I am new at Masters swimming and have been enjoying the blogs. I have tried a few different types of goggles but haven't yet found the best combination of comfort, air-tightness, and visibility underwater. What do experienced swimmers believe is the best brand and style?

Good goggles for me:
Speedo Vanquisher - good fit, straps are tight (don't stretch much)
Speedo Speed Socket (for racing) - very low profile
Nike Swim Swift (I wear these now daily)
Nike Remora - kinda like Vanquishers but the straps are more relaxed
Bad goggles:
Speedo Airseal - tends to trap water inside the seal
Speedo Vanquisher 2.0 - worse than the original because they break where the nose piece attaches
