My absolute favorite hat. Makes every other billed cap feel heavy and oppressive. The AFO Hyperlight Cap from Janji feels light on my head and keeps the sun out of my eyes when out on a run. The foam bill is amazing, I can crumple/roll the hat into a little ball and stuff it in a pocket. Dries out fast too, being so light. 5 stars

Brim deforms easily! not for running

I bought this a month ago for sunny runs and to keep hair out of my face. at first i was in love because it’s breathable, super light, and it’s easily adjustable to fit my small head! I love the drawstring adjustment because it’s easy to put on over a ponytail. The problem is the brim deformed immediately after washing. I put it in the washing machine and let it hang dry. At first I didn’t mind but then after a few more washes it’s so deformed that it just looks silly so I’ll be returning. I’m sure it’s fine if you’re planning to wear it casually and not wash it, but that wasn’t an option in my case cause it gets drenched after a long run.

Perfect running hat

10 months ago

These are my go to running hats. It’s so easy to adjust tightness with the bungee closure while running. I have thick hair which always seems to get even thicker while I run so it’s easy to adj and hair doesn’t get caught into bungee. The hat also dries really fast. It’s also so easy to wash (I let them air dry), and the rim can get reshaped easily while wet then let it air dry to keep shape.

Best ultralight running cap

2 years ago

I have 5 of these Janji AFO caps. The AFO material is thin but durable. So light and comfortable, you forget you’re wearing it. It soaks up sweat like a sponge and keeps it from dripping down my face and out of my eyes, and still feels weightless. The brim is completely crushable and takes minimal space to pack for travel. I pack at least two Janji caps in my luggage so I have different colors to wear. There is a reviewer that said they washed their cap in the washing machine and the brim deformed—that’s user error. —> Just rinse it by hand in the sink or shower after every run. The water wrings out so easily and the brim retains its shape. It literally takes a few seconds. Then hang dry it—it dries very quickly!

Great fit on a big head

2 years ago

I have a very large skull and often have difficulties finding one-size-fits-all headwear...that fits. This cap stays on my head and looks great. Ultralight weight. Materials are high quality as well as the construction. Quick sinch on the back is the cherry on top.

Hands down favorite hat

2 years ago

I purchased Janji leggings a few months ago & they are truly one of my top 3 outdoor activity brands now. For years, I’ve wanted to wear a hat when I hike but find them all too hot, too uncomfortable and just not worth it. I loved my other clothing by them, I purchased this cap with high hopes & I’m sold. Purchased in 2 other colors! I live in Arizona and want coverage for my face, especially in the summer months. So lightweight, cool, comfortable & cute!

Best running hat!

1 year ago

I have been getting back into running and was using my old hats for a while until my Nike one finally bit the dust. After looking around at different hats, I got this since I liked the colors and that it didn't have a Velcro strap. I have run with this hat for around a week at this point and it is hands down the best running hat I have ever owned. I bought another once since I want more to wear casually! Now to find the best running shorts....

Great for cycling, too!

3 years ago

I work and play outdoors daily, and am always on the hunt for a sun-protective cap that I can be excited to wear. This one is darn near perfect. I get frequent compliments on the colors (blue/purple), it's ultralight and packable, is ponytail friendly, has an ideal brim length for visibility, and just generally sparks joy. Bonus: it is so light it's easy to forget I'm even wearing it. Fits great under a helmet without a forehead line! I'm generally a size medium in hats/helmets.

Perfect Running Hat

1 year ago

This hat is extremely light weight. It is great gear. The hat fits the shape of your head because of the thin versatile material. It wicks away sweat and is still comfortable when wet. I have machine washed it after each run and it still looks new.
