Tinted Lens for Bright Days - PF1 Fins and Black Tinted Goggles
The POD PF1 Swim Fins and AquaLuxe Black Tinted Lens Goggles pair two pieces of swimming equipment for outdoor sessions and bright days. The PF1's forgiving natural rubber flex adds push to every kick, whether you're swimming laps in an outdoor pool or heading out into open water. The AquaLuxe Black Tinted Lens cuts glare and lowers the light reaching your eyes in mixed to bright conditions, without the reflective coating of a mirror lens.
PF1 POD Swim Fins
Outdoor swimming means ocean pools, harbour swims and stretches of coast where the water keeps moving. The PF1 handles it all with a light touch. It's the lightest fin in the PF Series, and its rail flows smoothly into the blade with no vertical top rails, so the blade bends easily with your kick. Your legs settle into an even rhythm you can hold for the whole swim.
Chop and current push swimmers off line. The symmetrical blade and Splay Rails® keep both fins working evenly, which helps you stay on course between markers. The natural Malaysian rubber floats, and drainage channels flush sand from the pocket after a beach entry.
The PF1 is an easy fin to start with, and fitness swimmers and younger swimmers settle into it quickly.
Usage tip: Walking on the sand in rubber fins wears the blade and stretches the pocket. Carry them to the water's edge and put them on once you're in, or walk in backwards.

AquaLuxe Black Tinted Lens Swim Goggles
The AquaLuxe Black Tinted Lens Goggles use 180° curved polycarbonate lenses with a black tint that cuts the light reaching your eyes in mixed to bright conditions. The tint suits outdoor pool training and open-water swimming in changing light, without the reflective coating of a mirror lens. An anti-fog coating keeps the lenses clear through longer sessions, and the lenses block UVA and UVB rays.
Silicone gaskets form a close, secure seal across a range of face shapes without pressing on the eye socket. The adjustable split silicone strap holds the goggles in place through turns and push-offs. They suit both youth and adult swimmers, and every pair comes with a Dry-Capsule eyewear case.

Care and safety
Don't wear the goggles over dermatitis, sunburn or irritated skin around the eyes. If you notice redness or discomfort, stop using them. For younger swimmers, an adult should help with the first fitting and show them how to adjust the strap, so the goggles sit comfortably and don't snap back when they come off.
