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.

Rating: - Surely a 4.5!
This works the best. I have taken swimming as my main workout for I do believe that I come from the water (The Toadies..."I come from the water", hot song!). My issue with regular goggles seemed to be that sooner or later some water would enter the eyes area. Also the small window in which you are allowed to see. With the Mask I am much more happier. First, it covers a much bigger area and the seal aspect is more complete. No more aggravation in the middle of a lap when some unwanted water disturbs ... Read More
Rating: - swim mask by speedo
I purchased this product because I have a mask with a nose piece that doesn't fit well. this mask fits me the best(high cheek bones) and works very well. I really like the grey colored lenses. I used them in my pool to check different areas as well as swim in them. My triplet grandchildren who are 3.5 years old also are learning how to swim using regular speedo goggles.
Rating: - Best Mask Ever
This is the best face mask you'll ever own; great fit, no leak, full vision, what more can you ask for? I have tried 4 types of masks before purchasing this one and I have since purchased 2 more and 1 for a friend.
I swim everday and this mask holds up well and never leaks if you keep if fairly clean.
