TGIF: Kid's Custom Cycling Caps: Bicycling, New Caps Available At Hors Categorie

Bicycling, December issue.

photo Red Dots Cycling

Hey kids! Why do grown ups have all the fun wearing our stylish cycling caps? No longer.

Once again we are in Bicycling magazine - this time in the December issue, 'Kit 'Em Up.' Now, kids can wear our handmade cycling caps because kids love to bike and look good doing it. Our regular cycling caps are available in two sizes (S/M & M/L). However, we have also made kids cycling caps. And after going through many test trials to determine sizing, we have come up with one universal size for our kid's cap...

Our kid's sizing: XS (19.5 - 21 inches).

Of course, our kid's cycling caps are made exactly the same as our grown up caps with attention to detail crafted using quality materials. It's a tinier version of our regular sized caps.

Depending upon fabric availability, we can make most of the caps we have in our online shop. Cost is the same. Currently, production time for all custom caps is 4 weeks. Just convo me with your choice of cap and please include a second choice: info@reddotscycling.ca

A new shipment of caps arrived at Hors Categorie, Montreal...

Urbane: reflecting elegance, sophistication, especially in expression.

Good quality wool is hard to come by. The last time we came across quality wool was our 

Brits Cap (unfortunately discontinued). On our recent visit to our fabric supplier we came up with a new discovery. We are happy to introduce our new... Urbane Rider Cycling Cap! 

Made from Superfine 100% wool in brown/black classic plaid, this stylish cycling cap will give you a look of refinement on or off the bike. 

Proudly handmade and embroidered in our Vancouver studio.

The stylish Urbane cap includes our classic embroidered logo.

Off Route Review: Chilcotin Two-Wheeled Adventure With The L'enfer du Nord and Black Sheep Winter Caps

Recently we were contacted by cycling adventurist, Knut Kitching to sponsor cycling caps for his upcoming ride in the Chilcotin region. It's a rugged mountainous area north of Vancouver, superb for the two-wheel mountain biking folks. We are proud of our handmade caps and it just felt right to sponsor two winter caps for their mini adventure. We would like to thank Knut and Skyler for their generous review of our L'enfer du Nord and Black Sheep wool winter caps... and for giving the caps a positive spin in the Chilcotins!


Read their review here.


'Richard - we are wearing them all the time!

TGIF: Our Wool Cycling Caps: Bring On The Cold!

Fall riding is here and that means cool temperatures. The old adage is true; in chilly weather you lose more heat through your head than the rest of your body. Our wool and wool blend caps will help keep you warm and comfortable...

Bring on the cold!
