10 Swim Goggles That Will Take Your Workouts to the Next Level

The Speedo Women's Vanquisher 2.0 Mirrored Goggle ($25) is a great pair for beginners. The goggles feature panoramic, antifog lenses with built-in UV protection, which helps block out sunlight and glare. The inside of the lens caps is lined with cushioned silicon for a secure but comfortable fit; different-sized nose pieces are also included.

While the Tyr Special Ops 2.0 Nonmirrored Adult Goggles ($30) have antifog coating and full UV protection, they don't block out sunlight or glare. On the contrary, these transparent goggles let in as much light as possible, making them excellent for indoor, leisure, or open-water swimming. They're also made with hypoallergenic Durafit silicone, so those with sensitive skin can swim in comfort.

Designed for indoor-outdoor swimmers, the lenses on the Nike Vapor Photochromic Swim Goggles ($55) automatically darken in sunlight. Your eyes could not be more taken care of, and you'll never need to haul around two different pairs of goggles again. This latex-free pair also includes a customizable nose bridge.

Competitive swimmers, here's your next pair of racing goggles. The low-profile design on these Tyr Blackops 140 EV Racing Mirrored Women's Fit Goggles ($30) keeps the goggles suctioned to the eyes and helps decrease drag in the water. Made with polycarbonate lenses, these goggles are extremely lightweight and offer wide 140-degree peripheral range.

Step up your game with the FINA-approved Dolfin Bungee Racer Goggle ($13). The silicone padding on these low-profile goggles stretches above and around the antifog lenses, covering even the nose piece for unparalleled support. The goggles are also incredibly lightweight thanks to the bungee strap, which, in my experience, is easier to adjust and more durable than silicone straps.

Swimmers who wear glasses or contact lenses will find prescription goggles like the Speedo Vanquisher 2.0 Optical ($25) extremely helpful in the water. You can pick from a variety of different corrective-lens prescriptions — all of which are antifog, UV protective, and either clear or slightly tinted. You'll be able to focus on your stroke without bumping into the wall or lane lines while also keeping an eye on your surroundings outside of the pool.

Compared to other goggles on this list, the Tyr Tracer-X Racing Mirrored Adult Goggles ($40) sit lower on the face, resulting in a wider field of vision. While the goggles also come with adjustable straps and different-sized nose pieces, the high-definition, mirrored lenses are the real star of the show. They feature full UVA and UVB protection, which minimizes harsh sunlight, and are lined in extra-strength, leak-resistant silicone.

The ocean-blue mirrored lenses on this pair of Nike Vapor Mirrored Performance Swim Goggles ($35) prove that performance gear can still be fashionable. These standard goggles are perfect for swim workouts and will keep harsh sunlight and glare at bay. Because the gaskets have a thinner and more flexible silicone lining, they have a looser fit. While the goggles come in one size, both the straps and nose bridge are adjustable.

Ideal for low-light and indoor swimming, this Aqua Sphere Kayenne Clear Lens Goggle ($30) has scratch-resistant, antifog, and UV-protective lenses. Thanks to the goggle's oversized fit, swimmers have 180-degree visibility underwater. The straps are also unique because they adjust on either side of the face, instead of at the back.

These lightweight goggles also adjust on the side. However, the Tyr Vesi Mirrored Adult Goggles ($20) are tinted, so harsh light doesn't stand a chance at disrupting your workout. Equipped with Durafit silicone gaskets, these goggles work overtime to ensure water and chlorine don't seep in. The unibody design of the nose bridge means it comes in one size.
