Is this good for practice lap swimming? I need one that is comfortable for long swimming, doesn't leak and doesn't get foggy.

I bought these and they are quite comfortable and doesn't leak. Only issue is that the strap broke in less than 2 month of the use. Straps are hard to find and if at all you find them, they are expensive.

Yes, absolutely. They feel silky, no leaking (once you fit them to your head), no fogging up. You can swim forever with these goggles.

I use these for lap swims, they seem to fog up a little some times but if I take them off and swish the fog with my thumb it doesn't usually fog up again. My swims usually last between 30 and 45 minutes.

I think they're pretty good. I use them for hour-long practices and they're very comfortable and rarely leak. Normally any leak just requires readjusting them once and then they're good the whole practice. As for being foggy, they still fog up as much as my last pair of Speedos, so that would be the only downside. I still feel like they're not quite as foggy as other goggles I've used, though.

I'd say the air swimmers are better. They are the original and not a cheap knockoff. Had I known that at the time, I would have gotten the air swimmers. From what I've read on the reviews, they are made with better quality.

As long as you use it within the confines of what it says from the manufacturer, it should be okay. i only ever use mine when i run or am in the gym, it is sealed from sweat. and has been great in pouring rain. have never gone to swim with it though...

Not at all. Matter of fact, while swimming laps, I don't need to take these off and clean them. They do not seem to fog, and are extremely comfortable. Maybe the pair you received are defective.

Well, I'm not an advanced swimmer, so I'm not entirely sure, but the shirt is lightweight and the material is good - like a compression shirt, but not thick. I think you could swim laps in it, as surfers wear these when wading out into the ocean. It makes for a good athletic shirt, as well, as I even wore this in the class before my swim class to run a mile for a test. I didn't overheat, and it felt cool and my arms could move freely as I ran.

I used this snorkel set in Kona on the big island and had no trouble with them. We also went out on the Body Glove tour boat, and they worked well for that. I think that people have too high expectations for this set. It's not a set you'd use with tanks. I had no trouble in twenty-five feet of water, on a nice day, and was able to dive down about Fifteen feet. I think I could have gone deeper if I could have held my breath longer. They are a little big for kids. My daughter had trouble with her mask leaking.

I would stray away from this one. I bought it for long dirt bike rides where you can get extremely exhausted miles away from water. This one leaked since the first time I tried it. It was very cold out and my back was soaked. Also, the nozzle was a big let down. You actually have to open and close it like a pop-up water bottle. My buddy bought a fox brand water pack and has had it for over a year, on multiple rides. He has fallen on it and it has never leaked. His nozzle is also a great design. It is a soft material and all you do is bite it gently and suck. No hands needed. Hope this helps.

If you are looking for something to use a lot, I would go to a dive shop and get fit for a mask. I have an older mask that I got at a dive shop that is much more comfortable. The fins were very comfortable, and easy to pack. I would recommend for anyone that wants a set that will easily fit in a suitcase.

I have used mine for swimming as it is water resistant to 50 meters. However, if the screen is wet the touch sensor that moves you between screens does not work without drying it off first. All in all, I've been satisfied with my purchase, though.

The suit is fairly stretchy, and easier to swim in than a full suit. I haven't really tried to swim many laps with it on, although I have worn it in the pool and swum a few laps. It wouldn't be my first choice to swim laps with a wet suit on, but once you're in the water, this suit is comfortable.

I bought this for my son but in an adult size I think it would be very comfortable to swim laps in. Rash guards are great for that .

I have used these as a backup pair for airsoft and hadn't had real fogging issues, but I'd go ahead and use anti-fog if you have any and if not there is a trick with dish soap you can look up.

Be sure to do the water test EVRY time before you are going in the water. I take it kayaking usually but the other day I went swimming a little and it did great! I wouldn't trust it diving deep or staying wet for a long time but I wouldn't ANY CASE!

I don't know . I use those for my swim goggles only . I noticed however that my goggles will get foggy ( despite the Artificial spit) if i will shower with hot water before entering the pool ( simulating the body heat scenario). It is a good idea - I may try it in the winter.

I've read other reviews claiming that the strap broke for them as well. (It seemed the strap was made of very nice, soft rubber, so it's a shame!) I would suggest contacting the seller/producer. I returned my pair of Ispeed goggles, since they leaked and visibility under water was blurred. I replaced them with a Speedo Air Seal XR, which seems much better aligned to my narrow face. The best fit I've got so far, however, is from a Speedo Vanquisher 2.0.

You can use it for lap swimming but should note that the ribbing on teh edge of the sleeves and the legs is a bit tight...even with many uses, I found them tight.

Yes, Lukewarm water is fine but I'd also consider paying $5 more for Bluewave or something else with a little tip to have air flow for smooth water flow. This one, I have to leave the cap slightly open vs Bluewave brands w an air breather.
