Description
The ideal balance between ease of putting on and comfort: the coated fabric cap, with prints for greater originality. How to choose the material of the swimming cap? Fabric: Designed with a fabric similar to that of swimsuits, it is easy to put on without pulling the hair. A finishing seam surrounds the head to ensure support. Coated fabric: A variation of the knit cap, which is just as comfortable. It is coated with a layer of silicone that reduces water entry and limits its elasticity for better support. Silicone: Less comfortable, but very elastic, it provides excellent support and limits water entry. Are there other types of swimming caps? There are several alternatives to standard swimming caps that adapt to everyone's needs: - brushing caps: knit, they are very extensible. - embossed caps: made of latex, they slide on without pulling the hair. - volume or extra volume caps: silicone caps, their shape leaves more space for heads with a lot of hair. - moulded caps: made of silicone, these are the caps for competitors. - neoprene caps: perfect for swimming in open water. How to choose the right size of swimming cap? S, M, L, one size… How to find your way around? The choice is quite simple: fabric and knit caps with coating have sizes (S, M, L), while silicone caps are designed in one size because they are very elastic. To help you find your way, here is a small guide based on your head circumference: - XS: 50-52 cm. (available in the baby section) - S: 53-56 cm. - M: 56-59 cm. - L: 59-62 cm. - One size: from 53 to 62 cm. How to put on the swimming cap? Did you know? Swimming caps have an orientation! Knit caps have a central band that goes from front to back. In silicone swimming caps, the fold line (visible when the cap is flat) is designed to go in the same direction as the previous ones. Put both hands together inside the cap. Separate your hands (and fingers) to create space and put on the cap. At the front, it should be approximately one finger above the eyebrows. Why should I wear a swimming cap? There are two aspects to consider. Firstly, wearing a cap is a sign of respect for the place you are visiting. By keeping hair in place, it helps protect the quality of the water and the equipment, and ensures the hygiene of the pool or pond. Secondly, you also wear it for yourself. The cap protects the hair from damage caused by water, chlorine (or other treatments) and salt (or other contaminants). Finding it hard to choose between comfort and support? Knit caps with coating provide optimal elasticity and better support than those made only of fabric. They limit water entry. Ease of putting on / taking off A cap that is easy to put on thanks to its fabric with elastic coating. Product support
