UM Athleisure FAQs
What's the best cap for the gym?
A lightweight synthetic cap with ventilation, a wicking sweatband and an adjustable buckle. Never Stop Playin' // 002 is our go-to for heavy sessions. Not sure whether you need a sports cap or a baseball cap? Read Sports Cap vs Baseball Cap.
Why wear a cap while working out?
A training cap catches sweat before it reaches your eyes, shades your face during outdoor sessions, and keeps hair out of the way.
Are athleisure caps good for everyday wear?
Yes. They're designed to look clean off the gym floor too, so one cap covers your workout and the rest of your day.
How do I clean an Urban Monkey athleisure cap?
Don't machine wash it. Pre-treat the sweatband with baking soda paste, soak in cool water with mild detergent, scrub gently with a soft toothbrush, and don't wring or twist it. Air dry in shade for about 24 hours with a towel inside to hold the shape. Full care guide →
