"Finally, goggles that stay clear for the entire swim. Game-changer."
Jenny D.
"I’ve tried every goggle out there. This is the first that actually lives up to the promise."
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.
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!
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.
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.
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

I wasn't sure about my Strike goggles in my pool sessions because at times they would fog up and leak on my push off. I am a very seasoned swimmer and know how to adjust my goggles to fit my face, which I do like about the Strike googles with their interchangeable nose pieces. BUT I LOVE THEM NOW! I completed an ocean swim over the Great Barrier Reef and my goggles were amazing! I could see the reef and wildlife clearly all the way through my swim. No fog. No leaks. Even in the rough conditions. Thank you!
Really found it challenging to change the nose bridge and then still leaking when swimming. After about 3 attempts I think I might have it right🤷♀️. I do love the vision through the goggles. I’m using “strike” but will try “flex” haven’t tried “viper “ yet.
Such a great pair of goggles, the fit is amazing. No leaks or fog! Plus they look great. I’ve even lent them out to a guy swimming in my lane who complained to be about his googles and he said the difference was “night and day”
Fantastic goggles, seals really nicely to my face and doesn’t fog up! Comfortable and doesn’t need adjusting at all while I swim, really crisp and clear lenses
The googles are great, they did not move or fog up at all in my pool squad swim. This is the first time I have not needed to adjust googles during training. Highly recommended!!
Worth it- 5 stars 🌟
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!
So I see these awesome goggles advertised and read all the reviews and think “I’ve got to try these!” Picked up two pairs, Nano Flex blue mirror (for super sunny days) and smoke green (for cloudy days/evenings).
First 4 laps, there was water coming in so I was skeptical. Turns out I didn’t have them tight enough. A little squeeze and they were good to go for another km 🙌 Maybe I had them too tight cause I still felt the rings around my eyes afterwards, but could barely see them on my (squinty) face.
They’re pretty cool as they’re nice and wide so block out all the sun (mirror ones) and have space for long eyelashes and good for contacts wearers (eg-me!)
When I told my partner I’d spent $135 on two pairs of new goggles he blew up a bit 🤭 but I can see the value in them and this will encourage me to swim even more often than my once a week routine! I’d say give them a go yourself!
Thanks Brenton and team! x
Fantastic goggles — tested in the waters of Sicily! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I bought my Effortless Swimming goggles specifically for a week-long SwimTrek trip in Sicily, and after swimming in them every day, I can honestly say they were fantastic.
They were incredibly comfortable, stayed securely in place, didn’t leak, and gave me excellent visibility in the open water. Most importantly, I could put them on at the beginning of a long swim and simply forget about them — no constant adjusting or fussing.
We swam in some spectacular conditions around the Sicilian islands, and these goggles performed beautifully throughout the entire week. The mirrored lenses were particularly good in the bright Mediterranean sun.
I’ve worn a lot of goggles over many years of swimming, and finding a pair that fits well enough that you stop thinking about them is surprisingly difficult. These did exactly that.
They’ll absolutely be coming with me on my next open-water adventure. Highly recommended!!
**Photo from my SwimTrek in Sicily — goggles very much in action!* 🏊♀️🇮🇹
Clear vision through 30 min of swimming and didn’t need to adjust a single time during the 30 min swim. Love it. I thought my head was big with 7 and 3/4 hat size but needed small nasal bridge to fit my eyes. Thanks for including different nasal bridges. Also the nose bridges are much better designed than previous versions. Now they are secure and stable.
I loved my experience wearing these goggles. They were so comfortable for over 2 hours of open-water swimming. The bay was chilly (65F) but there was no goggle fog!
