Goggles are hard to find that fit one's face. It will be interesting to know how many different goggles one uses. Maybe some are for lap swim, some are for open water, some are for race? Some people do seem to have a lot of goggles, from the "what is in your swim bag" thread, and I wonder if all those goggles are the same or different?
:cool:
I've got a bunch of different colored goggles - but all are the same style (TYR Socket Rocket 2.0's). Unlike most folks, I seem to be the only one (posting, at least) who is using the same goggles in practice and races. I've had to change colors recently to get a better read on the digital clocks at our pool (some goggle lens colors don't work well with some display colors).
I like the soft coating around the edge of these goggles that makes the TYR version infinitely more comfortable than traditional sweedes - and provide a little better grip. Other than that, they're basically the same goggle as the traditional sweede. Lots of color options and easily customizable.
My experience with the fixed-width nosepiece goggles (ie speedo vanquishers) has not been good, and I always end up back with old faithful.
