Good goggle
Great for conditions where there is plenty of light. I use these as my training goggles in the pool, good fit and not too tight around the eyes which can be a problem for me.

Great value
Great product, used recently in the Ironman UK 70.3.
Worked well in the sunny conditions, felt very comfortable and reliable when in the washing machine start!!!!

goggles
i have found these goggles a paw? fit painful to wear for more than 20mins.

Ultimate value
I first got a set of these goggles last year, and they have been outstanding to wear in any water conditions. For me, they were the perfect fit, and they gave good clarity viewing in pool water and in sea water, when i braved the freezing temperatures for triathlons last year. At the price they were, they were simply superb value for my first set of goggles for proper swimming. Unfortunately, the strap on my current Kaiman goggles has snapped, but it was after one year of my far from caring behaviour-over stretching them, tightening them too far, throwing them around and even, on some occasions, placing them in washing machines. For such small goggles to last that long makes them pretty durable (it may not sound bad on paper, but you haven't seen me treat them!)
Overall, I would say if you are looking for some good quality goggles for any occasion, look no further than Aqua Sphere.

Finally! No leaks ...
Having tried numerous goggles, both in the pool and the sea,I have grown increasingly frustrated with water seeping in. I have concluded that it is either poor design or my own inability to adjust the straps properly, but as a man, I can't possibly admit to the second option!
Every previous pair of goggles I have owned have had more leaks than a Welsh farm until now. The Kaiman are absolutely brilliant - they are so easy to adjust, they do NOT leak and they are really comfortable.
The simple test for me is would I buy another pair if these went missing or broke. The answer is quite simply YES YES YES.
I would absolutely recommend these to anyone - well done Aqua Sphere for a brilliant product.

First mirrored lens goggles
This was my first ever pair of mirrored lens goggles, so didn't really know what to expect. I have been a long supporter of the Brand Aqua Sphere and they definitely have lived up to the great fit and comfort, great silicone seating around the eyes perfectly, I have become accustomed to.
The mirrored lens does shade the eyes to a far greater degree than my previous tinted lens Kayenne's which for later afternoon open water swimming I am grateful for.

Poor fit, eye lens constantly leaked
I have previously had a pair of these goggles and they were brilliant, great fit and never leaked. However the strap snapped so I purchased a second pair. Unfortunately the goggles don't fit anywhere near as well. The right side constantly leaked no matter how much I adjusted the straps. Very disappointing.

Excellent
Have been swimming for many years in the pool and sea. These goggles are excellent and have a pair three years old that still have perfect optics and never leak.

Not as good as the last pair
I bought these goggles because the previous (and first) pair I bought were comfortable, did not let water in, and most importantly did not ever mist up - something difficult to achieve in a goggle. However, despite buying the same model, this pair are uncomfortable ad mist up within seconds of use - whether in cold open water or warmer pool water. They don't let in water mind.

SImply great
Easy to use, nicely adjustable, no fogging and clear view offering goggles.

Aqua Sphere Kaiman Goggles Mirrored Lens
Excellent product, Light, comfortable and no fogging, would recomment these goggles to anyone, nice price too...
24 April 2015
Glasses steam up and are next to useless
These goggles are comfortable but steam up really badly. I don't know if this is because of the mirror coating but after half a length you cant see where your going. This is a shame because my previous aqua sphere goggles were good.
09 April 2015
Didn't suit me
Bought these as had previously used aqua sphere Kayenne goggles. However these didn't fit me right at all. Let in water regardless of how tight I had them. Probably just didn't suit me though and would be nice goggles if they fit!
26 February 2015
For the price best goggles i've bought for years!
Come in a sturdy box so can be taken to pool side and kept scratch free when not in use. Great price, comfortable, great price, easily adjustable. I always use Aqua Sphere goggle for swimming now.

Mirrored for events
I bought theses for recent triathlon events, where mirrored lenses is the way to go. Super easy to get a tight fit and never mist up.
I can't wait until they launch the mirrored k180's which Michael Phelps is now wearing.

leaked & fogged up from first use
I would not recommend these goggles, poor seal caused leak from first use. Goggles also mist up within first 100m of swimming.
18 September 2014
googles leaked!
Could not get these gooles to seal against my face.
07 September 2014
a very avarage product
The googles suffer from non stop water licking. this is my third Kaiman Goggles I buy and I was surprised that the present google's preformance was so dissapointing.

great comfort, but fog
Very soft material, fits good fot hours. The anti-fog does not work good. I prepare it with dishwashing detergent after each workout. Then it's O.K.
11 February 2013
ok but not amazing
the anti fog didn't work for me - but i have always used anti fog drops, so no change really.

First goggles...Wow
These are my first pair of goggles that I have used since I learned to swim and now I just can't keep out of the water.
The goggles are easy to wear, comfortable and I don't have any of the fogging issues I have heard about. I would certainly recommend these goggles

Good if you are female
These goggles are really well made, and I love the design. However, due to the low profile of these goggles, there is no clearance between the lens and my eyelashes. Thus brushing against the inside of the lens which is causing the inner coating to dull. Not to mention the comfort issues. I'm assuming these goggles were designed for women (who genetically have shorter eyelashes than men).
Seems a shame that mens eyelashes were not taken into consideration when these were manufactured, as they are about the best looking goggles on the market.
Unfortunately, I will have to return these, although I really don't want to, as the only similar option I've found on the market are the Zoggs Predator Flex Mirror, which in my opinion are ugly in comparison. Although I wonder if it is possible to adjust these so they don't have such a low profile? If not, I wonder which similar design mirrored goggles, which take men's longer eyelashes into consideration are available on the market?
Had the low profile design not been such a major issue, I would have rated 5/5

Not the same as clear!
The black silicon seals seem to be harder/stiffer than my clear ones and hence leak easier. Will stick to clear ones in future.

Not for me
I'm happily using zoggs predator flex goggles at the moment but thought if give these a try
.. They leak water and my eye lashes touch the front of the goggles... I have a small head but it seems the aqua spheres just aren't for me...

great purchase
good value for money, very comfortable and they dont fog
21 December 2010
Excellent open water goggles
Use these as training goggles all summer in the fjord. As long as they're not scratched they give really good vision and are comfortable even after +2 hrs. After a while it does pay to use some anti-fogging solution, but that's true with all goggles. Good in rain or sunlight. OK in pool, but there are more suitable goggles if that's where you do most of your swimming.
27 March 2010
different
I have a blue tint version and seems the black surround on these has a different grip texture to the clear material. Also the mirror lens with the smallest of smears on the outside surface gave a kalidescope effect when looking thro' them; seems the mirror finish is susceptible to this. May make outdoor swims indistinct-but if you have other mirror lenses you may be familiar with this?

Aqua Sphere Kaiman
You can see the quality of the Kaiman as soon as they are out of the packet. You know that these will last the test of time. Field of vision is good and ideal for open water swimming. They do however leak slightly but this is probably down to one too many bumps on the nose and am sure that they will fit the average face. I would recommend these to friends and would have no problems in purchasing further Aqua Sphere products
