Do you have to wear a swim cap to keep the headphones on?

No, but it will secure them. The headphones come with different size ear plugs to fit your ear.

No. The headphones are awesome and hook around behind your ear so you can go cap less. I usually wear a cap just out of habit though

I feel more comfortable with the swim cap, but I have worn them without. I guess it depends on how comfortable you feel. Wearing the swim cap gave me a sense of security that the ear buds wouldn't come out.

I don't wear a swim cap, the earbuds may stay in place if I did. I just can't take the feel of the caps.

No, not at all. I use it in and out of the water. The swim cap can actually cause the earphones to fit awkwardly requiring occasional adjustment. You will probably have a better fit without a cap. That's just my opinion.

Yes, you can attach it to your swimsuit. The ear buds are adjustable. Oh, and I also bought the second set of earphones they offer. It has a headband that I attach my iPod directly to and it holds the ear buds in better to keep out water.

They are pretty loose on your ears so I would say no. Depending on the helmet strap you might be able to keep them in place, but I would probably check out more secure headphones for use with any physical activities.

Yes, water will leak into the cap as get hair wet. It is a tight fit, as you would expect from a swim cap, but NOT excessively tight to the point of headache-inducing.

Yes .. there is a piece that is sealed and screws out when you want to add headphones.... Obviously it is not waterproof when the piece is out...

I've worn my hat while swimming. I didn't put my head/hat under the water but it did get wet but it dried off pretty quickly.

I don't know about rain-proof or water-proof, but I believe they are fairly sweat proof. I don't think you could swim with them on, but I haven't had any problems working out with them on, and I have in the past with a different pair of headphones. At the tip of the speaker, which is the farthest inserted into the ear, is a little white plastic 'cap' (shaped like an inverted cap) that after awhile can get clogged with earwax, but you can pop the cap out and clean it with a pin (it has little holes in it) and pop it back in. I've done this several times, and haven't lost either cap yet.

no, unfortunately it does not. I swim 3x/week and in order to protect my hair, prior to swimming I get it wet with non-chlorinated water and put conditioner on it, then put the cap on. Unlike the silicone caps, this one stays on if your hair is wet and slippery.

No, the cap is not necessary. I snorkel without the cap and the device works great... only issue is that the plugs tend to irritate the ears after awhile but I think that's the price you pay for the solid water-tight seal.

I normally wet my hair in the shower before swimming, but the cap does keep the chlorine water from getting on my hair. I love my cap

They are adjustable to a small degree. I guess it depends on the size of your head while wearing a cap. They aren't very well made, but they are helpful in reducing small engine noise.

The waterproof headphone come with 3 different sizes. If you wear the biggest size for your ear that will fit; it does keep the water out. I never wore ear plugs before the headphones; but I was bothered by the water in my ears. Since I have worn the headphones , the water does not bother my ears. Love this product!

I have never attached it to cap or goggles, I have always attached it to the straps or the top of my bathing suit. It works because I am female. If I was male with trunks on, I would roll the cord of the earphones up and attach it to swimming goggles.

No, it does not. You could wear it under your swim cap and have the running mode on. However, I do NOT recommend this watch. When training for my tri I used a regular swim watch and never tested this watch out in the water because I didn't think I needed to. Well, the day of the tri water got in the watch. It's not entirely waterproof. I've had the watch less than it year and it turns on and off (probably water damage). Bad buy.. Hope this helps!

Swim caps aren't generally used to keep water out of the ears. They are more of keeping your hair out of your face while your swimming. I would not recommend this as something to keep water out of your son's ears.

I wear my helmet with them in, but it is tight. I have been pulling the earphones out before taking the helmet off to because it is painful to do it the other way. I satisfied with the fit and not looking to buy another set that might be more of a flush fit.

Hi Juan,Wearing the headphones alone, they are secure. For swimming they are in the silicone case and so don't really hook over the ears then. You can sort of put them in place, but that wouldn't be enough to hold them there. The swimcap holds everything secure with the headphones just protruding down a little [see swimming image]. Hope that makes things clear.
