GOCap PYN 2 Comp | NineZero

The summer running cap with built-in neck protection

There’s a specific kind of suffering that comes with a long run in full sun no shade for miles, the back of your neck cooking, and the growing suspicion that the cap you’re wearing isn’t really up to the job. The GOCap PYN 2 was built for exactly that scenario. PYN stands for protect your neck, and the snap-in neck flap does precisely that clipping on when the sun is relentless and snapping back off the moment you don’t need it, without any fuss. The rest of the cap is doing its part too: stretch FLEXweave woven fabric for a fitted, secure feel, COOLmatic PLUS MIKRAmesh accelerating airflow and wicking moisture away during the kind of efforts where heat management genuinely matters, and UPF sun protection throughout. It’s the most considered cap in Ciele’s summer line-up the one you’d reach for on a shadeless August half-marathon or a high-summer trail run where the sun stays high well into the evening. The reflective logo earns its keep on the inevitable night runs either side of the season.

• Everybody run. That’s the rallying cry behind Ciele Athletics but don’t be fooled into thinking this gear is just for race-day regulars. Whether you’re chasing a PB, catching a train, or wandering the city on a sun-soaked afternoon, Ciele’s kit is built for movement, made to last, and designed to go wherever the day takes you. Founded in Montreal by Jeremy Bresnen and Mike Giles two veterans of the outdoor industry Ciele started with a single idea: that headwear could be better. Way better. As keen runners, they were sick of saggy cotton caps and lazily-designed headwear. So they built something smarter gear that looked good, performed brilliantly, and could stand up to serious use.

  Since 2014, Ciele has gone from cult favourite to everyday staple. Their signature caps have become a fixture on trails, tracks, pavements and platforms trusted by marathon elites, weekend wanderers, roamers, commuters and creatives alike. They’ve since expanded into a full range of technical wear, but headwear remains their beating heart.

  And it’s not just good kit. Every single cap is made using recycled materials. They’re a long-time certified B Corp too, meaning they’re building a business that balances profit with purpose committed to people and the planet as much as performance.
