I need to start to swim laps with contacts and need a good pair of goggles. A link would be great so I am sure it is the right ones!
thanks

This has been my go-to for the past several years.

I usually buy them at our local Sports Authority

Its such a personal thing -- it totally depends on your face. My fave are the Speedo Hydrospecs 2 or the Vanquisher. DH prefer the Aquasphere.

You fit swim goggles by pushing them onto your eyes without the strap. If they stay (briefly), they fit. If they fall right off, look at a different style.

Speedo Vanquisher...that's what my kids use for swim team and the only goggles their coach recommends.

I went to a good sports store and got fitted, is that an option? Made a huge difference for me.

I got mine at Target because I cheaped out even though I knew better; they were similar to the Vanquisher that OPs have recommended, but if I were to take up swimming again, I might try a few more pair because they don't fit exactly right, though they're good enough to get started.
