I also wear a moisture wicking Waltz cap and can confirm that they do not smell horrid after a ride.
Very well made caps imvho.
Just bunged it (along with everything else I wore for the Dun Run and most of Sunday) in the wash. I can confirm that the cap was smell-free, which is more than can be said for my mitts. My jersey was still faintly nettle-flavoured.
I've just ordered a Walz cap. There was no additional cost added fror P&P, so it ended up costing <£12. Did anyone else have to pay P&P?
They do say free (international) shipping somewhere on the website. I dunno if they charge for bulk orders.
ETA: found it:
Yes, we do ship internationally via USPS first class international mail. An added bonus is that on small international orders there is no additional charge for shipping, although you are still responsible for any customs fees on your end. We get a big kick out of the requests for Walz Caps from fabulous destinations around the world. We often wish we were as well traveled as our cycling caps. One day, we hope to come visit all of you!
We ship international orders once a week and USPS international shipping times vary. One order make take seven days and the next two weeks. We know that you are very excited to receive your caps and the delays may be agonizing, but it is still pretty amazing that our caps can travel from beautiful San Diego to anywhere in the world and you aren't paying extra for the travel. Please be patient and we promise your cap(s) will arrive. If it has been an excessively long time since you placed your order, email us and we can check your shipping dated. Usually the day you send us the email, your caps arrive. Some sort of post office magic.
Can't argue with that, can you?
Those Walz caps don't look right to me. The peak points down too much and head shape's too flat, almost like a skull cap. They look more like a school cap.
The shape is slightly different, in as much as it fits my head better and looks less dorky as a result. YMMV.
The peak does point down quiet sharply, which works well for keeping flies and stuff out of my glasses in a recumbent position. I've yet to try it on an upright bike, though. Suspect it may prove to be annoying...
