I've recently bought two pair of Carrera goggles that fit very comfortably, but the lens is designed in such a way that the front separates from the side - they're two pieces glued together - much too easily. The feature of the Carreras - aside from their size - that made them comfortable is a gap in the foam where the temples of the glasses go. The Smiths that I have don't have that gap, but I've seen some goggles other than the Carreras - maybe including newer Smiths - that have it. -- Ed Gould mt Xinu, 2910 Seventh St., Berkeley, CA 94710 USA {ucbvax,decvax}!mtxinu!ed +1 415 644 0146 "A man of quality is not threatened by a woman of equality."
