The Front Runner is a community-created cosmetic item for the Scout. It is a white sweatband with a team-colored stripe that pushes Scout's hair out of his eyes.
This item has two styles, named "Stylin'" and "Indifferent". The "Stylin'" style has spiked up hair, and adds new headphones without a headband, while the "Indifferent" style removes the headphones and changes the hair to be gelled down.
The Front Runner was contributed to the Steam Workshop.
