Are these patches waterproof? Can a swimmer wear them for training?

Not sure, just know that I have worn them in the hot tub and they don't come off or seem to absorb the water much. I usually take them off after I come out of the hot tub, though.

I don't know for certain but from my experience I have worn them in the shower and continued to wear them for hours afterwards, as they dry quickly. They really are long lasting. But I did try to swim in the pool with them once when I forgot to remove them and they came off in the water. So for me, it seems as though getting them wet is not so much a problem but immersing them fully in water for awhile will loosen them off the skin.

My guess is, no. Not waterproof. They stick pretty well, but also not hard to peel off. Add moisture and I assume they'd come right off. Though I have not attempted to wet one and see if it stayed on.

They are fairly waterproof, but I was only using them to keep a surgical wound dry in the shower. A lot of movement, such as swimming, would probably cause it to loosen. Hope this helps.

I've never used them for swimming. I only use them for sleeping. There's only one way to find out if they work while swimming. Good luck.

They are actually waterproof. I am not sure why the description says waterproof effect.

The gloves are not waterproof. They may protect you from a splash but definitely would not work for submersion.

Yes, they are waterproof for swimming. Not sure about the waterproofcase with the I5

I would say so. They're really waterproof. The only inconvenient is that if they're getting wet inside they'll stay wet for a long time. I think you can wear a pair of thinner gloves underneath if you often have to take the hand out of the glove.

Not sure, i haven't tried them in water. I think they are water resistant not water proof..

I have not swam with them in. However I did wear them in the shower to test the water resistance. Not a single drop of water got past the ear plugs. I think swimming with them in should block the water, just make sure the ear plugs seal properly. Hope this was helpful!

I use them with a drysuit when kayaking with cuffs over and cinched. They are not dry but limited leakage When immersed when entering or exiting boat. Constant and prolonged immersion may pose a problem.

No these will not work in a pool - for swimming I use x-1 waterproof headphones. This after going through 5 different "waterproof" headphones. They are slightly more - but I have been training with them for more than 4 months.

My daughter used these for eye therapy when she was retraining her eyes. She never complained of sweating but she never wore it for more than an hour at a time. The material itself is not cotton, so does not appear as if it will breathe. If you need these patches for a surgery or for long hours of usage I think they would sweat. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful!

Yes! They are waterproof. We have a lake house and swimming dogs. The dogs have also gotten ticks there without the collars.

Not waterproof but they are very comfortable to put on and take off as they are Lycra. I don't think any caps are waterproof as they merely keep hair off the face while swimming.

They have a rubber feel to them so I would imagine that they would be water proof, I wipe them down but I do not submerge them in water.

Yes. Great for swimmers - Fully water resistant making them the most effective exercise tools for measuring your heart rate while involved in water sports. http://www.heartratemonitorsusa.com/polar-t31c.html

I don't think they are suitable for water sports. I haven't taken mine in water yet. A reviewer said that some of the coloration came off the sandal onto her foot when in water. So I stay away from water. Mine are blue.
