- The Magic 5 Goggles are the latest must have in the Swimming Pool.
Made for swim training, competition, triathlon, leisure and fitness, with their advanced face scan custom fit technology and big claims, can they live up to the Hype?
Goggles are a difficult one to get right. I've tried so many before finding the ones that fit me best.
I tested & reviewed these over a 3 month period so you don't have to.
Let's see if they will help save you the hassle and cost of trying multiple pairs before finding the right ones.

My friend and I both bought a pair. Both of us had issues with leaking. Both had a 2nd pair made (company very helpful to replace) and same issues, leaking. Not sure if it's a female thing or what. We both have narrow faces so not sure if that is the issue. We tried over and over and over (changing the nose pieces, tightening, loosening, everything) and still leaked. I know lots of great reviews for this company and they are very friendly to work with but both of us have moved on to other goggles that work better for us.
Ahh that’s a real shame. Glad you found some that work for you now.
Thanks for the informative video!!
What are those white goggles you showed at the beginning that look like sunglasses? I don’t like straps, those seem like a good option during training.
I think its these you saw: www.arenaswimuk.com/product/cobra-ultra-swipe-goggles/
@@AshLOVEsTECH Thanks for replying so fast. I was referring to the ones you're holding at 1:33 when you say "Speedo". Thanks!
@@alejandrocotilla2899 I was talking generically. I do think those were the arenas, but I may try these out next for training: www.amazon.co.uk/Stealth-MkII-Rainbow-Mirrored-swimming/dp/B07NPGDTTC
@@AshLOVEsTECH Gotcha, thanks!!
This was a very helpful and thorough review. I especially liked that you did a 3-week and 3-month check in. Still on the fence as to whether or not to buy, but you definitely touched on the key points. Disappointing about the anti-fog, since they claim "anti-fog".
Thanks Tom. Still using mine and going strong. They also now have an antifog spray that’s seems to work well.
@@AshLOVEsTECH Oh, quick reply! So then, I should order the spray at the same time as the goggles, to consolidate shipping charges? Is there something "magic" about their spray vs. other anti-fog sprays that one might find on Amazon?
@@TomOtvosmy son uses the magic 5 spray and he says it’s great. I use an Amazon spray which I’ve had for a while and it’s ok. Not great but ok. Probably worth it I would think.
I'm thinking seriously about to buying those goggles... I have bad eyes (many surgeries) and as I spend like 5 hours per week in the pool, I rather avoid the chorine and suction... Even if I don't compete, I think this is a gadget to consider.
I appreciate your comments, I don't mind a bit of fog, the good points are enough. I subscribed!!! 👍
Thanks Eva. They take some getting used to but are v comfy and seem be lasting well.
@@AshLOVEsTECH I have placed my order!!!!! Looking forward to try them in the pool!!!!
It was curious this mapping thing.
I like the new technologies.
Have you tried the Ameo's snorkel "Power Breather" ? it's my last toy... I'm in love with it!
@@inakamono31 not heard of or tried that. Send me the link 👍😁
This snorkel is the only one that makes you breath free from C02. In the others, your breath out will remain a bit into the tube. That's what I chose it.
@@inakamono31 what’s it called?
Idk i think ill invest but my biggest issue is that they domt offer prescriütion goggles for people with glasses, like myself. I‘m somewhat ok without, though in cloudy water with a dark shade i sometimes have issues. Nothing bad and i can srill use any normal goggles but if im paying that much for a pair i should have the option to add my specific prescription.. they coupd even change more if they want for the prescription but to not offer it at all at that pricepoint is not really accpetable. Especially when their entire motto is to custom fit and design eveything individually for everyone. Also i‘m 99% sure they dont custom bend each piece of glass for every goggle and the lenses at least are mass manufactured so why not offer prescriptions when i can get a pair for 30$ or less off of amazon with prescription..
Yeah otherwise they sound very good and i‘ve caved and bought a pair after i saw a sale recently so we‘ll see.
useful video great, available in amazon?
Thanks. Not available via Amazon due to the face scan needed.
Do you have those goggles also sitting underneath the bone of eye socket bone?
