Best Swimming Goggles and Gear – Alicia Weber Recommendations

By:  Alicia Weber

As an elite triathlete, open water swimmer, and swimming instructor, I often get asked about goggles and swimming gear.  There are a lot of goggles to choose from and people want to know which are the best and which last the longest.  After, I have exhausted countless pairs of goggles over the years, I can certainly tell you which kind hold up the longest and are the most durable in competition.  There is only one brand I stick with when it comes to swimming goggles and that is Zoggs. I have one pair I set aside for racing and another pair for training.  They last years rather than months like the other brands I used to wear for training and racing.  I am very happy with my Zoggs and I feel you will be too…what is even better is the price is RIGHT!  Check below for best ZOGGS goggles, swim caps, and swim gloves!!

BEST GOGGLES FOR FEMALE – MALE – TEENAGER – KIDS

These are my swimming googles I use in training and they are perfect for women Zoggs Athena II Goggles

These goggles are perfect for men and women into racing.  I use these when I compete Predator Flex Polarized Goggle – Adult

These goggles are perfect for teenagers for training and racing Zoggs Odyssey Jr Swimming Goggles (Black/Smoke)

Finally, these are the goggles I recommend for kids Zoggs Predator Wiro Frame Kids Goggles (Blue/Blue)Swimming Goggles)

BEST SWIM CAP

The best swim cap that can fit all and even reduces drag unlike other swim caps would be Zoggs Ura-Fit Silicone Cap

RESISTANCE GLOVES build muscles and strength while swimming and water running.  I highly recommend Speedo Aqua Fit Training Swim Gloves
