FAQs
What makes the IQfit™ technology different?
IQfit™ technology is designed to create a comfortable, leak-free seal by conforming to the unique contours of your head and eye socket, reducing the need for overtightening the strap.
Are these goggles suitable for competitive racing?
Yes, the frameless design, excellent peripheral vision, and secure fit make them ideal for both training and competitive swimming, including triathlons.
How often should I rinse the goggles?
It is recommended to rinse the goggles with clean water after every use to maintain their performance and longevity.
Can I wear contact lenses with these goggles?
Yes, these goggles can be worn over contact lenses. The secure fit helps to prevent water from entering and dislodging your lenses.
What is the lifespan of the anti-fog coating?
The anti-fog coating is designed to last for a significant period with proper care. However, effectiveness may gradually decrease over time, especially with frequent use and improper cleaning. Reapplication of dedicated anti-fog solutions can help extend its effectiveness.
How do I adjust the strap for the best fit?
Use the integrated tensioning scale on the IQfit™ strap. Adjust until the goggles feel snug and secure around your eyes without causing excessive pressure or discomfort.
What is the benefit of the frameless design?
The frameless construction offers a more streamlined, low-profile fit that reduces drag in the water, contributing to improved swimming performance.
Troubleshooting
Goggles leak around the eyes.
Ensure the IQfit™ 3D seal is positioned correctly and making full contact with the skin. Adjust the IQfit™ strap for a more secure fit, but avoid overtightening. Clean the seals and the skin around your eyes to remove any oils or residue that might interfere with the seal.
Lenses fog up during use.
Rinse the inside of the lenses with clean water before swimming. Avoid touching the inside of the lenses with your fingers. If fogging persists, consider using an anti-fog solution specifically designed for swimming goggles, following product instructions carefully. The anti-fog coating may diminish over time with extensive use.
Goggles feel too tight or cause discomfort.
Loosen the IQfit™ strap slightly using the tensioning scale. Ensure the goggles are not sitting too high or too low on the eye sockets. The sidearm design and orbital seal are intended to minimize pressure, so adjust the strap tension for a balanced fit.
Vision is distorted or peripheral view is limited.
Check that the goggles are centered correctly on your face. Ensure the wrap-around lenses are not obstructed. Adjust the strap to ensure the goggles sit properly without pinching, which can sometimes affect the lens alignment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Adjust the IQfit™ strap using the tensioning scale until the goggles feel secure but not overly tight. The strap should sit comfortably on the back of your head.
- Position the goggles on your face, ensuring the IQfit™ 3D seal conforms snugly around the eye sockets. A slight suction should form when the strap is secured.
Compatibility:
These goggles are designed for swimming in pools and open water. They are suitable for both competitive and recreational use. The adjustable nature of the strap makes them compatible with a wide range of head sizes.
Care:
- Rinse: After each use, rinse the goggles thoroughly with clean, cold tap water. This removes chlorine, salt, and other residues that can degrade the materials and anti-fog coating.
- Drying: Allow the goggles to air dry naturally. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources, as this can damage the lenses and seals.
- Cleaning: If necessary, gently clean the lenses with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as they can scratch the lenses or damage the anti-fog treatment.
- Storage: Store the goggles in a protective case (sold separately or the original packaging) to prevent scratches and damage when not in use.
