How many *different* goggles do you use?

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:

  • When my Aqua Sphere Lady Kayenne goggles flooded as a result of a manufacturing defect, I had SwimOutlet.com replace them with Aqua Sphere Seal XPT goggles. Several of the reviewers said the goggles didn't leave marks, however, these are leaving the worst marks ever and making the dark circles under my eyes worse. I love the visibility and comfort of these goggles, but the (excellent!) suction is working too well, even when I keep the strap very loose and try to keep the suction loose. Swimming increases the water presssure to on the goggles; especially when I do SDK drills. Does anybody have a suggestion for this? I have tried applying Vaseline around my eyes before I use my goggles, but my eyes still look like I've been beaten up after a swim workout. I would love to find a solution, because these are the most comfortable goggles I've found yet: www.swimoutlet.com/.../13063.htm Thanks!
