FAQs

How does the Swipe Anti-Fog technology work?

The Swipe technology applies a special coating to the inside of the lenses. By gently wiping the lens with your finger, you physically reactivate this coating, restoring its anti-fog properties for clear vision.

How often do I need to use the Swipe Anti-Fog feature?

The frequency depends on usage conditions (temperature, humidity). Generally, you might need to reactivate it every few minutes or when you notice fogging. It's designed to be reactivated easily whenever needed.

Are these goggles suitable for competitive racing?

While they offer excellent clarity and comfort for fitness swimming, they are optimized for comfort and general use rather than the ultra-low profile and hydrodynamic design favored by elite racers. They are derived from competition goggles but adapted for fitness.

Can I wear contact lenses with these goggles?

Yes, these goggles are generally compatible with wearing contact lenses, providing a secure seal to keep them in place.

What is the lifespan of the Swipe Anti-Fog feature?

The Swipe Anti-Fog feature is designed to last significantly longer than standard anti-fog treatments, offering clear vision up to 10 times longer. However, its lifespan is finite and can be affected by how often it's wiped and the conditions of use.

How do I clean the goggles without damaging the anti-fog coating?

After swimming, rinse the goggles with clean, fresh water. For any smudges, use only a soft, lint-free cloth or your finger (for the Swipe feature) and avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

What does 'Air Seals' mean?

Air Seals are a special gasket design that uses air to create a comfortable, adaptive seal around the eye socket. They compress and conform to the face, providing a lighter feel and reducing pressure points compared to traditional silicone seals.

Troubleshooting

Goggles are leaking around the eyes.

Ensure the Air Seals are clean and free of debris. Adjust the strap tension for a snugger fit, but avoid over-tightening, which can distort the seal. Try repositioning the goggles on your face to find the optimal seal point.

Anti-fog is not working effectively.

Make sure you are using the Swipe technology correctly by wiping the *inside* of the lens with a clean finger. Ensure the lenses are not contaminated with oils or dirt. Rinse with fresh water if necessary.

Goggles feel uncomfortable or create pressure points.

Readjust the split strap for a more balanced fit. The Air Seals are designed to adapt, but the initial placement and strap tension are key. Allow a few minutes of swimming for the seals to conform to your face.

Lenses are fogging up immediately.

This can happen if the anti-fog layer has been compromised (e.g., by touching with oily fingers or abrasive materials). Ensure you are activating the Swipe feature correctly and consistently. If the problem persists after multiple activations, the anti-fog properties may have diminished.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional and long-lasting anti-fog performance with Swipe technology.
  • Very comfortable due to Air Seals and lightweight design.
  • Adapts well to different face shapes.
  • Provides clear, wide peripheral vision.
  • Durable and suitable for regular fitness swimming.

Cons

  • Swipe anti-fog requires manual reactivation which may be inconvenient for some.
  • May not be suitable for extremely competitive swimmers prioritizing a hydrodynamic profile.
  • Initial fit adjustment might take a few tries to achieve optimal seal.
  • The yellow color might not suit everyone's aesthetic preference.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Adjust the split strap using the buckle mechanism for a secure yet comfortable fit. Ensure the strap lies flat against your head.
  2. Position the goggles on your face, allowing the Air Seals to create a natural suction.
  3. Fine-tune the strap tension if necessary.

Compatibility:

These goggles are designed for general fitness swimming and are compatible with most standard swim caps and goggles.

Care:

  • Anti-Fog Maintenance: To reactivate the Swipe anti-fog, gently wipe the inside of the lens with a clean finger. Avoid touching the lens with abrasive materials.
  • Cleaning: After each use, rinse the goggles thoroughly with cool, fresh water. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the lenses and seals.
  • Storage: Store the goggles in their protective case (if provided) or a soft pouch away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to prevent degradation of materials.
