I wear glasses – do you offer prescription swimming goggles?

Absolutely. We have a great range of Prescription Swimming Goggles at Speedo, across a variety of dioptre options, from -1.5 to -8.0. We also have a ‘build-your-own’ prescription goggle, the Pulse Optical Lens Prescription Goggle Kit (available in 0 to -8.0 dioptres), which allows you to change lenses and cater for any differences in prescription for each eye.

How do I put my goggles on properly?

We suggest starting by holding the lenses snug to your eye sockets until they’re positioned correctly. Hold in place with one hand. Next, pull the goggle strap into place, and re-adjust the lens position if necessary. The best fit will give you a comfortable even pressure around your eye and a slight suction.

My goggles keep fogging up – why?

The scientific answer is that goggles fog when warm air meets the colder-than-air lenses, causing condensation. However, all Speedo swimming goggles include anti-fog technology to prevent fogging, either through an anti-fog coating or technology impregnated during the goggle’s construction. It’s important not to rub the insides of your lenses as this will wipe away the anti-fog coating. The age of your goggles can also be a factor.

Which colour goggle lens is right for me?

From polarized swimming goggles to goggles with mirrored lenses, we offer a range of goggle lens types to suit a variety of environments and light conditions. But which is right for you? Here’s a brief overview:
