TYR Lycra 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.

Solid product. Previous one worked well for more than 4 years before I lost it. Greatly recommended.

I'm 5'2 and a junior sized woman with a small head, I read that people thought this swim cap had a tight fit, figuring it would fit me and not be tight, I do find it tight and can't wear it long periods of time, that's where it lost a star. I use this in the water near the surf, it will not keep your hair dry, but it does keep my hair in place and not swishing in the surf. This works well with the snorkel mask.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:TYR is a reputable brand, the product was reasonably priced.Hair hold:It holds hair pretty well but I have short hair so didn't really test it. It fits very tightly around your head even with my short hair. Durability:Poor durability is the main reason why I give it only 3 stars. It lasted about 4 months and then the elastic fibers started breaking. Other swim caps usually last me about 9-12 months with regular 3 swims per week.Thickness:Very thin, very comfortable.Coverage:Covers the whole head if you have short hair. If you have long hair, you'll struggle fitting it in.

I used this to go swimming, usually in a pool. I tried the un-flow through ones and they would fill with air and feel uncomfortable and look stupid. Since I don't need to keep my hair dry these are easy to use, stay on, fit beneath my goggles, rinse out easily and dry beside my swimsuit. After a year or so, even with rinsing, the elastic around the edge dies and I could even anchor an old one on my head with my goggles but life is too short for that, so I buy them consistently. This is one of my favorite brands.

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😂

As a free diving fanatic, this cap is perfect. I am a female with a large head and a lot of hair. I had been looking for a solution to my mask strap irritation where your hair wraps around while swimming and rips it out when you take your mask off. I have tried all the nice gadgets and bandanas that go over the band and your hair still gets tangled and pulled out. This cap is perfect, I can twist my hair, put it in the cap and it stays in place and my hair remains stationary and does not get all tangled. Easy to put on without pulling and does not move around on my head while I'm wearing it. Tt is very comfortable to wear and feels secure not tight. My mask strap no longer gets tangled in my hair and when I am done diving for the day it is much easier to wash my hair without all the tangles that I used to have. For free diving on reefs it is perfect and also protects my scalp from sun burn. My daughter has very long hair as well and said she would not wear one as she did not like the idea of a bathing cap, however, during our outing when I was done for the day and she was still trying to get her hair untangled she decided to try it and loves it too! Just ordered additional caps to keep us both happy.
