Wanted to let you guys know what a great product you have. Riding in the Texas heat and humidity really creates a sweat management problem. I have tried every other headband out there and they work until they saturate, then the sweat overflows down you're riding glasses. Your product really channels the flow from front the forehead down to the back of your head into the tails of the headband where it can drip off "out of the way". This is by far the best headband product I've used.

Been using the Fearfools band for a couple years now. It's a keeper. Nothing I've used in the past repels sweat away from my glasses/eyes during Austin's hot, humid, summer rides as well as these do. Additionally, I like running the knot & tails through the back of my helmet's straps/adjuster to keep my helmet from sliding down, interfering with my vision. That's something I couldn't do with other skull cap type sweat wicking products. This product works as advertised at a reasonable price.
Cheers,

After chopping off my long hair, I started wearing the Wicked Tails to keep my bangs out of my face, and they work great at that. I got the added benefit of having the moisture wicked down from my forehead, so no more of those salty streams of sweat burning my eyes during the ride. I like Wicked Tails so much that I have several - for day-after-day riding on MTB vacations. I might grow my hair long again, but I'll keep wearing the Fear Fools Wicked Tails.

I have used every "sweatband" on the market and had pretty much given up on the concept of trying to keep the stinging sweat out of my eyes. All of the other products/gimmicks out there did nothing for managing perspiration and actually caused MORE sweat into my eyes, like wringing out a sponge. For years I rode the summers in a constant state of blurriness, my eyes squinting through the stinging sweat, I could hardly see the trail. Finally a friend turned me onto this Wicked Tail thing. I can't believe how well it works. No more waterfall into my eyes from a "sponge", I can actually SEE the trail much better now, I can focus on riding FASTER and not wiping my face. Awesome product and I cant wait to see what you "fools" whip up next.
Thanks,

Thanks for the headbands. I have used them on several 4 hour road rides. It has been over 100 degrees and high humidity. I noticed a marked decrease in the amount of sweat that dripped onto my glasses. The sweat that did drip onto the glasses did it more to the side of the lenses and not right down the middle. I thought the knot in the back would be a problem but was able to accommodate it with two different brands of helmet. I have four different Sweat Vac headbands and skull caps and one Under Amour skull cap. I would place your headband on par or even a little better than the Sweat Vac skull caps and just plain better than the Sweat Vac headbands and Under Armour skull cap. One of my helmets fits a little tighter going on so I would use the Under Armour skull cap even though it does not work as well. I used your headband in place of the UA on this helmet and the headband was not obtrusive and worked extremely well. Thanks again.
