I was shocked to see a 1 star-review only to realize it’s from 2010 so clearly a lot has changed :) I bought a pair of swimming goggles from a department store only to read later that swimming with contact lenses is potentially dangerous; wearing goggles makes it safer, but there’s risk some water could seep in. I googled ‘prescription goggles’ and found a RFD forum post mentioning they’re available off-the-rack at the Swim & Sports store in Mississauga. I received quick responses by email from Kerrie(I expect she’s the owner) on Tuesday. I went to the store the same day and met her there — she was very friendly and knowledgeable of the products. I was pleasantly surprised to find they have THREE types of goggles at my prescription level. 2 different styles, + 1 with tint. Kerrie opened up the packaging of the 2 styles of goggles so I could try them out, and explained the differences between them. The price for the goggles are $ 25 – 32, much less than I expected. I also asked for a nose clip — they had like 6 different types($ 5 – 7 mostly). Kerrie shared which was most popular and why. Overall, exceptional service and very useful store for anyone looking for swimming supplies. NOTE: the goggles come in increments of .5 and both left/right are the same level — e.g. –1.00, –1.50, –2.0, etc.

The service is POOR. The sales staff is very unfriendly and unwelcoming. Took me one hour to find this place, only to be EXTREMELY disappointed with the AWFUL service that I received from whom I believe to be the store owner. Unbelievable. 0 stars. With service like that, they do not deserve business. Do yourselves a favor and go elsewhere. They don’t have much to offer.
