Two new polarized goggles take the glare out of your open-water swims.
During races with varying light conditions—for instance, going straight into the sun one direction and not on the way back, or racing with a moving cloud cover—polarized lenses can reduce glare and keep your line of vision to the buoys clear. Both Aqua Sphere and Blueseventy have added polarized lens options to their most popular open water frames.
