I just bought a pair of these new goggles about three weeks ago, and must say I am very impressed. I got the black ones with smoked lenses, although they come in other lenses and other colors. These are bar none the best swim goggles I have ever used.
Barracuda’s Ultimate Swim Goggle provides a combination of Barracuda’s original positive pressure frame and their new Softech frame technology. When worn, the Ultimate forms a positive seal to the eye as the eyewear simulates the anatomy of the face. This exceptional technology then seals out water without leaving marks on the wearer’s skin. Features a Latex-Free rubber frame, double straps that hold the goggles securely in place, rear mounted strap adjustment tab and anti-fog lenses. Available in Blue(blue lens/pearl frame), Clear(clear lens/silver frame) and Smoke(smoke lens/black frame). Lenses are UV protected and fog resistant.
I’m interested in trying these. I used the old school, foam padded “channel swimmer” Barracuda goggles until just recently and then I switched to Aquasphere Kaiman’s.
I have been swimming in these for two years, great for my face shape. I tried the kaimans but they sat so close to my eyes I could feel my eyelashes rubbing on the lense when I blinked.
My only complaint with the Barracudas is that I have not been able to get a replacement strap for one that broke. Oh well, just tied a knot in it.
I have the same pair of Barracudas and I couldn’t agree with you more. Best pair of goggles I ever owned. I have never had an issue with leaking or fogging. Great fit and comfortable. I’m gonna order another pair for a back-up.
No. I do not need to use an anti-fog spray. I use the old fashioned saliva from my mouth trick just before I put my goggles on and no problems with fogging.
