What is the difference between latex and silicone caps?
  • Generally latex swim caps are stronger than silicone.
  • Latex caps are 100% natural rubber where as silicone caps are a synthetic polymer.

Latex caps are more environmentally friendly than silicone caps for the following reasons:

  • The latex comes from a living rubber tree.
  • Rubber trees (as with all trees) play a considerable part in purifying the air that we breathe.
  • After it has completed its useful life as a swim cap, the latex cap will eventually biodegrade.
How do I care for my silicone swim cap?
  • Rinse in cold water after use
  • Do not store when wet
  • Dry both sides
  • Do not leave in direct sunlight
  • Powdering with talc after use will keep your cap in good condition
  • To prevent danger of suffocation do not permit use by small children      

Silicone is a synthetic rubber which is not as tear resistant as latex rubber.                                                                                                     

To prevent the cap tearing, more care is needed than with latex caps, when placing the cap on the head

 

How do I care for my latex swim cap?
  • Wipe dry inside and out with a towel immediately after use.
  • A light sprinkling of talcum powder will keep the cap in perfect condition.
  • Do not leave exposed to direct sunlight.
