    Strip broken

    I bought these as my prescription swimming goggles, but I’m very disappointed. I only used them four times and the strap already broke. They also loosen up quickly while swimming, which makes it hard to focus on learning. The lenses got blurry very quickly, and it became even worse when swimming fast. For prescription goggles, I expected much better quality.

    Thanks for the feedback and pictures.

    I am not sure you had the strap fitted correctly if it was slipping and it doesn't look broken, just unthreaded.

    The strap should be threaded through the clip first, then through the end of the lens and finally back through the clip. This video may help: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZhX2SSYQdqQ&t=82s.

    The lenses are pre-treated with an anti-fog coating but sometimes this needs topping up.
    The blurriness is due to sweat condensing on the inner lens surface and the amount varies between swimmers.
    A top tip is to put the goggles on while they and you are dry and use extra anti-fog spray before every swim.

    If it helps, here is more information, tips to reduce fogging and a video of how to apply the anti-fog that you may find useful;

    Great for the price

    The goggles are watertight, give me good vision and there is no fogging.

    I recommend watching the Youtube video for how to assemble as it was a little fiddly to do and seeing a demonstration made more sense than the written instructions.

    Definitely recommend.

    excellent, highly recommended, though require putting together

    These goggles are excellent, providing very clear vision both in and out of the water. They need assembling, but I didn't find this too difficult (although the strap is a bit fiddly). Very good value for money.

    Prescription Swimming Goggles

    Hello Morgan

    Thank you for your order for a B&S Shell goggle and leaving a review.
    I have contacted you to check that the lenses are the correct power for you.

    If you have your eye test prescription from your optician, it is best to email a copy over.
    We can check all three results as they all affect the power of the lenses needed.

    There is more about this here;

    www.prescription-swimming-goggles.co.uk/pages/choosing-the-right-prescription

    Also, to avoid headaches, the head strap shouldn't be too tight;

    https://www.prescription-swimming-goggles.co.uk/pages/fitting-guide
    It is always worth trying new goggles on at home to check the vision and fit before a swim.
