- Jay from the Wild Swim store takes you through what he looks for in a pair of Open Water Swimming goggles, and why they've chosen to stock the pairs that they do.
The biggest difference between swimming in a pool and Wild Swimming is sunlight and glare. With two options for darkened lenses Jay explains the difference.

Jay, this is a great video, thank you for taking the time to make it. I love the fact that you are out there using the gogles when you review them; yes the audio is splashy, but that's what being out there is like. Well done you for making a user friendly, informative and inspirational video. I'm off over to the shop in the link to see about getting some. Thank you 👏
Thanks so much Riley for your comment, glad you enjoyed the video and found it helpful. We're hoping to make more of this type of content, so keep an eye out :)
man, you are a beast swimming in that kind of stuff - you must really love to swim outside!!
great video.. have you checked the amazon reviews on the vapor zone 3 ??? you should do that.
Hi. No I haven’t I can’t find the reviews you’re meaning, only those for the polarised version but not the Photochromatic.
Great video - sound works well x Any suggestions for ladies googles - lady with teeny narrow face ! Sea swimming and yet to find goggles that don't leak / leave trench marks on my face for DAYS !
Hello! So Jay here. My sister and I just had a chat over which goggles we would recommend. The Attack goggles are really good for a small face (I have a tiny head- they used to nick name me “bean head” in school) and they are sooooo comfortable. I can happily swim for 90 minutes with no leaking, minimal marks and usually a bit smile 😊
@@thewildswimstore I so appreciate your reply xx I bought the HUUB retro from you guys last night. Let's see how I get on - Maybe a second purchase will be happening some time soon 🙂 Have a beautiful day x
@@rawgalore1497 thank you so much!! We really appreciate it! They are in the way to you so let us know how you get on!
I cannot hear you over the spashing water
Thanks for your comment James, it's a bit of a challenge filming in the water as we've discovered, hoping to find ways to make the sound better going forward!
What about a sunny and bright day?
The lenses darken and are great. Jay used them in his first 10k swim: the sun was shining low right in the swimmers eyes at one end and then the other end was super cloudy. They performed great. Shame about Jay though. 😂. Joking he finished it
