No water in my eyes! November 25, 2008 I decided to swim to get some cardio & lung workouts, which have helped me tremendously so I can start to jog. I am able to swim underwater and not worry about water in my eyes, thanks to these Speedo Vanquisher Plus goggles!!
Good set of goggles November 11, 2008 I have been very pleased with the quality and durability of these goggles. I have been using them for almost a year and would definitely recommend them.
College Swimmer's Review October 31, 2008 This is my 5th year of swimming and my 1st year swimming in college. I've tried a few other brands, but I've found vanquishers to be reliable and water-tight. The mirrored swim goggle is especially nice outside where it's sunny, but can be a little annoying indoors.
Excellent with the exception of the anti-fog October 6, 2008 These are by far the most comfortable goggles I've ever worn. They've sure come a long way from 20 years ago when I swam competitively! They form a perfect but comfortable seal on my face. They do not significantly mark my face (aside from the lack of a tan I'm developing around my eyes).
The straps are great, although at their maximum length they were just able to fit comfortably around my (apparently large) head.
I did have to use one of the provided, smaller nose bridge pieces. They were every bit as hard as others have said to remove! What a nightmare. You have to use so much force you feel like you're sure to break the goggles. But, once I successfully replaced it, I got the wonderful fit described above.
The mirroring is significant and is perfect for a sunny day, even backstroke with the bright sun hitting you straight in the face. I wouldn't recommend them for indoor swimming as it would likely be too dark.
The anti-fog is quite disappointing. Now, about a month after purchase and swimming ~4 times per week, the anti-fog is completely useless. While the pool in which I swim is chlorinated, I took all the steps I could to avoid this loss. I _never_ touched the inside, I avoided getting pool water on the inside, and I washed the goggles out twice, once in freshwater just after exiting the pool, and again when I got home. Nevertheless, they fog up pretty badly. It's possible, however, that my eyelashes are to blame as they brush against the lens if the suction gets strong.
Despite this, I love and highly recommend these goggles and doubt I could find a better product until a more durable anti-fog solution comes along.
Good Goggles October 1, 2008 Work very well, and have them in my school colors (a plus). However the anti fog coating seemed to wear off decently quick, but I do not have anything else to compare it to, so I could be completely misinformed.
