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.

Yes, this is perfect for open water swimming and/or swimming in a very cold pool. It has a lot of flexibility. Water doesn't enter the neck of mine, and I purchased it a size too big for easier on/off.

As long as it is tight fitting, I think this would be perfect for keeping you warm while swimming laps!

I'm glad you asked. I competed In USS, and later coached High School swimming, water polo, and a USS Swimming team. I bought this unit specifically to do workouts in the pool. It will take some adjusting/playing with the unit, but it will fit snugly and hold in place, under your goggle strap. I wouldn't try diving in with it though. It's amazing what it'll do for your workout intensity!

All goggles leak from my experience...the only question is when. Or the lenses get all gooey and filmy and therefore are worthless. So there is a dance between which will fail first. I swim everyday so goggles last me only a month or so. The larger aqua sphere goggles leak the fastest as they have more rubber surface to potentially get exposed to the elements and deteriorate. The smaller goggles, as these are are comparable to Speedos and TYRs

It is a wet suit not a dry suit so you will still get wet. I am not sure how flexible it is for "real" swimming. We used them to basically float around while snorkeling, for which they worked great and kept us warm.

I think if you are a strong, fast swimmer they may come loose..... This could be remedied by using goggles to secure them, or a swimming cap. I do a fast side stroke and I haven't had any problem with them coming off while swimming. I also do a slow- medium freestyle and I haven't had a problem with them. I love them....for the price, give them a try. You could always use them for relaxing pool time or work-outs...

Yes... I am a new swimmer, but a mature woman .. I tried longer fins at my pool, but they felt clumsy. These are perfect for me. They help me move through the water, and work a bit harder. I love them. I ready one review about pressure on your arches, which is true. If you have a high arch you need to stretch them a bit. but they are worth the effort. New swimmer

It is waterproof for swimming both before and after a battery change per the manufacturer. I had no leakage issues after opening the case several times.

We are using it in the pool for the first few weeks of swim team. Our outdoor pool just opened, and our practices start next week, and I'm expecting it to still be to chilly to swim without something like this :) I just plan to make sure to rinse it after every practice.If you are asking if it will be too warm in the summer, I'm not sure about that. It would be warmer than just a regular swim suit.

A dive skin might be better than a wetsuit for lap swimming. However, I did a lot of diving with this and found it to be very comfortable and 'effortless,' so lap swimming might be okay if you are willing to strain your muscles slightly against its natural tendency to spring back to neutral position. The size is perfect for me - it is a size 14 and I am a size 14/16.

Hi. Bought this for my husband and he uses it for snorkeling and sometimes swimming. He really likes it.

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.

I use it for sports. It doesn't fog for me, but sometimes a little sweat gets inside. Overall it works great for me.

I wash my face first. Put on the cap, then put the strap behind my head and pull the goggles down over my eyes. Give them a little push to create a mild suction. Feel along the outside edges to make sure the goggles aren't overlapping the cap. They didn't leak at all during a three hour swim. Adjusting them during a swim with a wet face makes them a little leakier. Don't make them too tight.

sorry, never tried to swim w/it. It doesn't have a problem w/sweat, if that helps.

It stays pretty secure on my knee if fitted properly even when I am pouring with sweat. I suggest you carefully consider the size you get to make sure it is right. As far as swimming I would assume it would stay still.
