Headsweats Perspiration Technology Headwear was founded in the winter of 1998 by shoe industry veteran and
obsessed cyclist, Alan Romick. Frustrated by the perils of heavy
sweat blindness, migrating sunscreen, and odd sunburn pattern on
his head through his helmet, he set out to develop headgear that
worked. Encouraged by the constant feedback within the local
cycling community, he took the best attributes of what was
available and improved on them. Starting with one product -- The Cotton Classic -- available at first in just four colors, Alan’s products quietly
became elite athlete’s secret weapon around the world, eventually
expanding to over 17 different products available in over 140
different colors and styles.
