How to choose Swimming Goggles

Swimming goggles are always changing, maybe for cosmetic reasons or sometimes to function better. There are hundreds of brands and models around the world. Sized for children or adults, designed for oval or round eye sockets, tinted, clear, hypoallergenic, prescription, or anti-fog, these little things make opening your eyes underwater much more comfortable, and actually let you see where you are going.

One big nuisance is fogged goggles. To help prevent this, a little spit rinsed out with water just before you put them on works - a lot of the time. Otherwise, you may want to get anti-fog goggles or use anti-fog drops.

The most important swimming goggles factor is fit, also known as not leaking. You will need to try out several different types. While at the pool, borrow different styles from other swimmers; tell them why before you ask and you should have no problem, since most of us swimmers are a friendly group.

A few things to consider:
1. A press on fit - without using the strap do the goggles stay on your eyes for more than a split second?

2. A comfortable fit - with adjusting, does the center piece (over the nose) feel right, without cutting your skin? Do they goggles feel good on your eyes with the strap? If they have foam, is it sufficient to both form a seal and cushion the sharp edges of the goggles?

3. Good construction - do they look like they were put together (Swedish goggles excepted) with the proper amount of adhesive used on the foam?

4. A proper tint - smoke or dark colored or mirrored goggles are good for bright areas, while clear or lightly colored are better for dim or indoor use.
