Neoprene Doesn't Seal, August 8, 2006
This review is from: Speedo Sprint (Misc.)
The Speedo Sprint goggle used to be a good goggle. The nose bridge is adjustable, and so it doesn't cut the bridge of your nose as much as some non-adjustable goggles. For six bucks, a good deal.
BUT... seems they can't just leave a good thing alone. The eye seals _used to be_ silicone, and they used to be nice and sticky and make a good seal. Now they use neoprene, which just doesn't work. It takes a struggle to make this goggle seal to your eyes now, and then only by jamming it in at eyeball-sucking pressure, at which point the corners of the hard neoprene seal poke your eyesockets uncomfortably. I think the product designer at Speedo has never been swimming.
If you remember this goggle as good, I recommend you check the seal material. You may be disappointed.

Broke within a week, March 24, 2010
This review is from: Speedo Sprint (Misc.)
These goggles were ok for the first two swims during which I used them. But the outer frame quickly tore. Now after three swims, they are useless.
Oh yeah, and tonight I saw a guy with a pair of them have the exact same problem during his first swim with them.
