Swim Caps

Soft, stretchy silicone, latex free. Silicone is the standard choice for adult swim caps because it stretches to fit most head sizes, holds its shape, and doesn't perish the way older latex caps do.

A plain black cap does the job, but it also makes you very easy to lose in a crowded pool. A printed cap is instantly recognisable, genuinely more fun to wear, and just as functional, same silicone, same stretch, same fit.

Are Budgy Smuggler swim caps silicone?
Yes, all our swim caps are made from soft, stretchy silicone and are latex free.

Will a swim cap keep my hair completely dry?
No cap is fully waterproof, some water will always get in around the edges. What a swim cap does well is reduce drag in the water and cut down on chlorine exposure to your hair, not eliminate it entirely.

What size should I get?
Our swim caps are one size fits most. Silicone has enough stretch to accommodate most adult head sizes and hair volumes comfortably.

How do I look after my swim cap?
Rinse in fresh water after use and let it air dry fully before storing, ideally somewhere it won't fold or crease for long periods. Avoid leaving it in direct sun when not in use, and keep it away from sharp jewellery or fingernails when pulling it on.

Pair your swim cap with matching swimwear from the same print where available, or browse the full Men's Swimwear and Accessories ranges.
