Swimming Caps

Found in the kit bag of almost every swimmer, swimming caps are essential in competitive swimming. They protect your hair from pool chemicals by limiting the exposure that your hair has to chlorine. This is particularly important for children. The swim cap also helps to hold the goggle straps in place on your head and reduce drag, increasing your swimming speed which is important for swimmers with long hair where drag can be a major problem. It’s important to ensure you have a cap that fits comfortably while wearing your goggles.
