TYRLycra Fiber Adult Swim Cap for Women and Men - Recreational and Training Cap for Lap Swimming, Casual Use - UPF 50+ Sun Protection - Nylon/Lycra

I love it for open water swimming during the hot summer months. It’s light weight, stretchy, holds in my long hair, stays snug but comfortable.I will not be using it for pool swimming (prefer silicone and protective product on hair for chlorine pools).

To me this is the best swim cap because it removes the hair pulling and seemingly never drying aspects of the silicone swim caps. This swim cap is so comfortable that I usually forget that I am wearing one after an hour in the lap pool. This is also the only swim cap that I have found that stays in place lap after lap without need for readjustment as the silicon version always road up after launch.The material is soft and very easy to put and take off. If. you wet your hair completely before putting on the swim cap I have found that chlorine "green hair" it not a problem. I am working on replacing all my silicone swim caps with these.

Hadn't used a swim cap in decades, but after skin cancer removal I needed something to protect my head when I was swimming outdoors. It looks small, but this cap is easy to put on and comfortable for an adult head.

Great product. Runs small

I love how easy this is to get on as opposed to the latex ones. It does not resist water as well as the latex caps but that is not a big deal for me. The only issue I have is comfort. As easy as this is to get on I am surprised it applies so much pressure on my forehead. It is comfortable for about 15 minutes and then I usually pull it back close to my forehead hairline to ease the pressure, or folding it up to a narrow cuff in the front seems to also help with the pressure. I guess my head is above average in size.Aside from that, I like it a lot simply for being so easy to get on and off, and it air dries easily, unlike the latex caps that I need to dry with a towel. I just toss this in the water extractor machine with my swimsuit. I switch back and forth between this and latex depending on my mood. I may get another one just to see if the one I have is a fluke in terms of comfort.

I really like the Lycra style caps and was so glad to find this one. I find the regular silicone (traditional or plastic) caps creep up my head as I swim so I have to stop my swim to yank my cap back down. I find that the Lycra style doesn’t ride up with wear and it doesn’t squeeze my ears against my head (if you have higher piercings you know what I mean). It’s not a matter of I don’t want to pause for a few seconds, my cap creeping up and yanking it back down can mess with my goggle seal. If you’re a swimmer you know that you put your goggles on and then you leave them alone, if you start to try to adjust them during a swim their seal with your skin will be broken and your goggles will leak.As for your hair under the cap, you should always wet your hair before you get into the pool because your hair is going to soak in the first water it meets, so you should wet your hair with tap water so it doesn’t absorb chlorinated water. No swim cap will keep your hair dry except those vintage ones from the 1950s with the chin strap, and since you should be wetting your hair anyway, why not wear the most comfortable swim cap. That’s why I like the Lycra caps, I think they’re 100% more comfortable than the silicone kind. You will still need to rinse your swim cap, but unlike a silicone cap, you don’t need to powder your Lycra cap after each wearing.Swim caps aren’t for keeping your hair dry while you swim, they are for keeping your hair out of your face and blocking your vision while you swim. The silicone style caps work by squeezing your head to stay in place, that is why they tend to creep up or simply pop off while you’re swimming. The Lycra style swim caps sit on your head and perform their function without relying on squeezing your head, that’s why many people find them more comfortable. And because they don’t squeeze your head any piercings in your ears won’t become weapons stabbing your head, they will simply be what they are, piercings.

I have been buying this cap for years, tyr overall quality has gone down as well a price, but this cap is way too small now I thought I got sent a child’s cap instead. Could be this new recycled material or shrinkflation😂

Nice
