Step 1
Visit a sporting goods store, a swim boutique or an actual competitive swim meet. Any of these places will have Swedish goggles available for you to handle and try on. Regional, state or invitational swim meets usually have retail booths. This is a good place to see what the goggles feel like.
-
Step 2
Determine a color. Swedes, as they are affectionately called, come in varying colors. The most popular selections are clear, smoke, aqua, red, green, purple, metallic and amber.
-
Step 3
Go online. There are many websites that offer Swedish goggles for sale at reasonable prices. The Internet is the cheapest place to purchase goggles. Comparison shop by doing a search for "Swedish Goggles." You will find that most retail sites price them between $2.50 and $10.
-
Step 4
Purchase a pair of Swedish goggles that you assemble yourself. Do not purchase preset Swedes. The main reason this type of goggle is so popular is because you can set the goggles to fit your face. Buying a pair of Swedes that is already assembled defeats the purpose.
-
Step 5
Consider buying more than one pair. When you buy multiple pairs online, you may find a discount offered. Plus, each pair of Swedes fits a little differently. You may find that your clear pair fits your face better than your metallic ones.
