Azzurro Cycling Cap
The late 1800s. That's when it started. Wear something to add protection from the harsh elements. Some sort of headwear was needed, so the rudimentary flat cap was the obvious choice as opposed to the traditonal top hats of the time.
(Baseball cap lovers, you may want to follow along here.)
Although the initial felt caps were made of tweed, the style was moving in the right direction. Eventually things settled on the design adopted today. Usually made of cotton to keep the sweat from dripping in your eyes, and easy enough to shield out the sun or rain without having to crank your head back & when the sun peaks through, it’s easy to simply flip the brim up.
Azzurro
Inspired from the House of Savoy, the dark, rich blue colour has long been used to represent Italy. The stories vary from the blue being that of the seas surrounding the country to a flag flown on a ship harbouring golden stars & a Madonna. Either way, it is a blue which you will relate to quality.
With reference to our beloved Giro, it displays Climbing, Agility & Stamina.

Azzurro Cycling Cap
Cycling caps are designed with as much function as they are style. Have you ever felt the sun on your face or the rain in your eyes?? Maybe it's the seat dripping down onto your glasses? ALL of those scenarios are designed to be solved by this cap.
You are already wearing skin tight, possibly semi transparent fabric vaccummed against your body. If you think a 'cycling cap' is gonna make you look funny, haha well you'll have to consult with your closest mirror.
