About Speedo
In 1914, Speedo was founded in Australia by Alexander MacRae, a 22-year-old Scottish immigrant who arrived in the country in 1910. The company began when MacRae Hosiery manufacturers, established by Alexander in 1914, extended the manufacture of underwear to swimwear and became MacRae Knitting Mills. A naming competition was held by the staff in 1928 and won by a Captain Parsonson, who coined the slogan, "Speed on in your Speedos." In 1929, the first swimsuits were in production and it didn?t take long for Speedo to successfully establish itself. World War II caused the brand turn over 90% of it?s manufacturing to war production, providing the armed services with vital equipment such as mosquito nets. After the war, Speedo opened a new factory and was able to re-establish itself, due to increased demand for swimsuits. In 1951, Speedo Knitting Mills (Holdings) Ltd, was incorporated and became a publicly traded company on the Sydney Stock exchange.

Speedo hit the international stage in earnest, at the 1956 Melbourne Olympic Games, and a few years later the brand grew on a more global scale. Export sales to the USA began and an international division was set up to monitor trade in New Zealand, Japan and South Africa. The expansion of the brand continued, and in 1976, Speedo was appointed as the official swimwear for the 1976 Montreal Olympics, where 52 out of 54 countries wore their swimsuits.

Speedo continues to make its mark in the pool and on the beach today. Many world class athletes who wear Speedo include U.S. phenomenon Michael Phelps, legendary Australian swimmer Grant Hackett, world record holder Kosuke Kitajima from Japan, and Holland?s Inge de Bruijn.

Sports reviews of Speedo Vanquisher Swim Goggle

Customer Review: Perfect
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

When I first received them I was a bit skeptical. They didn't seem big enough since I have a large nose, but once I was in the water I had no troubles. No leaks, ever. I have had a bit of fogging lately but that is to be expected. Great pair of goggles.

Customer Review: excellent googles
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

I purchased in 8/09. They work great. A little discomforting at first around the eye sockets, but that quickly went away after a couple of uses. Water doesn't get in and doesn't fog up. They fit great and highly recommend these googles.

Customer Review: great bargain

What a bargain. These are now my favorite pair of goggles. I paid three times this for my last pair. They fit securely, yet comfortably. No leaking and no fogging. They were a little slow to ship -two weeks- but worth the wait.