Just got mine and they are only on the soft tissue and they do leave a mark instantly and if I loosen them, I have a visible gap on the top part.
Hope that changes with the nose piece part, if I find out how to press that out without damage.😅
Can you show please how to exchange the nose pieces please?
Changing the nose piece will definitely help. I used the handle end of a small spoon to help push it out.
@@AshLOVEsTECH thank you so much for your fast reply!
I will try and fiddle around and hopefully find the spot they are meant to sit.
Mine has a lump/funny hump on the upper gasket line in middle each side and I am like
"? Sagging skin or what did it pick up?"
Haha
Hopefully can solve the fitting. Hopefully can push all of them in and out to try and feel the difference.
Also, how are you going jumping in and not having goggles pushed off to chin when not tightening elastics hard?
Fiddled around, it's pretty strong "break" , fits better but the fog drives me insane.
I use a product called ‘Cat crap’ to stop my reading glasses fogging when I read in the bath (BMX company), works well so I may try in goggles when they start fogging. I’m still on the fence about these goggles
How long do these goggles last before needing replacement?
Still using mine. No leaks and comfy 8 months on. But the anti fog has warn off.
@@AshLOVEsTECH there are anti fog sprays, I used one for my old goggles and it worked pretty well though I didn’t use them for very long since - changed to ones with better fit. Have you tried sprays?
@@mikhaillastname8719 I have tried most things. 😢
@@AshLOVEsTECH Not even the baby-shampoo trick?
@@AshLOVEsTECH Luckily we do have now a premium anti-fog spray that solves the fogging issues once and for all :)
If you get a leaky pair, they absolutely will not help you. Ignore the guarantees on their site. All they do is simply not communicate with you. Buyer beware.
Ah that’s a shame & not the experience I had. Very good communication as far as I could tell.
The Brits circle pattern is even backwards.
Down the left side and back the right side? This is the same pattern as Australia.
Mine was leaking and foggind after 50m swim. Tried everything and couldnt solve a problem
Did you complain? They would have made another pair for you.
Hey @ashLOVEsTech,
Thank you so much for this great review.
Happy swimming,
Christina, THEMAGIC5.
They didnt work for me and not worth the hype either. Their algorithm doesnt work for everyone. They refunded my money after trying a 2nd pair and still leaking from the same exact side. How come my $20 speedo doesnt leak and this custom stuff leaks every time? SMH.
Hi @MR-AK, I am sorry to see that the goggles did not work for you but I am happy to hear that you received a full refund.
We appreciate your feedback. Based on it, we can improve our algorithm. I hope you will give it another shot in the near future.
Kind regards, Christina, THMAGIC5.
They still give you raccoon eyes. We clearly can see at the end of your video.
Tip. Anti fog is always an issue. Use baby Johnson shampoo. A tiny drop and gently rub on the inside and rinse it before going swimming. It kills the fog.
Compared to the suction and marks left from regular goggles, that was nothing.
@@jessejuliano8056 ive never had issues with fog or leaking, I buy a pair for £3.00 of nabaiji goggles, best I've ever had, I've paid lots for jazzy goggles and they are all shit
@@silverash63 didn't say otherwise just said his racoon eye effect from suction was lesser than regular goggles. They clearly don't pull on the face as much. Im still umming and arring on buying a pair but for me that's the biggest selling point.. Less damage to eyes/skin.
They look awful, if you have to return them it will be a nightmare, and you will probably be charged extortionate custom charges when they arrive
They're gorgeous goggles, and the return process was simple. My pair arrived in a damaged box, and the company was fantastic to work with.
Yeah getting a damaged box and had to return it already is a nightmare
@silverash63, We do appreciate your feedback, but I am sorry to see that you think that our personalized swim goggles look awful. Maybe you just need a pair and feel the magic yourself? :)
We do have a fit guarantee, which means if in the rare case, you do not feel the magic, we adjust your current pair. If you are still not happy with the new fit, you can get a full refund. So not really anything to lose.
Please let me know if you have any other concerns or questions and I am happy to answer them asap.
Thank you!
Christina, THEMAGIC5.
what is the returns process?@@themagic5goggles
