    I have worn the following goggles for 20 years.

    Speedo Pro Anti-Fog:

    They are just normal goggles. I've worn them in all my races for 4 years. Never once have I worried about getting them knocked off my head. They work for me.

    Also, you can put the strap of the goggles under your swim cap if you are worried about them getting knocked off.

    I have a smallish face and Speedo Women's Vanquisher goggles fit me really well. I have trouble getting a good seal with unisex goggles. Leaky goggles = no fun.

    I tried a handful of different goggles before finding the the Barracuda Standard goggle:

    Everything else either leaked or I had to cinch them so tight I thought my eyes would pop out. I was lucky to find a store who would let me try them on before buying.

    Thanks everyone.

    Guess I'll have to locate a local swim shop and try some on. Something tells me my el-cheepo ones aren't going to make it more then a few weeks in the water since I'm going 3x a week and also have a Saturday swim class.

    They have worked ok so far, but I feel like they want to suck my eyeballs out.

    I wear the Aquasphere Seal Mask. I look like a dork, but I don't care. I could never find any goggles that fit. The mask has worked well for me and hasn't been kicked off yet.
