A low‑profile, ultra‑light race‑day cap built for speed and breathability.
The Fractel R‑Series Cap is designed for runners who prefer a sleek, low‑profile fit that feels fast, minimal, and barely‑there. With its ultra‑light construction, ventilated mesh panels, and moisture‑wicking fabrics, it’s made for high‑output days where breathability and weight matter most.
The R‑Series sits lower and closer to the head than Fractel’s mid‑profile styles, giving it a streamlined feel that stays put at speed. Every colourway — from core staples to limited seasonal drops — shares the same trusted build. The cap comes in one size with an adjustable rear closure, allowing for a personalised fit while maintaining its signature low‑profile shape.
