I have gone through a number of laytex caps and they all had their issues. This silicone cap is great and has been problem free. 5 stars

I have used this cap almost daily for over a year. It still fits snugly and is very comfortable. Writing this review has made me think to order another one now, for the inevitable day my old one wears out.

I have a rather large head and found many caps didn't fit comfortably. This one is very elastic and is great. 5 stars

This is the first swim cap that I have ever owned, so I don't really have any way to compare it to others. I bought it so that I wouldn't have to wash and dry my hair every time I went swimming but it didn't work. It seems easy enough to get on and off but it doesn't keep my hair dry.
I finally gave up on it and now it is just taking up space in my locker. Lots of other people at the pool use them regularly, though, so maybe I am just not doing it right. 3 stars

I just got back into swimming a few months ago. And even though I'm not of Olympic caliber, and neither do I have long hair I need to harness, I felt getting a swim cap would help eliminate some drag, but mainly protect my hair from eventual chlorine damage. (It feels so stringy even after showers it must be harmful, methinks).

Anyway, the cap fits fine, even for someone with a big noggin as myself. it feels awkward, of course --and I can't quite figure out where the tops of my ears fit into the whole equation-- but other than that it slips on and off smoothly, and the material is firm yet smooth in texture. Dries quickly, doesn't go moldy with moisture, etc, like wet clothes, and has a nice variety of colors from which to choose, if that's your concern.

Overall, I got this `cause folks had good things to say about it, but it wasn't high-end in cost like the ones racers wear.

I swam competitively for most of my life, and this was the only cap that I enjoyed using. Latex caps snagged my hair and gave me allergic reactions. Cloth caps feel nice but they're not for competitive swimmers, as they slow you down. The silicone caps are a breeze to put on and even held my waist-length hair. 5 stars
