The most useful gift for a swimmer is one that fixes a daily annoyance, and for most swimmers that is foggy, leaky goggles. Start there, then add something for the beach, the shower after the session, or the run and ride that follow for triathletes.
Here are four ideas from our gift ideas collection.
1. Anti-Fog Swimming Goggles: clear laps, no marks
The Anti-Fog Swimming Goggles have a one-piece panoramic lens with a 180° field of view, an anti-fog coating on the inside and a dark tint that cuts glare from sun on the water. The liquid silicone seal spreads pressure evenly, so it keeps water out without leaving deep rings around the eyes, and the double strap holds through dives and turns. They come in red and blue.
Who it's for: lap swimmers, open-water swimmers and triathletes. Our guide How to Stop Swimming Goggles From Fogging has care tips to pass on with the gift.
2. Adjustable Tint Sunglasses: for the beach and the pool deck
The SmartShade HD Adjustable Tint Sunglasses have a 9-level dial to set how dark the lenses are. The polarized lenses cut glare from water, and UV400 protection blocks 100% of UVA and UVB rays. They are unisex.
Who it's for: the swimmer who spends time by outdoor pools, at the beach or on the water.
3. AquaSound Shower Speaker: for the after-swim shower
The AquaSound Shower Speaker is a wall-mounted, sealed phone case with a built-in Bluetooth speaker. The touch-sensitive, anti-fog cover lets you skip tracks or answer calls without taking the phone out, and the speaker battery plays for up to 12 hours on a charge.
Who it's for: the swimmer who likes a playlist or podcast while rinsing off the chlorine at home.
4. Running Wrist Water Bottle: for triathletes
The Running Wrist Water Bottle holds 200 ml on the forearm, with a bite valve that seals itself after each sip. It is BPA-free and the valve comes off for rinsing.
Who it's for: swimmers who also run or cycle, so they can drink without carrying a bottle.
