Effortless Swimming
The Great Ocean RT Buoyancy Shorts are designed to elevate your swimming training by offering the perfect balance of buoyancy, comfort, and natural movement.

Yamamoto 3.0mm on the side panels for easy on/off
Hydrophobic coating for speed and efficiency through the water.
2mm 39 cell panels on the outer leg provide enhanced stretch, ensuring a better fit for a wider range of body shapes. Easier to take the shorts on and off
5 mm Yamamoto neoprene panels elevate the hips and legs, helping you sit higher in the water and hold a naturally streamlined, efficient body position.

I thought the last review I wrote was for these but, clearly, I was wrong. So sorry. It is these goggles that are the best and the most comfortable goggles I’ve ever worn. They don’t leak and I can’t even feel them on my face when I’m swimming. Also, they don’t fog up even after swimming laps for just under an hour. Plus, I never have red marks when I take them off.
Just did a 70.3, zero fog! Can’t say enough about these goggles. Highly recommend!
The best goggles! No leaking, yet they are soft and comfortable, even for someone with past eye and face injuries.
These goggles helped me survive my longest swim yet: 1.9km in the ocean pool. No leaks, no fogging, no adjustments. Just clear vision and a comfortable fit all the way through. Thanks Guys, they look class too 🙌
I love the clarity and comfort of these goggles. They literally do not fog up! I initially couldn’t get a tight seal and didn’t understand how to tighten the straps. I considered sending them back for a refund, but sent an email to Customer Service about my experience. And boy was I impressed! I received a very nice and supportive email from Ivan, suggesting I put the goggles under my cap and explained better how to adjust them. I swam this evening and what a game changer! The clarity underwater is absolutely freaking amazing! I felt more connected with the water during my workout. I’m competing in the State Games of America in a few weeks and finally have more excitement to train with a pair of goggles that will allow me to see the wall! Lol. I’m also registered for the Huntsman World Senior Games in St. George, Utah this October. I’ll be defending my gold medal in the 200 m freestyle. Can’t wait to compete with these goggles!
Very happy kids ~ no more foggy swims!
Did two warm up swims in and committed to using it for a 70.3! No issues, really nice low light lens, and the mirror was great for sunrise glare on the way back. Have had a number of swims since with no issues. Cheers!
These are the best goggles I've ever used by far. They don't leak. The clarity is unprecedented. I could see the pollen plumes going by as I was swimming in the pond this morning. They're also comfortable and don't hurt my eyes from pressure which is really great.
this google are as useful as they are beautiful. you can see so clear underwater you forget you are under water with google. 100/10 fully recommended
I’m blind as a bat -2.5 , I’m absolutely loving these goggles, it’s making sighting so much better plus I can now see the wildlife clearly! 3 weeks, averaging about 12 mi per week and no fogging so far.

Good fit no leak
like promised, no fog, good fitting goggles, no hassle, liked it at once
Loved it at once like promised, no fog, good fitting goggles, no hassles...normally I'm wearing brider goggles, but this one still satisfied
Superb fit and comfort, and no fogging!! Excellent!
These are my first prescription goggles, and they’ve helped put joy back into my lap swims! I can see underwater again! My flip turns are improving now that I can better calculate the exact distance to the end of the lane. Also, these are the most high-quality goggles I’ve ever owned they are fog free and easy to adjust to create a seal around my eyes. Best goggles I’ve ever owned, and they’ve improved are well worth the investment.

Absolutely love HydroClear AF2000 (this resembles more like speedo vanquisher 3.0, really good for someone who loves just eyes coverage) No leaks, rubber sits perfectly PS: this is from my experience, everyone has different face shape so you need to try few to figure out what's best for you
Unfortunately recon doesnt fit my face and it leaks (my face fits a smaller/narrow type), but this is absolutely a great googles for someone prefers a wide lens and the vision inside the water is so clear PS: this is from my experience, everyone has different face shape so you need to try few to figure out what's best for you
There’s are unreal for clarity and fit, so comfortable! Where have you been all my life?
I wore these goggle during my mile open water swim in the Escape the Cape triathlon in Cape May, NJ. They stayed on jumping off the Lewes-Cape May Ferry and did not fog on the mile swim. I bought these goggles specifically for the anti-fog guarantee because if my goggles fog-up then I am unable to see my target/destination on the shore. Very happy with this purchase!
They were absolutely amazing!!! Very clear underwater and much better than the previous googles I had purchased. Love these!!
It’s really super comfortable, but it massively marked my face. When I keep it loose, it slips from my face every time I push from the wall of the pool, so I had to tighten and mark my face. On open water it was better. I so wanted it not to mark my face, that’s what I was buying for. It doesn’t fog.
They’re just what works best for me
Clearest goggles I’ve ever used
Still leaves marks around my eyes. Loosening strap doesn’t help because then they leak.
Delivered on time great packaging
Comfortable, flexible, easily adjustable strap, wide lens, no goggles marks, no fogging, love them
In action in the English Channel swimming
I recently participated in a 6 person relay of the English Channel swimming from Dover, England to France, and back (E-F-E). I selected Effortless Swim goggles because they are wider than typical goggles. This was important for comfort in open water and for medical reasons related to minimizing pressure on my eyes. The goggles worked perfectly! They were very comfortable on my four plus legs and didn’t leak or fog up at all. Complete success!
I was looking for a new goggle that will get me through long swim races, without fogging up! These could be it finally!!
A fantastic pair of goggles. They live up to the hype. Fog free for the entire ocean swim. Very comfortable and easy to adjust, even in the surf. These are the swimming goggles I’ve been wanting for years. Thank you Effortless Swimming
Absolutely LOVE the Effortless goggles! I have used these in a regular lap pool as well as for open water lake swimming, and they've been so impressive. No fogging, which I've always struggled with in other brands. Plus, these are super comfortable and look good. 5 easy stars! Effortless will be my go-to! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
I haven't had a chance to test the new goggles in the water yet due to the fires and hazardous air quality here in Spokane. I did try them on, though, and they fit great and feel really comfortable. I'm looking forward to getting in the pool as soon as the air clears up.
So clear! Used them for a long swim set and they were so comfortable. The pair I wore leaked a tiny bit, but as soon as I tightened them by 2 notches they were completely fine
Very comfortable, clear lens, no fogging and no leaking!! Amazing goggles
I really wanted to love these goggles and the promise of ‘no more raccoon eyes’ but unfortunately they still left marks and indentations after a 45 min swim. They only leaked slightly and did stay fog free, but overall I am disappointed.
I have been testing these goggles during my swim training, and what impressed me most was the crystal clear vision. I could see clearly both above and below the water without constantly stopping to adjust or wipe the lenses. The anti-fog protection worked really well throughout my session, and the comfortable seal stayed secured without feeling too tight around my eyes. No leaking, no distraction pressure, just a comfortable fit and clear vision from start to finish. When you are focused on your technique and performance, reliable goggles make all the difference, and these definitely delivered.
i like them but they were fogging up and leaked a little
I absolutely love my nano clear goggles. They do not fog up, they look cute on me, and they stay secure! Win! Win! Win!
A great pair of neoprene water buoyancy shorts! Very comfortable and warm in the open water. The right size too.
Super good and comfortable these swimming goggles like in the pool and open water, they are very light and match very well to the sockets of the eyes in conclusion they are super good, they also do not fog up nor do they have filtration of any kind...
