Ciele Athletics — A Canadian running brand founded in Montréal by Jeremy Bresnen and Mike Giles in 2014, Ciele Athletics is built on the idea of combining performance, protection, and style in running gear.

What Makes Ciele Unique

• Performance-Driven Design: Ciele designs technical caps and apparel optimized for runners. Their gear uses lightweight, breathable fabrics that dry quickly and offer UV protection (many hats are rated UPF +40 or more).

• Sustainability: Many of Ciele’s caps are made from recycled materials — for example, their GOCap uses Repreve recycled polyester.

• Thoughtful Innovation: Their signature hats often include reflective details for visibility, pliable brims for packability, and a “Million Miles Guarantee” — meaning they back their products for long-term use.

• Style + Community: More than just gear, Ciele is about bringing people together through movement. Their collections include city-themed caps, run-ready apparel, and limited drops that celebrate run culture and place-based stories.

• High-Quality Apparel: Beyond caps, their running clothing features technical fabrics like COOLmatic™ for moisture-wicking, and weight-optimized materials for running comfort.

Why We Love Them

Runners, hikers, and outdoor enthusiasts gravitate toward Ciele because the brand doesn’t force a trade-off between functionality and style. Their hats and apparel feel just as at home on a sunrise run as they do walking around the city. Plus, their commitment to sustainability and durable design gives their gear a real “built to last” feel.
