Product description from the manufacturer
The Silicone Swimming Cap from juclise is a swimming cap for toddlers and children. This high-quality swimming cap combines safety, comfort, and stylish design in one well-thought-out product. Made from 100% food-safe organic silicone, it is BPA-free and particularly skin-friendly—ideal for sensitive children’s skin. Thanks to its pearlescent surface with integrated UPF 50+ sun protection, it not only offers optimal UV protection, but also shines elegantly in the sunlight – for a modern, fresh look in the water and at the poolside. The flexible fit ensures maximum comfort without pinching. At the same time, water penetration is minimized – even with long hair. A reinforced anti-slip texture on the inside prevents slipping while swimming or playing and ensures a reliable hold, even with a lot of movement. Robust, waterproof silicone protects against chlorine and salt water, preserves the hair structure, and impresses with its durability – perfect for regular swimming sessions.
In practical tests, the swimming cap impressed with its comfort, attractive design, and waterproof silicone.

This product was delivered in a cardboard shipping bag that was very well suited to the size of the product .
With the exception of a small plastic bag in which the cap is stored, no environmentally harmful packaging materials were used. It would be desirable for the manufacturer to consider whether plastic could be dispensed with in future.
Instructions for putting on the swimming cap are printed on the plastic bag in which the cap was stored.

An initial stretch test showed that the material can be stretched nicely without losing its bright color.

The swimming cap was subjected to a thorough practical test in the swimming pool. In terms of fit, it is worth noting that it is ideal for the heads of children and young people aged 12-15, but also for smaller adult heads. The cap fits well and securely on the head and is comfortable to wear. The product is very stretchy and elastic, adapting easily to different head sizes and shapes. It is highly waterproof – in the practical test, it took a very long time for the hair to become slightly damp, even though the head was frequently submerged under water.
The optimal fit and elasticity also ensure that the product is non-slip; the cap remained in place throughout the entire test.
An odor test showed that the swimming cap has virtually no material odor and is therefore very comfortable to wear.
In practical testing, the swimming cap impressed with its comfort and high level of water resistance.
