Water in googles

Originally posted by kristilynn nkace I also have close together eyes and a narrow face. I've been using Speedo Sprint goggles forever, and I have no problems with leaking. I've also never lost them off of a start (knock on wood!) I've never had any luck with Swedish goggles, but I've certainly tried. When I was an age group swimmer, it was very un-cool to wear anything except Swedish goggles. I did my best to fit in, but eventually ended up back with my Speedo Sprints. I know that several of the girls that I swam with in college who used Swedish goggles and had for most of their swimming careers actually formed a sort of callus/bump on their upper lid. That always seemed a bit strange to me and gave me another reason to stick with my Speedos. I agree with all of this! I love Speedo Sprint, and have never had a problem with them leaking or falling off. I'm a big fan of the foam...gotta have that foam. I relate to Dara Torres using her "80's goggles" in the 2000 Olympics...once you've found the right pair, you don't want to mess around! Although I will say that they could do a better job warding off fog. I have never had any luck with Swedish, although I also tried in high school. It was cool back then to mix and match pairs to match your school colors. Our colors were red and green...that combination made for a real headache!
