Beanies and Neck Warmers for Cycling
Our selection of Beanies and Neck Warmers includes the helmet beanie VAUDE, the beanie Protest, and the multifunctional neck warmer P2R, which can be worn as a bandana, headband, or head tube, along with our tips for keeping your head and neck warm during winter bike rides.
Keep your head and neck warm, under the helmet.
The cold of speed
On a bike, the wind from speed enhances the feeling of cold, even in moderate temperatures. The head, ears, and neck are particularly exposed, especially since the vents in the helmet let air through. A thin beanie and a neck warmer are enough to transform the comfort of winter rides, without being bulky, and can be stored in a pocket once you arrive.
The rest of the gear
City bike gear also includes:
All the gear is gathered on the gear page.
Thin and fitted
A helmet beanie, like the one from VAUDE, the German outdoor brand, is fitted thinly, without a pom-pom or thick seams, allowing it to slip under the helmet without affecting the fit: a badly fitted helmet offers less protection. It covers the ears and blocks the wind. The Protest beanie, thicker and more stylish, is suitable for walking or short trips, with an urban helmet adjusted accordingly.
A versatile accessory
The tubular neck warmer, like the one from P2R, can be worn in multiple ways: around the neck, pulled up over the nose and mouth against the cold, as a headband over the ears, or as a beanie under the helmet. Lightweight, it dries quickly and is easy to wash. Breathable materials like merino wool or technical fibres are chosen to wick away moisture during climbs.

Frequently asked questions
Can you wear a beanie under a bike helmet?
Yes, as long as it's thin, like the VAUDE helmet beanie: a thick beanie shifts the helmet and reduces its protection. You then tighten the adjustment dial so that the helmet remains perfectly stable.
How to wear a multifunctional neck warmer while cycling?
The P2R neck warmer can be worn around the neck, pulled up over the nose in the cold, or transformed into a bandana, headband, or head wrap. It thus adapts to the temperature during the ride and can be stored in a pocket.
What material to choose for a cyclist's beanie?
Opt for a fine and breathable material, such as merino wool or technical synthetic fibre, which retains heat without making you sweat. Cotton, which traps moisture, quickly cools the head as soon as you slow down or stop.
Should you protect your ears while cycling in winter?
Yes, ears can cool down very quickly with the wind from speed, especially since the vents in the helmet let air through. A helmet beanie or a headband is enough to prevent pain and headaches in the cold.
How to wash a cycling beanie and neck warmer?
A machine wash at low temperature, on a delicate cycle and without fabric softener (which clogs technical fibres), is suitable for most models. They should be dried flat, away from a radiator, to preserve their elasticity.
