... before I plough headlong into another swimmer in my lane. Have bought increasingly expensive ones but after a few wears they are all the same, I have to stop and rinse them every 10 lengths or I can see nowt.

Even better would be tips on how to prevent my expensive goggles from fogging up!

Try rubbing a tiny drop of baby shampoo inside the lenses then rinse before wearing.

Failing that I have an earlier model of this and find it fantastic.

Thanks... will give shampoo a try first, then consider mask. Which brand of shampoo do you use?

Any baby one...so if you do wash it into your eyes it shouldn't sting!

You could also try special anti-fog spray - I spray mine every 8-10 swims and reinforce by rubbing the inside of the (wet) goggles with a small amount of spit before going into the water. Not perfect but a lot better than nothing!

SleepwhenIdie you are, like, an ACTUAL GENIUS... 50 lengths with no goggle defogging stops needed this morning thanks to the shampoo trick. Thanks!

CrispEater- thanks also for your reply- will keep it in mind in case I run out of shampoo!
