I swim up at the lake now and then and don''t normally wear caps. But in the spring/fall the water is cold and gets dark fast. I like to wear yellow or orange at these times to help cover my noggin and be more visible (I wear a wetsuit in the spring and it is of course black).
This cap is like most others and is doing the job so far.
Good price (I had a "top brand" at almost 3x the price for the very same material, thickness, and style- which lasted a year and a half).
So this works for me.
