 Swimmers use a neoprene swim caps for several reasons:

Thermal Insulation: Volare neoprene swim caps provide better thermal insulation compared to traditional silicone or latex swim caps. Neoprene swim caps retain body heat and provide an extra layer of insulation, keeping the head and ears warmer in cold water. This is particularly beneficial for open water swimming in colder temperatures.

Cold Water Protection: Cold water can cause discomfort and potentially affect swimming performance and enjoyment. Neoprene swim caps help protect the head from the cold water, reducing heat loss and minimising the risk of discomfort, headaches, and potential cold-related conditions. Warm swimmers are happy swimmers.

Ear Protection: Volare neoprene swim caps cover the ears, providing additional protection against cold water and reducing the risk of water entering the ear canal with force when surf swimming. This can help prevent discomfort and potential ear infections.

Hydrodynamic Advantage: Volare Neoprene swim caps are designed to have a smooth and streamlined surface, we construct our neoprene swim caps from Yamamoto smooth skin neoprene. This super high-quality neoprene reduces drag and improves hydrodynamics in the water, enhancing speed and performance.

Versatility: Neoprene swim caps are ideal for swimmers and triathletes and can also be used for various water activities. They are the perfect choice to enhance comfort and warmth while open water swimming, triathlons, cold-water swims, and even pool training sessions. Neoprene swim caps are suitable for swimmers of all levels and can be particularly beneficial in colder or more challenging swimming conditions, including surf swimming.
