Cooling Cap - Arctic Heat

Arctic Heat Cooling Cap — Gel Cooling Cap for Sport, Heat Sensitivity, Migraines & Scalp Cooling

The Arctic Heat Cooling Cap is a lightweight gel cooling cap trusted by Olympic athletes, people managing heat-sensitive conditions, migraine sufferers, and workers in hot environments. Developed with Australian medical experts, it's equally at home on the starting line of an Olympic event as it is on a construction site in midsummer.

The cap cools the scalp quickly and effectively — reducing skin temperature, supporting mental clarity under heat stress, and offering relief for conditions where head and scalp cooling is beneficial. It's also used as part of cold capping protocols for chemotherapy patients looking to reduce hair loss — see our Scalp Cooling Kit for sets of 5 caps.
