Most days I am bone dry after my swim, saves money on condintioners and time.. There made of latex but dont pull hair. the hair pullers are the thin latex race caps sold everywere. for a swim band and link to another page withh all kinds of cap info <a href="http://www.geocities.com/lapswimr/swimband.html">www.geocities.com/.../swimband.html</a><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/24378?ContentTypeID=1Sat, 12 Mar 2005 11:51:10 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:83bda3b3-f5bc-4764-b800-69d9fbea5f72Former MemberI wear a silicone one; lasts longer. thanks for reminding me to pick up another one :) Welcome back to the pool!!!<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/24421?ContentTypeID=1Sat, 12 Mar 2005 08:27:40 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:b91541c1-f83e-4d7b-a1e0-8f45da3cfcf9swimmieAvsFanwell, for workouts i wear silicone- they last longer and i don&#39;t think they&#39;re quite as tight as latex. which is good for long workout when you can&#39;t take you cap off. for meets i wear latex because they seem a lot tighter to me (less drag) but since you can take them off after your event, it&#39;s not as big a deal as in practice. welcome back!<div style="clear:both;"></div>
