Any swimmers here?

I swam for about six months two years ago and enjoyed it quite a bit. I did it with two friends who were preparing for BUD/S. I stopped when they left for basic trainning and I think I would like to get back into it.

The goggles that I bought and used back then sucked. They were cheap, and eventually I just stopped wearing them and got used to going without but I want to have a good pair when I start back up.

Any recommendations? I would like to keep the price relatively low since swimming is just a side workout, just to mix it up a little, nothing important enough to spend a lot on. Thanks

My son swims on a swim team and uses the vanquishers. He went through a few other types but really likes these. I have not personally used them but they are very popular with the adults as well.

I have ordered from the linked site also and have had very good service so far from them. (I have not had to test any return policies yet though)

Thanks I may give those a shot.

I will probably just order from amazon.

I use the Vanquishers too.  They're pretty comfortable and don't leak too much if I get them seated right.

Swedish goggles.

Cheap, effective, no seals to wear out. Surprisingly comfortable too.

I don't swim as much as I used to, but the vanquishers are one of the 3 different goggles I own.  I've had them for almost 5 years, and to be honest they're my favorite.
