Should men wear swim caps?

Be a Baldy

If you are swimming in order to prepare for a race, any hair on your body creates drag. Wearing a swim cap can lessen drag and improve your time.

Some swimmers choose to train without a swim cap if it is comfortable, and then race with a cap to allow for less drag and a better time.
