Speedo Solid Silicone Cap - Elastomeric Fit
The Comfortable Choice. No More Snags. $16.50.
Hi, I'm Chad. There are two things that ruin a good swim: leaky goggles and a tight cap that pulls your hair out. The Speedo Elastomeric Cap solves the second problem beautifully. The secret is the "Elastomeric" silicone compound—it is softer and stretchier than traditional caps. It puts less pressure on your head (goodbye swim headache!) and glides over hair instead of grabbing it.
Transparency Check: I hunt for surplus deals on authentic sports gear. This item is 100% Brand New and Unworn. The retail packaging card might have a crease or be slightly bent from storage, but the cap inside is perfect. Grab this essential for your next pool session and check out our other Outdoor & Sports finds.
How Elastomeric Tech Stops "Cap Creep"
Standard silicone caps are smooth inside, which causes them to slowly slide up ("creep") off your head as you swim. This cap features a micro-grid Textured Interior. This texture creates gentle friction against the hair, keeping the cap securely in place during flip turns and dives without ripping your hair out.

Elastomeric Silicone
Standard silicone is durable but stiff. Elastomeric silicone is engineered with a different molecular cross-linking that allows for extreme flexibility.
This allows the material to expand to accommodate larger head sizes or thick hair volumes and then retract instantly to its original shape without losing tension over time.
How to Put On
- Step 1: Wet or condition your hair slightly (optional, but helps).
- Step 2: Hold the cap open with both hands (knuckles facing inside the cap).
- Step 3: Start at the forehead and pull the cap over the top of your head towards the nape of your neck in one motion. Tuck stray hairs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will my hair get wet?
A: Some water will likely seep in at the edges, especially during active swimming. The cap is designed mainly for drag reduction and hygiene, not waterproofing.
Q: Does this smell?
A: No. Unlike latex caps which have a distinct rubber odor, silicone is odorless.
Q: Does it cover ears?
A: For most head sizes, yes, it will cover the ears partially or fully, helping to hold earplugs in place.
