AquaLuxe Black Tinted Lens Swim Goggles - Bright Conditions and Outdoor Swimming
The POD® AquaLuxe Black Tinted Lens swim goggles feature a non-reflective, tinted lens to reduce light intensity in bright pool and ocean conditions. The same goggle body, seal, and fit system runs across the full AquaLuxe range. The lens changes between variants, each selected for a specific light condition.
Black tinted lenses suit outdoor pools, ocean swimming, and moderate to bright light, where reduced intensity helps without the reflective finish of a mirror coating.
Each pair includes a POD® Dry Capsule ventilated protective case for safe storage and drying between sessions.
All AquaLuxe lenses share the same proven fit and seal. Choose your lens based on when and where you swim.
Black Tinted Lens - Light Reduction Without Mirror Coating
Black tinted lenses reduce light intensity while maintaining a natural, non-reflective view in brighter conditions, so bright light stays easier to look through during longer sessions, without the added glare reduction of a mirror coating.
-
Black tinted visibility for outdoor pools, ocean swimming, and moderate to bright light
-
Anti-fog coating to maintain clear vision through each session
-
UV380 protection to reduce exposure to UVA and UVB rays
-
Shatter-resistant lenses for durability in pool and ocean use
-
Non-reflective lens finish for swimmers who prefer tint without mirror coating
Comfort and Secure Fit
Outdoor sessions in bright light tend to run longer, and a goggle you keep adjusting soon becomes the thing you notice most. The AquaLuxe goggle body is designed to fit a wide range of face shapes. Its LuxeSeal 3D silicone gaskets form a seal that is gentle enough to leave on from the first lap to the last.
-
LuxeSeal 3D silicone gaskets sit softly around the eye and keep the water out
-
DuraFlex frame and nose bridge bend to fit your face while keeping the tinted lenses in line
-
Adjustable silicone strap holds the goggles at a comfortable tension, so the seal does not depend on pulling it tight
A quick fit check: without the strap, press the goggles lightly to your eyes. If they stay on briefly by themselves, you have a good seal.
Where the Black Tinted Lens Works Well

POD® Dry Capsule - Storage and Lens Care

-
Ventilated design allows airflow to dry the goggles after use
-
Protective shell reduces pressure and contact on the lens in transit
-
Simple storage keeps goggles separated from other gear between sessions
