Have bought these a number of times over the years and have always kept them in the plastic case to prevent damage.
Disappointed that there was no case included this time.
Price also gone up from 18 to 31 since 2019
I think these are excellent, dont suck your eyes out, very clear and comfortable, leaving hardly any marks if any around the eyes
These goggles are exceptional – no panda rings, no leakage, and they fit across a wide range of shapes and sizes of face. There are none better!
The suction on these are very good and I have tried 2 others from the company that weren’t as good.
My situation only niggly fault with them is the view can get distorted going vertically. To be fair it’s not so noticeable in the water, but anything out of the water can look distorted either side of your centre of vision.
Apart from that, they don’t fog up (unlike another I tried), the suction is great and can still work great even indoors.
I have deep set eyes, and don’t get on well with traditional goggles. These are a bit bulky, but do a fantastic job. Over time, they start to fog, but easily remedied by allowing a small amount of water in. With heavy use, they discolour over time, but i get very good use for at least a year.
Comfortable and leak proof if worn carefully, easy to adjust. They don’t leave nasty marks around your eyes and can be worn over a thin swimming hat. I wear them every day and though I have replaced each pair eventually, they have lasted well over a year, maybe two.
Used many cheap goggles before but switched to these after they were recommended by a fellow open water swimmer. Great suction and a comfortable fit. Only time they let in water is when I’ve not spent a little extra time getting them on correctly – not overlaying with a swim hat. As for steaming up – I always use a anti fog spray and have never relied on the coating on any goggles. The spray is the only solution to fogging.
Excellent swim goggles. They stick firmly in place (so long as you have squeaky clean face ie no sun cream)
Very comfortable and great all round vision. The best I’ve ever had. I rinse them in fresh water after use, let them dry naturally (do not wipe with fingers) and replace into box to protect lenses from scratches.
I am unable to wear goggles because I have an oddly shaped face, so swim masks are ideal for me. I always buy these Aqua Sphere masks. Wide vision, not bulky and easy to adjust. My only reservation is that they don’t retain their anti fog properties, but I don’t think any goggles or masks do either.
I’ve always had leaky goggles. This fixes the issue. The only problem is that they are not designed for fast swimming. The air get stuck around the nose area when I dive in for some reaso
it’s my second Aqua Sphere Vista Swimming mask and I really like them. No deep marks below my eyes when I take the mask off, but at times there is still a little water going in. Need to tighten up the strap very tight… hope it doesn’t break.
Bought these for my husband as I’d previously bought something similar for my Grandson and he really rated the style. They have a thumbs up too from my husband who usually spends a lot of time getting his goggles to fit correctly. Apparently these are very easy to put on, the water doesn’t get in and the vision is good which is praised indeed!
If you’re not interested in maxing out hydro dynamics to squeeze out every possible millisecond of time, and/or you’re prioritising the ability to maintain a watertight seal with minimal discomfort, then this is a no brainer purchase. Keeping the water out will no longer involve sucking out your eyeballs at the same time. The excellent field of view provided by these goggles is an added bonus.
If you swim wearing contact lenses then these are the pair to buy…this is my second pair of Aqua Spheres and they certainly keep the water out of your eyes. The size and shape of the aqua sphere range over the last few years has come down in size, my first pair were quite large when I bought them about 7 years ago..my new pair are really good, and I’ve worn them plenty of times in the sea this year.
Purchased these for my first triathlon as I wear contacts and wanted to wear them through the swim phase. These googles did the trick. OK, they are a little big big, but they fitted my face perfectly and not even a drop of water leaked in which was my main objective. I rinsed the inside of the googles in water before the swm and despite it being a hard swim, no misting. Highoy recommended
These are my favourite Aqua Sphere goggles which give excellent visibility and these are now ‘neater’ in shape than they used to be, so that they do not overwhelm the face whilst still providing excellent vision.
I am a huge fan of Aqua Sphere goggles. I moved to them from Speedo and Zoggs about 15 years ago and have never wanted to move back. When I’ve had to borrow other people’s googles at times I have been relieved to get back to my Aqua Spheres.
