Alright, who is using the Magic5 goggles?

Wondering how many people here have tried those. I contributed to their kickstart campaign. Was going to get some for my daughters, but they never would actually do the face scan, so I lost that investment. Eventually decided to get some for myself. Initially loved them. Bought two pair, a clear (well, blue) one, and a lightly tinted one. Got a 3rd dark pair for outdoor swimming in the middle of the day. That pair never worked as well. At any rate, at this point, none of them work particularly well. They leak, and they make my eye sockets sore. All of them. I kind of joke to myself that they were indeed magic, for about 5 weeks. So I'm back to vanquishers. Wondering if anyone else had similar or better or worse experiences.

    Every goggle I tried would leak on starts or by the end of practice... almost always in my right eye. After years I finally got sick of it, took a recommendation to try Magic5, and now I could not go back!

    If your current goggles aren't doing it for you, and you have asymmetrical eyes or facial features that tend not to be accommodated by standard goggles, I think they're worth trying. (One way to figure out if asymmetry might be why your goggles don't work for you is leaking or discomfort that is mainly on one eye, or in different places on each eye.)

    Everyone else: you can probably get high quality goggles that fit your face just fine for way less. For the price of one Magic5 pair, you could try 2-4 pairs from other brands.

    I really love mine, though, and I love that they are sized and shaped differently on each eye but still look like nice normal goggles on me.

    Hope this helps someone :-)
