Can my child wear a swim hat anywhere?

We don’t recommend it.

The Swim hats are made from a Nylon knit fabric that won’t fade or flop and is quick-drying and chlorine-friendly - all the things you want in a waterplay hat! But, the nylon knit is not as breathable as cotton, and so you’ll find little heads will get hot and sweaty if they’re used for everyday wear and not being cooled down by the water.

An Originals cotton hat for daycare or everyday allows the head to self-cool as it has that natural airflow through the weave.
