I find the small, competition style goggles, such as the Swedes, very uncomfortable to wear. Granted, in a race, every small factor matters for that split second difference, still, I wonder how much difference does the goggle shape make? Has anyone actually experimented? Is the difference enough to be worth giving up the comfort one needs in long distance swimming? It seems to me the comfort level is in this order:
Swedes "hybrids" with silicone skirts

Thanks all for your input. I'll feel less guilty to use whatever comfortable while others around me swim in their Swedes :D. The car example is great. Looks like it will take me a while to reach the level when goggle style matters for me. Right now, I'm bicycle level (may not be a bad idea to wear goggles to ride bicycle for experiment :D).
