If you want a lightweight running cap that doesn't ask you to think twice about matching it to your kit, the Black Diamond Distance LT Hat in Black/Black is the easy answer. Weighing in at just 51 grams, this ultralight cap is designed for runners who feel every gram on a long day out, and the mesh side panels do the real work of keeping your head cool when the pace or the temperature climbs. A short brim keeps the sun in check without getting in your way on rough ground.
  • Barely there weight, so it's easy to forget you've got it on
  • Mesh panels vent heat where you need it most, right at the temples and crown
  • Short peak keeps sun out of your eyes without narrowing your view
  • Packs down small enough to disappear into a running vest pocket
  • Simple all-black colourway that pairs with pretty much any kit
  • Weight: 51g
  • Construction: 5-panel
  • Front and visor: 100% polyester, lightweight woven
  • Sides and top: 100% polyester, lightweight breathable mesh
  • Closure: adjustable elastic buckle strap
  • Size: one size fits most (unisex)
  • Colourway: Black/Black
  • Warm-weather road or trail running where breathability is the priority
  • Racing and fastpacking setups where every gram in the pack counts
  • Runners who want one hat that works with every other piece of kit they own
  • Less suited to cold or wet winter runs, where a Black Diamond Coefficient Beanie will actually keep the warmth in

Plenty of running caps look breathable without really delivering on it. This one does. The mesh panels are generous enough to genuinely shift air, not just decorate the sides, and the woven front panel keeps its shape run after run instead of collapsing into a sweaty mess. We hear from customers doing back-to-back training blocks in warmer months that it's the cap they reach for first, purely because it doesn't add to the discomfort when things get hot. The black colourway is also just an easy sell, it doesn't clash with anything and it hides trail dust better than the lighter options.
