Halo II Headband
You are alomost to the top of that long climb, you look up and a waterfall of sweat cascades across your glasses.  Yuck.  Halo Headbands think they have come up with a solution to your problem.  It is called the Halo II Headband 

Features:

The Halo II is a pullover headband made of two thin layers of Dryline fabric to evaporate the sweat.  A feature dubbed Sweat-Block technology redirects the sweat to the sides of the Halo if the Dryline fabric becomes saturated.  The fabric that covers all this is made from micro fiber polyester that has been embedded with silver ions.  These silver ions are claimed to prevent the growth of bacteria.  The Halo II is available in black, blue, white, red, or pink and stretches to fit all head sizes.  You can get more information by calling (800) 508-4256.

MBA rating: Five stars for a headband? You bet.  This is one of those simple products that will become as much a staple in your riding gear as your helmet.  Slide on the Halo II, take the fit pads out of your helmet (or go the next smaller size, because the Halo II acts as a fitting pad) and put your helmet on.  Notice something?  A more secure firm and secure fit than you ever felt with the helmet's stock sizing pads.  Now go ride and make sure it is hot.  Go ahead, sweat like you are in a sauna.  The thin Halo soaks it up.  No more showers of sweat over your glasses.  Going downhill, the Halo keeps the helmet from rocking around on your head.  And unlike helmet pads, our Halo never got stinky, plus it is easier to wash (just throw it in the washer with your jerseys).

"Our son is a hockey goalie and sweat getting in his eyes during practice and games has always been a pain.  During a normal one hour practice he goes through 2 to 3 sweatbands.  Matthew is also a runner and while reviewing a copy of Runners World, we noticed your ad and immediatley ordered two of the Halo Headbands.  WOW!  Matthew couldn't be more pleased.  Rarely do we ever see him have to clear his eyes now.  Your product works extremely well, so well in fact that he has recommended it to all his other friends who are goalies!  Thank you...

 “I just wanted to thank you guys for a great product. My wife bought me one of your Halo II headbands for Father’s Day and it is by far the best headband I’ve ever used. I live in the deep south and we get more than our share of heat and humidity. I sweat like the proverbial pig when working outside. The run-of-the-mill headband gets soaked on me quickly, and my eyes start burning. I used your product this past weekend and could not believe how well it worked. I never once had to wipe my face on my t-shirt or wring the headband out (like I usually do). Simply wonderful product. Thanks.

“The Halo Protex really works! My partners and I use them everyday in the field and they are very effective at keeping sweat out of our eyes. I can vouch for the fact that they work as advertised, and very well at that.”

“I want to pass along a story. I went out tonight for my usual Thursday night club ride. Being July in southern New Jersey, the weather was as expected: hot and humid. When I got to the ride, I realized that I had forgotten to pack my Halo headband, as I had hung it to dry after my previous ride. ‘No big deal’ I thought. WRONG! Within the first few miles, my face was soaking, my eyes were stinging and my glasses were covered in sweat. By the end of the ride (26 fast miles later), everything was drenched: helmet, gloves (from wiping away the sweat), face, jersey, and I could barely see out of my sweat-stained glasses.” “Never again! I will ALWAYS remember to pack my Halo for future rides. Just wanted to let you know how pleased I am with your product!”

“I met you at the LA Expo before the marathon and bought one of your headbands. I am writing you to express my surprise and appreciation for this product. This was my 14th marathon and I have grown used to head sweating, particularly during the second half—so much so that on many other occasions I've arranged with family and friends to meet me at mile 15 with a fresh set of sweat bands. Still, I couldn't convince myself to try your headband without a backup—so I lugged around another bandana the entire race.” “Your product works! It is the first headband I've ever used that can provide dryness and drainage for an entire marathon. It's comfortable and never gains any weight—because it channels the sweat down the sides and prevents buildup in the band. You've hit on something that is needed and that works! Thanks again...”

 “Thought I would drop a note and tell you how much I enjoy your headbands! I discovered them over a year ago searching around the net, bought one of the original tie headbands to try it out. What a difference it made! As I wear glasses all the time, I was always having problems with sweat dripping down onto my glasses. With the Halo headband, I no longer have to worry about it! Sweat is transferred away from the front of my face and I NEVER have any problems!” ”After that, I decided to try out one of your Halo Protex. All I can say is GREAT! Really helps keep my head cool and dry! I have managed to lose my original tie headband and will be ordering another soon, but wanted you to know what I thought about them.”

Sometimes, headbands, caps, and do rags just end up holding your hair in place rather than keeping sweat off your face. Not so with Halo Headband products. One of the most common aspects of a headband is the wicking property of the fabric. Unfortunately, the rate of perspiration can overcome the ability of the fabric dissipate the moisture. You still find yourself using your T-shirt or jersey sleeve to wipe away sweat from your face. Or, it gets on your sunglasses and distorts your view. It was obvious how Halo solved this problem. A simple but most effective solution was for the creators of Halo to put a watertight strip on the inside of the headband. This strip feels like rubber and is thin enough so it remains comfortable against your forehead. The strip diverts the perspiration away from your eyes. You can always count on cyclists (who founded Halo) to create something simple yet effective. To put it to the test, I first saturated the Halo Headband, sport hat, Halo II, and Halo Protex with water. After a couple hours of racquetball, I realized I never once had to wipe my face with my T-shirt or clean sweat off my goggles. The next test on the bike was the same. I thought the position of leaning over would surely allow sweat to run down on my eyes. Halo Headband products performed as advertised and eliminated a pesky annoyance. The products also evaporated moisture through the Dryline® fabric. The standard headband ties while my favorite was the Halo II elastic, one size fits all. There is also a bandanna style Protex and a sport hat. The Anti-Freeze band had a wider design for covering your ears in colder weather. The inventors at Halo thought of everything and they made it work! As they say, “don’t sweat without it!”

“After being introduced to the Halo Headband, I never realized how easy it was to keep the painful sweat out of my eyes…now I never run without it.”
– Paul B., Ultra Marathoner and Bicyclist

“The Halo is a great invention. Unlike other sweatbands, the Halo wicks the sweat away from my eyes, thereby preventing discomfort and temporary loss of vision. If you wear contacts or glasses, Halo is a must.”
– Bill D., NORBA Masters Mountain Bike Racer

“The first time I tried the Halo Headband was during a training run while preparing for the New York Marathon. I tried it a couple of times and noticed a huge difference in my comfort level while running. The Halo does a fantastic job of keeping the sweat and sunscreen out of my eyes so I can more clearly focus on the workout. Now I use it not only for running…but tennis as well. I highly recommend it.”
– Jeff C., Marathoner

“The summer heat can really cause a sweat problem, especially with the heavy gear we carry. The Halo Headband helps us see clearly in any situation.”
– Scott H., San Diego Police Department Bicycle Patrol
