Product Details

The Skull Cap Shorty is the compact version of SweatHawg’s proven sweat-beating design. Using our engineered tech-fabric system, it absorbs first, then wicks and evaporates to keep you drier and cooler. The shorter, above-ear cut keeps straps, eyewear, and comms clear—making it a favorite for athletes, workers, and firefighters who need tough sweat control in a streamlined fit.

Benefits

TECH-FABRIC SYSTEM (ABSORB + WICK) — Hyper-absorbent rayon (from bamboo) interior holds sweat, while the outer wicking mesh evaporates it fast.

DRIP-STOPPING DESIGN — Stops sweat before it reaches your eyes, face, or glasses.

SHORTY FIT — Above-ear coverage stays clear of straps, eyewear, and comms for a clean fit.

UNDER-HELMET OR SOLO — Low-profile, flat seams won’t bunch under helmets; also great on its own.

HUMIDITY-READY — Designed for hot, sticky climates where ordinary caps saturate and drip.

BALD-HEAD FRIENDLY — Soft, itch-free feel on bare skin; no more sweat racing down your scalp.

WASHABLE & REUSABLE — Machine wash, air dry, repeat. Built to last.

MADE IN THE USA — Hand-sewn in Oregon with small-batch quality.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I care for my SweatHawg?

Hand-wash or machine-wash in warm or cool water. Do not use fabric softener, as it clogs the absorbent layer. Dry on a cool setting or hang dry. Avoid wringing; instead, squeeze out excess water or roll the item in a towel. For headbands, wash them closed and ensure the hooks are secured within the loops. Exposed Velcro hooks may snag delicate fabrics.

How does SweatHawg help with sweat control?

SweatHawg uses highly absorbent, moisture-wicking materials that pull sweat away from your face and eyes. This helps maintain comfort and visibility during cycling, outdoor work, training, and other high-heat activities.

Can this be worn with helmets, hats, or other gear?

Yes. SweatHawg products are thin, flexible, and designed to work under most helmets, caps, hard hats, and other headwear. They function well as helmet liners, skull caps, and headbands.

Who usually benefits from SweatHawg products?

People who sweat during cycling, indoor training, construction, outdoor work, hiking, and other heat-intensive activities often choose SweatHawg for better sweat control and comfort.

How long does the absorbency last?

Absorbency varies by activity level, but most users experience strong sweat control before needing to rinse or refresh the fabric.
