Arena Cobra Ultra Swipe Mirror Goggles - Violet/Coral
originally posted on arenawaterinstinct.com
Regular swim training. If used many different manufacturers goggles over many years. I am trialling these new goggles. So far, I’d summarise them as expensive but adequate. They can be very temperamental to fit on the face to ensure leaking is avoided. I am not yet entirely convinced the anti fog technology is as effective as your advertising boasts. They are rather uncomfortable to wear for extended periods of 45-minutes+. So far 6 out of 10. I’ve had better results with anti fog sprays & with the comfort fit of cheaper goggles.

The anti-fog component seems to work better than any other goggle I have ever purchased. Even though they give you several on those bridges, the fit is a little weird and the lenses are tiny. I was hoping they would be bigger. Also, I paid the five dollars to join the club and they charge me full price.

These goggles are great, I have used these every single day for over a year. I originally got these because no other goggles seemed to fit, and they were recommended to me by a teammate. I started with a darker "outdoor" lens, but loved them so much that I got another pair of "indoor" for early morning practices and night finals. Note- the daylight pair is very dark, they are great for swimming in the Florida Sun, but make it difficult to see in low-light. Overall, the goggles are great, to this day I have no problems with leaking.The stability bars keep the goggles in place on my face (especially under a cap), so there are no problems with them coming off during a dive or turn. I do have occasional fogging, and sadly the Swipe Feature wears off after a month or two ... MoreThese goggles are great, I have used these every single day for over a year.

Took me a few goes to get the tension strap correct, but once settled they fitted fine.. Very snug in eye socket. Ideal for small faces!The clarity of the lens is what struck me immediately.. Like putting on a pair of Oakleys! They really are beautiful.I've not had them long enough to test out the anti fog swipe, so cannot say about that.Excellent delivery. A couple of days... Maybe a protective bag/case would've been nice as they are pricey??
First off, ive been using cobra ultras for years, i swim 100k a month, I've done a 24mile pool swim and the English channel; I feel I'm fairly well placed to post a comparison!Massively disappointing. Straight out the box there is no bag and only black nose pieces with white goggles (both you used to get with standard ultras). Fine, no biggy.First session (hour of master) perfect, no fogging. Also no swiping...but then you wouldn't need to with a standard pair. Couple more of these sessions, same, fine, great....but so would the antifog on a standard pair.The week before I got these i did 8x2k with a standard pair and some fog spray, no problem. Thought I'd do the same with the swipes. Mid way through the first set they fogged so I tried the swipe. Within ... MoreFirst off, ive been using cobra ultras for years, i swim 100k a month, I've done a 24mile pool swim and the English channel; I feel I'm fairly well placed to post a comparison!Massively disappointing.

Thought I'd do the same with the swipes. Mid way through the first set they fogged so I tried the swipe. Within 100metres I couldn't see through them. The only thing that improved it was letting the lenses dry as best as possible between intervals...but even then they weren't great.I really do not see how these are any better than a standard pair and having read the instructions and the box, I feel like a right tit and that I've been scammed. "Dip them in the water and wipe away the fog". Yeah, that happens with any old pair...i was kinda hoping the super expensive swipes would actually KEEP THEM CLEAR!! If it doesn't it's kind of pointless. Expensive and pointless.Really disappointed.
Sort of stunned. I owned Magic 5 goggles for training and liked the fit. These looked more aggressive and indented in the eye socket. They are, but not in an overtly uncomfortable way. In fact, they are quite discrete and disappear once you are in the water, in terms of feel and placement. The standout that has me as a convert is the absolute clarity of the lenses: pin sharp resolution in the pool and the anti fogging tech is pretty astonishing. Not sure how long that will last but they work well enough for me just to want to keep the order for these goggles on rotation as my go to set. Highly recommended. Last note: the goggles come with multiple nose bridges for comfort. Mine fit pretty well out the box, so I haven't used the others yet, but it is a relief to have ... MoreSort of stunned.

Wanted to love them but leaked in every race I used them for in a 3 day meet over the past weekend. In one race both sides completely filled up so I could not see anything. Tried pressing them tighter, but then my eyelashes, which are not particularly long, crushed up against lens and made for a blurry view. They seem to be well made... Perhaps my eye sockets are just not ideal for a good fit of these goggles, in any event, they are worthless to me.
My needs are simple: clear vision, no leaks, and minimal goggle marks. These goggles provide wonderful clarity- the amber tint works well indoors and they definitely don't leak. In fact, the suction is so strong that I have to peel them off my face despite the straps being loose and floppy. I couldn't believe it-the first time I used these-I adjusted the nose piece, jumped in the pool, and didn't experience a single leak or have to stop for an adjustment . But...the goggle marks they leave behind are unbelievable. I am older (60) and my skin isn't very elastic anymore so it may not affect a younger swimmer as much, but when I still have visible goggle marks 6-8 hours after swimming....no thanks. I think these might work well for competitive swimmers who definitely ... MoreMy needs are simple: clear vision, no leaks, and minimal goggle marks.

I think these might work well for competitive swimmers who definitely needs goggles that stay put, but not for a rec swimmer like me. I have tried 5 different goggles and each one has left me with some pretty significant goggle marks. I may have to just wear a diving bell helmet....
Cobra says it all. These are great. I have been a swimmer all my life, swam post secondary institution and dealt with foggy goggles my whole life. Now, WOW, I am done with stopping at the end to clear the goggles only to have them fog up before the 25 is over. I hope that they stand up to the constant swimming. This is the first time for Arena, I have always been a Speedo girl. They are snug to the face and if you have long lashes you might hit the inside goggle.
