eyeline Standard Latex Swim Cap

Eyeline standard latex swim caps available in many colours.

Latex is a thinner material than silicone. Since they are lighter than silicone, latex caps allow for more breathability. Retaining less heat, these caps may be better suited for warmer climates in which heat loss is not an issue.

Latex caps are also generally much cheaper than other types of swim caps. So if you're looking for a cap that won't break the bank, then latex is the way to go. Some people use swim caps to help keep water out of their hair, which helps to reduce the damage that chlorine and other pool chemicals may cause.

Unlike shower caps, however, swim caps are not designed to keep the water out. Thus, there's no guarantee that your hair will stay completely dry.

Swim caps can also be used to help cover your ears while swimming, retain heat, and keep hair out of the pool.
