it has always been done.

Elasticated back

A strong elasticated band across the back means one size genuinely fits, and the cap stays put when you put a helmet on over it or take it off mid-ride.

Sweat management

65% polyester, 35% cotton — breathable and fast drying, with anti-bacterial tape lining the inside band so it stays fresh through a hot week of riding.

Pocketable

It weighs almost nothing and folds flat into a jersey pocket, so there is no reason not to take it. Sun cover when you want it, out of the way when you do not.

Who it is for

  • Anyone riding in UAE sun — the peak keeps low morning and evening light out of your eyes on Al Qudra and Nad Al Sheba.
  • Riders who sweat through headwear. The anti-bacterial lining is the reason this one lasts a season rather than a month.
  • Coffee-stop cyclists. Helmet off, cap on, and you still look like you meant it.
  • Cooler winter mornings too — a cap under the helmet takes the edge off a 6 am start.

Frequently asked

Is it one size only?
Yes. A strong elasticated band across the back does the work, so it sits securely on most head sizes without adjustment.
Does it fit under a helmet?
That is what it is designed for. The peak is short so it clears the helmet shell, and the cap is thin enough not to change how your helmet sits.
Will it get smelly?
The inside band is lined with anti-bacterial tape specifically to stop that, and the fabric dries fast. Wash it delicate and dry it flat.
Is it warm enough for winter mornings?
It takes the edge off an early start and traps a little warmth under a helmet, but it is a summer-weight cap rather than a thermal skull cap.
What is it made of?
65% polyester and 35% cotton, with Italian fabric and made in Italy.
Can I wear it off the bike?
People do. It is a plain cap with a small woven logo rather than big branding, so it reads as a cap first.
