" ... These goggles fit well and were comfy. ... "
" ... Very comfortable, easy to adjust, and they stay in place no matter how hard you swim. ... "
" ... They fit great, feel comfortable, don't leak and are very clear. ... "
" ... Fit his head well. ... "
" ... Decades of buying Speedo goggles and tried a few others but none of them were both comfortable and had no leaks. ... Silicon around eyes is deeper which makes for a better seal and keeps nose bridge up off your nose. ... "
" ... If you'll look closely at the reviews on other goggles they're often uncomfortable or pinch the bridge of your nose. ... I'd rather pay a few dollars more for quality and comfort. ... "
" ... Straps are long enough to allow a comfortable fit on a larger head. ... I wear my contacts under these with no problems. ... "
" ... Great goggles for all size heads ... "

" ... My 11 year old daughter used this for swim practice and the plastic side broke after just 2 weeks. ... "
" ... The silicone material used for the eye piece is poor quality! ... "
" ... A little stiff and heavy feeling out of the packaging. ... "
" ... The piece that holds the strap broke off. ... "
" ... When I went to use them later, the plastic around the eyes was bent beyond repair, and the nose piece was bent forward. ... "

" ... Don't touch the lenses. ... "
" ... Don't touch or wile inside off lenses or you will mess up antifog coating. ... "
" ... BUT the WORST part is there is a film on the lenses that won't come off! ... "
" ... I am also not crazy about the tinted lens. ... "
" ... My only complaint is that the lens surface tends to trap air bubbles as I swim laps. ... "
" ... The lens is completely blurry. ... "
" ... Just after the first couple of uses, there is some sort of film on the lenses, making the view very foggy and distorted. ... Then one of the lenses started to crack and slowly expand into a larger crack. ... The only good thing was that they fit comfortably, but if the lenses are going to get a film on them and start to crack with extremely mild use, don't both wasting your money or time with them. ... "
" ... the goggles fit well but the "nest" around the external lens face traps bubbles as I exhale under water. ... "
