FOR THOSE WHO SAY IT DOESN'T KEEP THEIR HAIR DRY: almost no cap will keep your hair dry while swimming, even the ones that professional swimmers use. Caps are designed to keep your contained, NOT dry. Hope this helps for those who see all of the negative reviews with this complaint.I have been a team swimmer for over 9 years and have always struggled with how hard latex and silicon caps are on my hair, resulting in a rubbed and worn down hairline at my temples and the base of my skull. I also like to precondition my hair prior to swimming which makes it difficult for regular caps to stay on through out my practice. One of my team mates uses this arena fabric cap so I just had to try it.PROS: I've been using it since May 2023 and it hasn't stretched or worn out (I swim 3x per week in chlorinated pools.) It doesn't budge during practice and the baby hairs along my hairline are beginning to grow back, which is great since I will be getting married in a year from now.CONS: I noticed that there is a bit more drag on my swimming, since water is able to permeate the fabric compared to a latex or silicon cap, but ultimately this will help me get stronger and be more fluid in the water when I switch to latex caps for swim meets. This extra drag is not a deal breaker for me and I still prefer this cap over the traditional ones.Overall, I recommend getting this cap if you are concerned about your hairline or if your cap slips while you are swimming.

Wish it came in a slightly smaller kids size. If youve ever tried to put a swim cap on a little one with long hair, this one has an ideal design! Its just a little too big for my 7 year old. Im going to try and shrink it in the dryer. We shall see if that works!

If you have a big head like me, this is the swim cap for you. The built in headband is brilliant. If you want more protection or you need less drag, you can always put a silicone one over it, but I'm not a racer. It will save your hair from breakage! I've already bought two and will continue to buy it as long as Arena makes it.

Holds my long hair in place under the cap! Fantastic

This is a great swimming cap, I have long thick wavy frizzy hair and I'm a beginner swimmer, I had difficulties put on silicone caps but this one is super fast and easy. I found that slides during the swimming class a bit exposing my ears. I decided on the fabric because the silicone one had so many bad reviews (too bad cuz would be the perfect one). Also they should offer more colours.
