Good swimming trunks are important for moving in the water, swimming goggles help you see better underwater, but if you don't care about diving, you should still get good swimming goggles. Swimming goggles of the right size and firmly in place prevent water from getting inside the lenses and do not weigh down the area around the eyes. Aquaction's swimming goggles selection includes a wide range of goggles for competitive swimmers, fitness swimming, open water swimming, as well as a wide range of children's goggles for swimming schools and baby swimming.
How to choose the best swimming goggles for you?
When choosing swimming goggles, you should think about what features you want from the glasses, in swimming goggles aimed at fitness swimming, the focus is on the fit and comfort of use of the glasses, rather than on streamlines. You want the swimming goggles to sit on your head for a very long time, and the swimming goggles must not weigh down or leak. You don't necessarily jump start and you don't need swimming goggles that are as streamlined as possible. Good swimming goggles for fitness swimming are often those with a slightly larger seal and lens part. Popular swimming goggles for active and fitness swimmers are, for example , Arena The ONE swimming goggles , which are designed to fit different faces, the glasses are suitable for both narrow and wide faces. The fit of the swimming goggles is based on the results of product development on the structure of different types of faces. Based on the results, The ONE glasses are designed with Arena's unique Orbit-Proof technology. The area around the eye is the most important part of the face when designing swimming goggles that do not leak. The seals of ONE glasses are designed in such a way that the wider seal is aimed at a wider area of skin around the eyes. Speedo swimming goggles are also a good choice for fitness swimmers, for example Speedo's Futura Biofuse Flexiseal goggles are a great option for fitness swimmers and are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. Biofuse® technology offers extreme comfort every time you swim. The seal is flexible and guarantees a soft feeling around the eyes, creating an excellent fit. Wide lenses improve lateral visibility. Anti-Fog technology reduces lens fogging. This goggle model is one of Speedo's best goggle for fitness and active swimmers.
Competitive swimming is a sport where every second counts, swimming goggles must be streamlined and stay on the face well, but not too heavy. Good swimming goggles for competitive swimming Arena Cobra Ultra Swipe Mirror (with dark lens) and Speedo Fastskin Elite Mirror, these swimming goggles are suitable for both swimming competitions and as training goggles. Racing goggles have many adjustment options, and the goggles can be adjusted for both narrow and wide faces.
Are you looking for swimming goggles with strengths?
Swimming goggles with strengths are irreplaceable for glasses and contact lens wearers. Contact lenses are not recommended for swimmers, as they can expose the eyes to infections or wash away in the water. Optical swimming goggles protect the eyes from, for example, irritation caused by chlorine and microbes in natural waters. They help to see clearly in and under water. Optical swimming glasses are selected according to the prescription of the glasses, if there is a lot of astigmatism, the strengths of your own glasses are honed into the swimming glasses, in which case we recommend turning to eyeglass stores. The most important thing in optical swimming goggles is the fit. Swimming goggles with strengths should be fitted comfortably and check that the nose piece and neck strap can be adjusted sufficiently. Also, make sure that the silicone part around the lenses does not leak or press on the eyes and the skin around the eyes. High-quality swimming goggles do not need to be tightened. The choice of model is also influenced by the intended use of the goggles. Large swimming goggles may be comfortable for fitness swimming, but streamlined swimming goggles with low water resistance are more suitable for competitive swimming. The best swimming goggles from our selection are the Speedo Mariner Optical, with a wide seal and two-piece strap for comfort. and Speedo Aquapure Optical swimming goggles with Speedo's most advanced IQfit™ technology provide comfort time after time.
What are the best swimming goggles for children and young swimmers?
The most important thing about children's swimming goggles is fit and an easy fastening mechanism. Especially for children and young juniors, we recommend choosing children's swimming goggles because they are designed specifically for their facial features. The same familiar things apply to the fit of children's swimming goggles as for adults' swimming goggles. The best-fitting glasses create a gentle and even pressure around the eyes, so the seal does not leak during swimming training. There are many swimming goggles for children in the wide selection, speedo and arena swimming goggles are available in two different sizes; 2-6 year olds and 6-14 year olds.
For children's swimming goggles (2-6 years old), we recommend the easy-to-adjust Speedon Disney Illusion goggles and the Arenan Spider goggles. which is very popular, because the child can easily adjust this himself in the pool thanks to the quick fastening. This glass is suitable for 5-12 year olds, depending on the size of the child's head. The glass is available both with and without a mirror lens. Good choices for juniors (ages 6-14) include Biofuse Flexiseal Junior children's swimming goggles, Hydropulse Junior and Futura Classic Junior swimming goggles.
When a child moves from swimming school to hobby groups and first swimming competitions, you should familiarize yourself with Arena's Cobra swimming goggles and Arena Tracks swimming goggles. Speedo swimming goggles are also a good choice, a popular model is, for example, the Speedo Speed Socket swimming goggles designed for competitive swimmers, which are suitable for both competition and training use.
How do you keep your swimming goggles in good condition for a long time?
Store the goggles in a protective bag or case; this is how you keep your lenses in good condition. Swimming goggles start to fog up when the protective coating wears off. Many manufacturers add an anti-fog treatment to the surface of the lens during manufacture, which extends the life of the goggles. When fogging starts to occur, it can be prevented with the spray intended for that, which you can find here. If the swim arms' strings break, you don't need to buy new glasses, as replacement strings are available as an accessory here. We also recommend storing the goggles in a hard case, which you can find here.
