Cooling Headband
Cooling Headband
Every Oro Sports product comes with CoolPaks™. To order extra, click here.
Sporty, no-slip, sweat absorbing -- and it keeps you cool. Our headbands are constructed with high-quality, cotton spandex and feature a concealed pocket that holds one frozen CoolPak™. The CoolPak™ is positioned at the back of your head, cooling the blood as it returns to your brain -- where overheating occurs. Not much more you can ask from a headband!
The Science
Cooling the neck has been shown to help improve performance, reduce sweating, and enhance the feeling of comfort1,2. Even this small area of the body will yield some surprising benefits from cooling.
Surface cooling depends primarily on how much surface area you can cover, where more is better. However, there are a few small areas on the body which provide unique responses to cooling. The back of your neck is one of those areas. The palms of your hands is another. *Read more about palm cooling in our "CoolCuffsTM" section.

Im a freshman at the University of Arizona. My first week of classes included a temps of 104 degrees walking the campus which at one point I nearly passed out from heat stroke! My OroSport cooling headband has been a Godsend!!!! Can walk my 20,000 steps without fear
I purchase the cooling headbands for adult friends, the kids headbands for my grands and dogs! Texas heat is unbearable without them
The science works great! After experiencing heat stroke years ago this allows me to greatly extend my activities in the outdoor heat.
I'm owner oprator of a food truck and it works great! The only thing is I need more gel/freeze packs as my days are longer than they last.
A food truck owner, of course!! What better time for a cooling headband than when generating heat in a sun-baked vehicle! Always love hearing how and why people put our cooling products to work. You can always order extra CoolPaks, but today we'll be sending a couple extra 'on the house'. Just remember us when we're standing in line for your tasty morsels...