I have tried pretty much all the styles – I prefer the larger Aqua Sphere goggles such as these and the Aqua Sphere Ladies/Womens Seal 2.0 Clear Lens Swimming Mask . They are unmatched for pure comfort and the sense of not having my vision restricted. The Aqua Sphere Kayenne Women’s Goggle and AQUA SPHERE Kaiman Exo Goggles Clear Lens are the ones most like standard goggles and yet still have very good 180 degree vision. This colour way is attractive and there is the usual good anti-fog function – though I also use the Aquasphere anti-fog spray Aqua Sphere Anti-Fog Solution – 30cc when this deteriorates. As another reviewer has mentioned one of the best aspects of these googles is that they are easy to adjust and form a good seal with no leakage.
Pros
+ Excellent design for 180 degree vision, good fit and good anti-fog
+ Comes with hard case for safe storage
+ Compact, non obstrusive size
Cons
– Anti fog does deteriorate after some months but can be topped up with use of the spray
These are great goggles, the field of view is excellent and they fit well. I’ve used these for around 18 months, predominantly in the pool which I think has contributed to the degradation of the anti-fog of the lens inside the goggle (regular exposure to chlorine will do this, and I probably should have been more diligent in rinsing after use). I will buy the same pair again to replace my old ones.
Excellent visibilitoy but it took considerable fiddling with strap tension and positioning on my face to stop any leaks during a prolonged swim in the pool. Misted up n fourth outing but seemed to clear after a few lengths. I would buy again, however.
Ecellent goggles (at least after two weeks of use). Larger than those that just go around your eyes they provide clear vision for full 360 degrees and come with a handy case. My feeling is that this style fits better than the smaller around-the-eye ones. The seal is very good with just gentle pressure and no strap. In case it helps, the way I put them on is to fully loosen the strap, then press on to the face, then lightly tighten the strap on both sides. So far I have only used them in the pool for lap swimming so cannot yet comment on performance in salt water.
make sure they fit as described in other reviews good for not leaving the swimming face……but they do mist a little after a bit of use otherwise work well.
I don’t often write these reviews, but walking back from the pool where I have just used these new goggles, I felt compelled to share my thoughts.
These are without doubt the best goggles I have ever used. Easy to adjust, easy to get on, stay really clear, do not leak AT ALL.
The model they replace are good, but these are a significant advance. These will work well for pool or sea. They are fantastic.
I bought these when I decided it was about time I overcame my fears and learned to swim properly. These were recommended by a friend who swims in the lake. They were perfect for me and together with a nose clip they gave me the confidence boost that I needed. I recommended them to others in the group who subsequently bought them and loved them as much as I did. I got them for a good price as I think they were last year’s colour.
Very well made and clear goggles, I like them!
Great viability and they don’t fog up.
Not very traditional in design a little bigger, heading towards a face mask!
My wife is a very good swimmer and doesn’t like the hydrodynamics, that’s drag to you and I, I don’t think I swim fast enough for that to be a problem!
I have tried Speedo goggles and found the anti-mist coating does not last and are generally uncomfortable to wear. My swimming coach suggested these Aqua Sphere goggles they are fantastic, very comfortable to wear with extremely good vision. The sealing around the face is a soft silicone and actually adheres to the face without the strap proving they are a perfect fit. They come in a reusable hinged storage case. and I would have no hesitation in recommending these to anyone, very deserving of 5 stars.
I would recommend this product to serious swimmers, the lens’s being quiet large and confortable to wear. On the downside I find they do let in water if face is not dry or has been moisturised before the swim as not such a good suction.
With normal goggles it can take several hours for the marks around my eyes to fade and I usually get bruising on the thin skin under my eyes and on either side of my nose. With these goggles I still get marks (which are not as pronounced or long lasting) but I no longer get the bruising. I’m female and the seal is fine. There is some fogging but I’ve never found a pair of goggles which didn’t. Very pleased with these.
