Over a year trying all sorts of goggles(tyr race, vanquishers, kayenne,vista,kaiman, etc) Nothing worked, all leaked and fogged. Finally found barracuda hydrobats. No leaks, no fogging.  Peripheral vision isnt as good as some, -where'd that wall come from?- but oh well.  So if your a guy with a narrow face and have been told you need  ladies or kids goggles maybe give them a try..

I'm not a guy with a narrow face but I am a woman with a narrow face and spent my entire swim lesson this week emptying out the water that kept leaking into my goggles.  I think I will be trying to find a pair of these as long as they make them in a woman's version.  Thanks for the tip!

I have largish eyes and high cheekbones. I SWEAR by barracuda ultimates.  The only bad thing about the goggles is they really lose their anti-fog quickly (I'm not sure why, but a lot faster than speedos or Tyrs)

 

the other goggles I"m thinking of trying are Zoggs. I tried a pair at a  tri store and they were very comfortable.

Keep an eye out on TYR for this coming year. They are releasing a few new lines of goggles that you all might really like. Just FYI.

I had tons of trouble with leaky goggles and a TYR rep in our tri club told me to get the Nest Pro.  Not a single issue since.  I have high cheekbones and a narrow face.  Best $$I spent for swimming since i started tri.
