Cold water starts at the head. The GLYDE Thermal Neoprene Swim Cap is designed to keep you warm, focused, and comfortable when water temperatures drop.

Layering for Colder Water

Staying warm in cold water is all about layering smartly.

If conditions are colder, swims are longer, or you lose heat quickly, consider pairing the thermal cap with other GLYDE thermal layers:

• Neoprene gloves to keep hands warm and maintain dexterity

• Neoprene booties to reduce heat loss through the feet

• Thermal neoprene vest/top to add core warmth without restricting movement

Layering allows you to fine-tune warmth without jumping straight to a thicker wetsuit. Add or remove layers based on water temperature, swim duration, and personal cold tolerance.

Perfect for

• Cold or early-season open-water swims

• SwimRun training and racing

• Winter pool sessions

• Swimmers who feel the cold quickly

Fit & Care Notes

• One-size design with adjustable chin strap

• Can be worn under or over a silicone race cap if required

• Rinse in fresh water after use and dry out of direct sunlight
