I use a small black (about 2.5 inch) claw clip to hold my hair out of the way while swimming. I roll up my hair at the back of my head and put the clip over the roll. No comments about it, in the 18 times I've used it so far.
I've never seen any other guys wear claw clips, anytime. Does any one else use them?
To me the "claw clip" isn't something that anyone would wear as a decoration, even though they come in all sorts of colors. In my opinion it's strictly a utilitarian device. I carry a couple of them (one red, one yellow) in my gym bag and occasionally use one when I want to keep my hair up off my neck and back. Frankly, I never gave it a second thought, and I don't think anyone else did either. But then, it's always been my experience that most people at the gym don't have time to look at you -- we're all too busy looking in the mirrors.
