About Speedo In 1914, Speedo was founded in Australia by Alexander MacRae, a 22-year-old Scottish immigrant who arrived in the country in 1910. The company began when MacRae Hosiery manufacturers, established by Alexander in 1914, extended the manufacture of underwear to swimwear and became MacRae Knitting Mills. A naming competition was held by the staff in 1928 and won by a Captain Parsonson, who coined the slogan, "Speed on in your Speedos." In 1929, the first swimsuits were in production and it didn't take long for Speedo to successfully establish itself. World War II caused the brand turn over 90% of it's manufacturing to war production, providing the armed services with vital equipment such as mosquito nets. After the war, Speedo opened a new factory and was able to re-establish itself, due to increased demand for swimsuits. In 1951, Speedo Knitting Mills (Holdings) Ltd, was incorporated and became a publicly traded company on the Sydney Stock exchange. Speedo hit the international stage in earnest, at the 1956 Melbourne Olympic Games, and a few years later the brand grew on a more global scale. Export sales to the USA began and an international division was set up to monitor trade in New Zealand, Japan and South Africa. The expansion of the brand continued, and in 1976, Speedo was appointed as the official swimwear for the 1976 Montreal Olympics, where 52 out of 54 countries wore their swimsuits. Speedo continues to make its mark in the pool and on the beach today. Many world class athletes who wear Speedo include U.S. phenomenon Michael Phelps, legendary Australian swimmer Grant Hackett, world record holder Kosuke Kitajima from Japan, and Holland's Inge de Bruijn.

Rating:  - Good once you wear it in, NOT for long hair!I'm a girl, and I have medium-length hair which is really thick. What I usually do is rinse my hair (in the shower!) and then put it under the cap. The cap slips on a LOT easier. The only thing I would have to add is that I have owned this cap for over a year now. The first couple of weeks I had it, it did give me a headache every once in awhile because I have a big head; either that or it was the goggles that I had (which were too small, too). I bought Speedo Women's Vanquisher goggles, for those who are curious: they work great with this swim cap! Rating: - Good All Around I've used the cap once and noticed that it went on the head smoothly and stayed in place. It also came off easily. Overall, I am very satisfied with the purchase. Rating:  - Too tight!This cap is so tight that I cannot wear it because it gives me headaches. Rating: - A good swim capThe speedo cap is good. One of the reasons is that it really streamlines the head and also its shape fits in the eye wear perfectly! Rating: - Great for protecting hairI learned to wet my hair completely with water (from shower) before putting on the swim cap from other reviewers. This method was great because it ensures the cap to stay fitted and not to slip off. I have long hair that reaches my mid-back, and this swim cap keeps them well-protected during swimming. (By the time I'm done swimming for an hour, my hair that was previously wet become partially dry!) Now I enjoy swimming almost daily without having to worry about the hair damage caused by swimming pool water.
