Seamless caps have no seams for ultimate comfort and a hydrodynamic fit - perfect for racing. Decoration can be allover and can include stripes over the top.
Dome caps feature a rounded shape that reduces drag. Decoration is limited to smaller logos on the sides, front and back - no stripes over the top etc.
Flat caps have a traditional design ideal for training and recreational swimming. No decoration over the top area.
