Swimming Accessories
When you're swimming anywhere outside of the pool there's considerably more thought and consideration that needs to go into each session. You're exposed to the elements, without the safety of a pool ledge nearby to grab on to, and you're often swimming large continuous distances. This makes picking out the right gear to optimise your performance, as well as your safety, is all the more important.
One of your biggest foes when in the water will be the cold, and the resulting potential of cramps or even drowning, particularly when open water swimming or ocean swimming. Of course, combating this issue all starts with choosing the right wetsuit, but there are other things you can add to your kit to keep yourself safe like inflatable devices and/or swim floats. A swimming float is the best way for a swimmer to ensure they're visible to boaties and divers in the area as well, and can help you stay afloat when you need a break.
This being said, we also stock gear to kit you out for pool swimming. We stock swim goggles and caps to keep you streamlined in the water. Generally, you'll find swim goggles are easy to adjust with specially designed lenses that prevent fogging and offer clear as day vision in the water. Swim caps are an essential part of your swim kit, acting as a hydrophobic layer over your hair or swim cap.
