I like having a cap under my helmet, and I prefer using different weights of wool (depending on the season), and when it's really hot out, I like a mesh cap similar to the Patagonia Duckbill cap because it's basically a cycling cap with a more substantial brim.
Which brings me to my only major critique of cycling caps - the brim. I have always found the short, stubby brims to be completely useless. Never understood why they are so small and insignificant. Over a decade ago, I purchased an Ibex wool cycling cap that remains the very best cycling cap I've ever owned. The crown is a bit roomier, and the brim is the absolute perfect width and length for me. It adequately shields my eyes, but doesn't stick out so far as to interfere with a helmet. In fact, I've been ordering custom caps from Randi Jo and I've requested custom brims that match the dimensions of this old Ibex cap.
