Gifts for Swimmers in 2021

If you have a water baby in your family who’s actually more like a little mermaid with all that long flowing hair, they are going to need a good swimming cap designed specially to cater for all that extra hair and this next product from Speedo does just that. OK, so maybe it’s not a Mermaid, perhaps it’s more like Poseidon, not a problem, the Speedo Silicone hat comes in 5 colors so is great for both males and females with longer length locks. It’s constructed from lightweight latex-free silicone and is durable but also a comfortable fuss-free fit. There’s extra space for long hair to be tucked away conveniently inside the cap without compromising on the shape and fit, and it still creates a snug, secure feel that hugs to the shape of the head to improve those dynamics in the water. It’s available in a choice of black, blue, pink, silver, or white and makes a great extra swimming-related stocking filler gift for Christmas.
