 The Etxeondo Letras Headband is a marvel (also known as the Etxeondo 3-in-1 Headband). A headband, hat, and a neck sleeve with a beautifully soft inner all in one, courtesy of some neat folding, and a little drawstring at the top. From the work commute or road ride when you might need a some neck protection from the wind, to post bike when a full hat is what's called for, the Letras does it all. If all that isn't enough to convince you, then you should know that no less than Tour de France Champion Alberto Contador wears the Letras in cold weather training.

To this day, the entire range, (apart from some accessories which are made in Italy), is still designed and produced in San Sebastian, where the company first started. Etxeondo have a solid reputation for making only the highest quality apparel, designed for the most demanding cyclists, whether they ride road or mountain.

20 reviews for Etxeondo Letras Headband
 Warm & stylish: another Etxeondo success!
by Christopher Wade from United Kingdom on 03/05/2012
In cold or windy weather I used to ride with 3 buffs around my neck. Do you suffer from the swollen vertebrae at the base of the neck/shoulders after a ride? I'm sure it was partly to do with the cold wind hitting it, despite the buffs! The Letras Headband (worn together with my new Darse Gilet) reduced the discomfort & end-of-ride-swelling by about 75%. The Letras is a very comfortable piece of kit, despite my initial concern that the inner fleece doesn't rest against the neck when worn in neckband mode. I didn't suffer from any irritation from the wool/acrylic being against my skin. I love it, and my wife thinks it looks great as a hat!  Fantastic for cold conditions

it fits, it's easy to get on and off. quality construction it looks cool but keeps your neck warm.  This is great
by Raymond Fellows from United Kingdom on 24/02/2012
Read all the reviews and was a bit skeptical. No need to worry . Got it Just before the snow this year so it had a good work out. Keeps you warm , very versatile, looks cool. Very much recommend this hat....and AR service was really good as well (to be fair it always has been). Only down side is that even with this hat I still dont go up hills like Contador  Cold weather favorite!
by Alan Talampas from United States on 21/02/2012
I've looked all over on this side of the pond (U.S.) for this so I was very glad to find it here. This is my favorite piece of cold weather gear! Quite versatile. Whether just keeping your neck warm, or your neck, ears and face - I really like it. Of course after the ride, you can wear it as a hat.  Versatile neck tube
by Justin Headlong from United Kingdom on 18/02/2012
I gave it 4 stars cos it ain't cheap, but it is very comfortable on the bike and it is more useful than a straight neck tube cos you can wear it as a hat.  Super Hat!

Well...I love this piece of kit! After several really cold rides without proper headgear, I decided to go for it. It's really warm and is pretty deep, so you can pull it way over your ears. As I am writing this, I'm wearing it as a neck warmer. I've gotten many compliments on it so far. Definitely one of the best all-round pieces of cycling apparel that you can own.  so good i bought one twice....

having lost my first letras headband i went as far into the winter months as i could before i decided i could do without it any longer. i use it as a neck warmer only on the bike, but the draw string sees some action when i pop the skis on....  Contador's Favorites

Even when not riding on a bicycle, I often wear this.  Don't leave home without it
by ian leitheiser from United States on 01/12/2011
Everyone should have a couple. So classic. So iconic. And it does a lot of things: keeps the neck warm in cold weather; covers the head at stop for a cortado; keeps the post-ride chill away. I've got one on hand all the time from November - March. 
by Andrew Mawby from United Kingdom on 19/09/2011
Does what it says on the tin! Just be aware that the fleece liner only comes about a third of teh way up, to enable the headband to be rolled up. It also is not a full wind proof, but is ideal for teh bike where you want some cooling, but also some protection from the elements. 
by Roy Cooper from United Kingdom on 31/05/2011
Sometimes you have to spend more to save more! This is true with this seemingly expensive hat. The design and quality are great and I am sure it will give good service in the long term and result in a bargain. 
by kale Streetman from United States on 14/03/2011
Love the 3 in one. Can use it as a hat or neck wrap. Comfy and looks good on or off the bike. Recommended. 
by Simon Carson from United Kingdom on 21/02/2011
Expensive but a quality item, looks really good as well.
by beev from United Kingdom on 10/02/2011
Generally, you get what you pay for. This is an expensive hat. Similarly, it is an expensive neck warmer. However, it is not expensive considering its dual function, quality construction, comfort and design. A must! 
by Kelvin Southan from United Kingdom on 02/01/2011
This is one of my favorite pieces of winter clothing. On the bike it's great to use as a scarf around your neck or over you lower face, not so good as head-wear when wearing a helmet. Plus they do look fab! Off the bike it's great however you wear it and if you have more than one you can use one around the neck and one on your head. They look pretty cool and tend to generate quite a bit of interest from various people when they see the functionality of the product. 
by Mac from United Kingdom on 10/12/2010
This headband is very warm for head neck and face, ideal when out training in the winter months. just ordered another one, although a little pricy. worth every penny. excellent service from always riding. many thanks 
by habs from Denmark on 08/11/2010
Absolutely in love with this item. Mainly use is as a buff and snugs nicely and warm to your neck. The garment is big enough to cover neck and face on those cold rides. Also it looks really cool. Have been machine washed several times and still look great 
by Michael Stephenson from Canada on 21/10/2010
great for stopping that north wind from the Arctic going down the back of your neck when in the drops. The hat will be a hit apres ski in a a couple of months. A versatile product 
by Speedysnail from United Kingdom on 19/10/2010
It is just so cosy and warm. I use it for my daily commute and I should take it skiing this winter as it works both for the neck and as a hat.

"Bought an Etxeondo Denali Jersey, the size chart stated large but went with XL due to 6.1 inch and 13 stone, fits perfect. Great delivery on time and within 48hrs." read more >
