I'm leaving for college in a few days and figured I'd buy a few pairs of swedes for recreational swimming since I lost my other pair. Anyways, I was browsing swimoutlet and came across "sporti antifog swedish goggles" for pretty cheap, and they come with a bungee strap. I just wanna know if quality's any different from swedish brand swedes, which I've grown quite attached to. I like the idea of the bungee strap coming with them, but if the plastic for the goggles aren't any good, I'd rather order separately and pay a bit more.
Thanks for any insight, I need to know sorta soon so I can order them asap since I move in on sunday, but no rush.

I bought the Sporti version of the Vanquisher about a year ago. They started fogging up after a few practices (no fingers, nothing put in the lens). Of course, the last 2 Vanquishers I've gotten have fogged up on the first use so maybe saving the $10 is worth it for Sporti and a few more times in the water before fogging.
I had the same experience with the Sporti version of the Vanquisher. I also found that the lenses scratched more easily and the goggles themselves developed leaks sooner. You may not have that issue with the Swedes, though. They're so cheap that they're worth a try.
