Here are some more details from ResportOn:


Each element is designed to live up to your PERFORMANCE.

The hood’s unique design keeps all the hair away from the face. The hi-tech material, featuring micro-pores, dries extremely quickly, up to 14 times faster than cotton. Treated before fabrication, the fibers preserve their properties after multiple washings.

It's designed for your COMFORT.

Resporton fits your body’s shape. The Coverstitch technology makes seam imperceptible. The stretchable fabric allows for free movement of the head. The specially designed pocketed cap holds hair away from the neck.

Concern about detail and sleek design are combined for comfortable performance with STYLE.
