I got the ones with the metallic lens since I swim in an outdoor pool and they do well with keeping the brightness level down. I should probably buy a clear pair for cloudy days because there are times when they can become too dark for me.

Fit:

The goggles are easily adjustable and fit my big guy head really well with no leaks. Sometimes I have problems with goggles having the eye cups too close together, but these are perfect for me. I love the adjustment system on these because it's easy to change the length of the straps if needed. God how I hated the old style where you had to adjust the goggle on the side of the temple with those hard plastic threads.

Peripheral vision:

Unlike a lot of other goggles that have a flat front lens and then a second side lens, these lenses are curved. That means that you get an unobstructed, SEAMLESS, peripheral view, and I love that! I do wish it curved even a bit further around, but don't get me wrong, they're still great as-is.

Goggle Case:

I did buy the TYR goggle case and although it has worked really well (and prevented a ton of scratches), it's almost too small for the goggle. You have to bunch up everything and then hold the goggles and the straps in the case and then zip it closed slowly while pushing everything in that's popping back out. If I could do it again, I'd buy it only if I couldn't find a case that was a bit bigger.

Fogging up:

I don't knock a goggle down for fogging up because there are so many conditions that effect this. Fogging is caused by your body warming the air in the goggle and then cold water hitting the outside of the lens. The cold lens and warm air make contact and that causes condensation on the inside. The ONLY thing a company can do is put an anti-fog solution on the inside of the lens, and no company has figured out how to make that coating permanent. It will eventually come off of EVERY goggle. You can spit in your lens, rub it around, and then shake it out with water, this creates a film. Or, you can buy some JAWS Quick Spit that does the same thing, only a bit better. Either way, goggles are going to fog, and if they don't fog right when you get them, it's not going to be long until they do. Anti-fog solution is cheap and lasts a long time, and in my view, should be a part of every goggle purchase.

Have a great swim!

These fit great and stay put. Smaller sizes didn't work well for my face. These were a great combination of size and security. They work well in the pool when lighting is not the best and outdoors.

Honest reviews on TYR Nest Pro Metallized Goggle

I'm an open water swimmer all year long in San Diego, our water is cold so I'm not sure if the heavy fogging is due to the metallized lens reaction to the cold or just the metallized lens but these goggles are going back. The size is excellent for peripheral vision, they are large but not mask sized, good for larger faces, the details look cool as do the goggles in general but I couldn't see at all. They fogged constantly right out of the box. Too bad.

I buy goggles based on comfort and have owned 3 pairs (clear, blue, mirrored) for over a year and I have been happy with the fit and quality of all three.

Pros:

Soft silicone

Good visibility due to large eye cups

Durable

Dual adjustable straps

Fog proof if you spit (properly)... :)

Cons:

Might be bulky for some (better?) swimmers

Raccoon eyes after about 20-30 minutes.. However, any goggles I own seem to cause this... :)
