## Description

Streamline every swim. The TYR Lycra Fiber Adult Swim Cap is designed to reduce drag while maintaining a secure and comfortable fit lap after lap. It doesn't pull or snag and provides a more gentle fit than traditional latex or silicone. Easy to take on and off, this cap is ideal for recreational swimming and training. It's constructed from 80% recycled nylon and 20% XTRALife Lycra that is both durable and breathable.

Review: Flexible and comfortable - Unlike some reviewers, I find this cap to be true to size. I'm a 45-year-old woman, and it fits my head very well. It's snug enough that it doesn't come off in the water, but flexible and comfortable enough that I don't get a headache like I do with silicone swim caps. Also keep in mind that this is not meant to be waterproof. If that's what you need, a silicone cap will definitely keep more water off your hair than this will. I think this type of cap is designed more for hair containment, which in my case, it does well. I also appreciate the UPF rating of the fabric, since I live in a desert climate where the sun really beats down. If you do need your hair contained, but don't need waterproof, I highly recommend this cap! If you do need something waterproof, then silicone would likely be a better choice.
Review: Best Sun-Protective Swim Cap for Larger Heads (Ear-Free Fit) - Speedo and TYR are two of the few brands that still make nylon-Lycra swim caps that fit larger heads (over 7 5/8”), are slip resistant, and do not cover the ears. This design is not intended to keep hair dry. Instead, it keeps hair in place and out of your eyes. I like this cap because it gives excellent sun protection for a thinning scalp. I use it snorkeling, scuba diving, and casual swimming. It fits securely for those activities. It functions great for snorkeling and scuba diving because it doesn’t interfere with a mask or snorkel. Another bonus is that the cap keeps hair from getting tangled in the mask strap or snorkel connector. The fabric has held up well in strong sun, salt water, and after many washings. For anyone who needs a comfortable, ear-free swim cap with real UV coverage with value for the money, I highly recommend this cap.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why does it say lycra when it is mostly nylon?**
A: This fiber gives nylon characteristics it would not have alone.  Lycra is a brand name for elastane, which is a highly elastic synthetic fabric. Despite having different names, Lycra, spandex, and elastane are all the same material.  Cost wise the Lycra in the fabric cost more than the nylon.  Also it sounds better.

**Q: Does the cap provide UV protection?  If so, how much 50?**
A: Yes, it would provide quite a bit of UV protection for the head, including the forehead. But not the back of the neck or the face, nose, or front neck.

**Q: what sizes do you have**
A: This item is only one size

**Q: Can my 5 year old kid use this cap?**
A: The circumference of the edge of the cap is 16 inch.  I stretch the cap over my head in a circle of 24 inches.  Not too tight, sitting comfortably.  The circumference of the head of a 5-year-old child differs from the circumference of an adult’s head by 2-2.2 inches corresponding to the size (min-max).  That is, the hat fits perfectly.  If the child is a girl with a “luxurious haircut”, TYR has developed special hats with extra space for the hair.  I recommend TYR products because of their quality and functionality.  Looks great and professional!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Comfortable cap
*by T***K on April 16, 2026*

Really enjoy this swim cap. I put googles on first then the cap. Very importantly everything stays in place, covers more of the head. Much better fit than the plastic caps that were constantly slipping off. Part of my work out in the pool includes using a snorkel. The straps stay in position outside the cap. Before my wife could tell when I went swimming because the snorkel pad would leave a mark on my forehead for a good part of the day. No more, the fabric cap provides enough protection. Almost forget I am wearing it.
