Solid value
Color: Black
First one bought Dec 2024 showed good quality for the price: used 5x weekly for about 13 months before failure, so +/-280 on/off cycles. Nothing heroic, totally acceptable for the cost. Rinsed in fresh water and left loosely in an open gym bag to dry. Male with a (very) large head and normal length hair, it fit fine. Buying another one. Important note: swim caps are not meant to keep your hair dry. Benefits do including keeping your shed hair out of the pool filters, improving hydrodynamics, and keeping your own hair out of your own eyes and a "stickier" spot for your goggle strap to sit on. This does all of those things as expected. ... show more

Good swim cap, doesn’t keep hair dry
Color: Black
5 stars for the cap. Negative a million stars for product description. This product does NOT keep hair dry in the water, it’s not supposed to. I don’t even know why they would say that. A swim cap designed to contain hair to reduce drag during competitive and recreational/fitness lap swimming,, not keep hair dry. It also keeps your head warm, if that’s your thing, and silicone caps like this one are warmer than latex ones. I just don’t want anyone to be deceived. If you are looking for a swim cap, I find this one comparable to pricier name brand caps for a lower cost. If you are looking to keep your hair dry, keeping your head out of the water is the only effective method I know of. ... show more

Finally a swim cap that actually works and is comfortable.
Color: Black
I have tried them all and believe me most are a waste of money until I found this one. I'm a swimmer, in the pool every day rain or shine and my hair shows it. Regardless of the care with shampoos, conditioners, oils etc. nothing helps due to the amount of time spent in the pool (salt system). It finally got so bad that I had to try again to find a cap. All the caps maybe due to a small head or just how they all fit, either come to the middle of ears or cover them and all that has ever done is hold the water in them which is annoying at best and unhealthy for my ears at worst and they all let water in. This cap is amazing. Easy to put on, doesn't pull my hair and I'm able to fold it to above my ears and the fit is so secure that it stays in place, doesn't let water in and is so completely comfortable that it doesn't take away from the freedom feeling that I get from swimming. I actually love it. Going to buy a few more because we all know that as soon as we find something that actually works for us it's either discontinued or something changes into "new and improved" which basically means "ruined". If you haven't found one that works give this one a chance, it's fantastic. ... show more

OUCH!
Color: Blue
I've been a distance swimmer for over 45 years. In that time, I've had hair of different lengths. Always wore a Speedo Stretch Cap. But they've gotten pricey so I decided to try this one. For the record, I've had a pixie cut for many years now. And I do not have a large head. But this silicone cap is so dang tight it gives me a bad headache. It's also super difficult to put on. Nope. Nope. NOPE. On the plus side, it will keep your head warm. In my experience, no cap will keep your hair dry. If that's your goal, water aerobics is for you. ... show more

Didn't quite work for me
Color: Black
Maybe this is a good cap but maybe I have a huge head LOL. It was so hard to get on. I mean yes you want it tight but I do have thick hair (not super long) but thick so maybe the hair was making it too hard to stay on? I can't speak as to it working in water but just know if you have a "larger" head this might be too small. ... show more

Too Small?
Color: Blue
It slides off my head. Maybe I watched too many “SNL Coneheads“ episodes in my younger days, but this thing slides right off the top of my head as though I had greased it. This would make sense if I had coated my hair with conditioner before getting into the pool, but I have not done that. I assume the problem is that it’s just a little too small for me. If other swim caps have fit you well in the past, you probably won’t have a problem with this one. ... show more
