GUTR Performance Sweatband, Channels Sweat Away From Eyes, Universal Fit With Elastic Strap - FLEX

I was recently getting ready for a MTB endurance race and a friend of mine saw me putting on my cotton headband and made a comment that I should really try the SWEAT GUTR Sweatband. Of course I replied I’m used to wearing my cotton headband; sure by the end of riding it’s soaked with sweat, but I’ve ridden this way for years. Anyway, after the race, I started looking at the SWEAT GUTR FLEX sweatbands and figured I would give this gadget a try. Honestly, I was really surprised after my ride today. I had zero in my face; this was a first.WHAT I LOVE ABOUT THIS THE SWEAT GUTR FLEX SWEATBAND1. Zero sweat was in my eyes! This sweatband works!2. Since I'm not wearing my cotton headband, I noticed my head was a little cooler overall because I noticed the helmet vents actually doing their job.WHAT I DISLIKE ABOUT THIS THE SWEAT GUTR FLEX SWEATBAND1. Sweat did find another location, my ears… not a massive amount, but I did feel a little sweat making its way into my ears. In all fairness, I do wear my Apple earphones while riding and these may have been a contributor to this nuance. However, I since I only used the sweatband once, I cannot say for sure. I will give it another try without my headphones.UPDATE:After a few more rides, and adjusting the sweatband, the sweatband is simply awesome. The one thing that was bothering me about a little sweat going in my ears is now a non-issue; even when wearing my Apple earphones...THIS IS THE NEWEST MODEL FOR 2018According to the SWEAT GUTR website, the SWEAT GUTR FLEX sweatband is the newest model for 2018. From what I gathered from my research, the FLEX fits better under helmets than previous versions. Since I used mine today, I can attest that this fits great under a helmet.CONCLUSIONThe big win is that I did not have sweat in my eyes for the first time - ever.If you looking for a sweatband that will keep sweat out of your eyes, this will definitely do the job.

I am a cyclist who sweats a lot! For a while I have been using the Halo sweat bands with the sweat channel on them. They worked ok until they became saturated, which didn't take long. It probably didn't help that I have a large head, so the sweat band was stretched out across my forehead. After a ride I would also have a red line where the sweat channel is because it for so tightly. I just figured this was the best I was gonna get until I found this GUTR sweatband!I immediately loved that it is adjustable, so I can make it actually fit my melon! It took some adjusting to figure out where to put it on my head so as not to interfere with my helmet or sunglasses, but once I had it dialed in it was magical! The first time wearing it was in a 200+ mile weekend charity ride, and I have no regrets. This thing kept up with all my sweat, and let none of it get into my eyes. Afterward, I could just rinse it off with the rest of my gear and get on with my life. I am happy to recommend this to all of my cycling friends!

It gets 4 stars instead of 5 because I ordered 2 of them and neither color was the color I ordered. But as someone who rides for 2-4+ hours in Texas summers it does a good job at removing a lot of sweat that drips into my eyes. It doesnt stop everything but it has significantly reduced how much comes from my head/forehead down my face and into my eyes. Very happy with it, just wish I got the color I ordered.

This has been a game changer for me. In the past, I used to finish my bike rides with red eyes because of the sweat that run down from my head. During the ride I often had sweat dripping into my sunglasses and the whole thing was a mess. This headband is very minimalist and it completely keeps sweat away from my eyes. At first I was a bit skeptical thinking the sweat would somehow leak behind the band and still get to my eyes, but the rubber material of the front side of the headband seals nicely with my forehead forcing the sweat to flow into the gutter and slide away from my side.Highly recommend!

I ride around 600 miles monthly. Average rides of 25miles. I can’t stand bringing 2-3 sweat bands along with me anymore so was excited to try Gutr. I looked at this and Halo but chose Gutr based on some of the amazon reviews and elsewhere online.Just took it out for its maiden voyage. Quick 20 mile loop. I’m in Indiana so The heat wasn’t horrible today. 85ish.Unfortunately, Gutr performed so poorly I literally stopped my route to see if I had put it on upside down. It literally didn’t work at all. Like zero.Now, there could be a couple things messing with it’s performance which I’ll give it another shot and update this review. 1. It was very windy today. 30mph winds. So maybe it was pushing sweat directionally 2. I’m on road bike so maybe I need to position it differently on my forehead. I had it pretty low above eyebrows But because I’m in aero position a lot, maybe it was just at wrong angle to pull the sweat away.Regardless. How I wore it today didn’t work. I literally don’t think it would have been worse if i wore no sweat band of any sort under my helmet.But again, because I appreciate the ingenuity, and small business nature of Gutr and the concept in general. I’m not going to be the guy giving a 1 star review after 1 use. Hoping i did something wrong ( I didn’t read any directions as it seems pretty self explanatory. Just put it on. So will give it the benefit of the doubt , do some research, try again and update this review after tomorrow’s ride.

It worked once or twice, but the adjustment piece fell off. I reached out to the company numerous times and never received a response.
