Nice but not enough tint because you can still see my eyes through the front.

By l1ntz

i got it to see how bad it is and i hate it simply cause the goggle digs in to ur eyes badly, pushing off the walls u feel this tiny bit of drag, adjust is quite annoying and the straps broke in the couple minutes i wore it

I replaced the rubber strap with the string/rubber casing. It makes it much more comfortable if you fit it exactly to your eyes. They leak a bit when you dive, but pushing them into your eyes to increase the seal solves the problem. These are better than swedes because of the rubber which gives a seal and increases comfort. The reflective covering looks amazing and keeps out the sun.

I really like these goggles. I have been a competitive swimmer for years, and I am getting back into the sport. The nose piece is very easy to adjust, and I really like the additional rubber ring around the goggle. It makes the goggles extremely comfortable. If you are looking for a low profile goggle, these are great.

By Dr_ZAP

Not only are these reasonably priced, but they work better than goggles that cost twice as much. They are also sleek and stylish.

By swimmin beast

when i first got these goggles they worke dperfect they never leeked or anything of the sort but over the summer in august i had a 1 month break and when i came back in september i put the goggles on and dove into the pool and they started filling up with water that instint. i had to get out of my practice and get another pair.overall great goggles just use them alot i would say use 3 times per week if your on break from practice.

By Mfoge

I like these goggles! I like the flexible nose piece. My nose is a little larger than most and a bit crooked. I bought some other rather expensive gogs with a fixed nose bridge and they instanly leaked. You can adjust these while you have them on. Theyre very similar to the swedes but adjustable and they have a tiny gasket. I am a bit skeptical about how long the nosestrap will hold up though. We'll see...

I've been swimming for a long time, they are comfortable and smooth

11/27/2008 Yeeeah!

By Eva Nymoen R.

they do not leak, and are easy to adjust, also for the young ones. My ten year old son have used these glasses a while and is really satisfied that they do not let any water in. Best buy ever.

11/22/2008 SWEET GOGGLES!!

By Butterfly Boy

Theese goggles are awsome excellent for sprint's. No drag at all.

By Luke H

i used to wear speedo vanquishers, and then switched over to the typ socket rockets. They are much cheaper, more comfortable, the straps last much longer. they come with two nose peices. They look more intimidating. They hardly ever leak. Overall just a great pair of goggles. I wear the normal pairs in practice. Then have a couple pairs of he metalized for meets. Highly recommended.

5/8/2008 Great Alternative to Swedish

By Brendan Smith

These are a bit more durable than swedish goggles and have many of the same features. Low profile lenses provide the perfect, leakproof fit, and the straps are high quality which is typical of TYR goggles. Also a bit more comfortable to wear. My personal favorite.

5/8/2008 Good Looking and Fast

By Scott

I've bought two pairs of this same goggle. They are pretty comfortable and look stealthy. Pretty much freakin' intimidate the guy next to you. I use these for regular swimming and triathlons. They do seem to fog a little after using a while, but easily taken care of by putting a couple shots of anti-fog spray in the lenses. If you want a pair of the coolest looking goggles on earth, get these.

1/17/2008 Not the best

By Anonymous person

Goggles were fine, wear well, and comfortable. However the straps started to shredd after only a few months of moderate use. I expect better and so should you.

1/17/2008 Socket Rockets

By Anonymous person

I've been using Swedes and SR's for a while now and find that it's up to personal preferance. The socket Rockets are quite nice. However, the reflective side can be scratched fairly easily and at some point are hard to see out of. On the other hand, they are a bit more comfortable than swedes because of the padding. They are worth buying if you don't abuse them...
