Comfy, well-made, but potentially nausea inducing |

Ordered these hoping for something comfortable to wear for long open water swims. They fit very comfortably, seal easily, and adjust simply. The size of the gasket means you have to be careful to keep them below the edge of your swim cap, or the swim cap will break the seal. When I started testing these I noticed a big telescopic effect, things look normal in air, but further away underwater. In a dark water lake test, I had no issues. In the pool and on a very clear lake shoreline, I had problems. With the lines of the pool or highly visible rocks, the change in depth perception in and out of the water when breathing got me very nauseous an hour in. I suspect these are great for ocean swimming, or any other dark water swimming where there isn't too much to look at underwater. Maybe some folks won't be effected by the visual effect. Giving them 3 stars because everything about the design and fit is great... Docking two stars to draw attention to what I see as a limited use case.
