Runners wearing trucker hats? Yeah, it’s a thing. You may have noticed Ryan Hall or Jenn Shelton rocking one. Truckers are a hell of an improvement over the alternatives. Previously, our headgear was limited to a stained cotton baseball hat or a low-profile, running-specific cap. The former quickly smelled bad, and the latter just looked dumb.

Here are our favorites.
Blowfish Designs Signature Series ($24)
Elm Company MSMR ($24)
ASICS Fuzex Structured ($26)
The North Face Trail Trucker ($30)
