Why do you love these goggles?  How are these an improvement over ones that you may have had in the past?

Only ones I buy, seal well and don't cut into the face.

LOL, didn't realize the goggles I used were so popular.  I like the Vanquisher because they keep water out of my eyes.  Tried other larger types but they just didn't seal well for me.

I love the Speedo Vanquisher - I usually buy the women's Vanquisher.  They're the only ones small enough to my face that I like.  I love that they come with different nose pieces, so they are very easy to make fit well.  I've had a pair for about 2 years and still don't feel like I need to replace them yet.

This season, i switched from the Tyr Racetech to the Nest Pro. I am SOOO glad i did! the Nest Pro is a more 'plush' goggle and I dont go back to work after lunch swims with rings around my eyes. In addition, I have had these goggles kicked off a few times and the in water resealing process is quick and super easy.

Speedo Vanquisher

 Comfortable with a great seal.  No fancy stuff - these just work well.

By FAR the Speed socket

Used the ever since they came out while I was still swimming during high school, and have been irreplaceable ever since!!

I use TYR Velocity. I've never had them fall off, their strap stays well without changing sizes, and are reasonably priced. The only goggles I've used for years.

x 2, tried some of the TYR but could not get the right seal.

TYR racetech. They fit my face well, don't have any leakage problems and are comfy. I've tried others that weren't the right fit for my eyes. Plus, they're not too expensive, at least not compared to some brands.

Have used these goggles from my days teaching Swiftwater rescue ! GREAT, GREAT googles...
Great field of vision. I have hade tinted, polarized and clear, all for differant conditions. Very comfortable on the face. These can get smacked a bit during the swim and still remain usable.

I wear these w/ contacts because of my confidence w/ them !

Highly recomend

I swear by the Blue Seventy Visions.  They never fog, they never leak, they come in a variety of colours, the peripheral vision is awesome.  I like the Kaiman's as well, but not quite as much.  The field of view isn't quite as glorious in the Kaiman.

Speedo Vanquisher got my vote. Great fitting goggles for smaller faces. They seal well and hold up to lots of time in the water (and salt water too).
