Speedo Competition Nose Clip

The media could not be loaded. I've tried several nose clips for swimming, but the Speedo Nose Clip is by far the best! It fits comfortably without pinching too hard, yet it stays securely in place even during intense swim sessions. The soft silicone padding makes it comfortable to wear for extended periods, and the durable frame ensures it holds up well over time. Plus, the included storage case is a great touch for keeping it clean and protected.

Love these nose clips and the case is nice to have. I'm new to using nose clips and I had tried several of the plastic ones (not the Speedo brand ones) and they really hurt and were too tight. This is one is very comfortable and adjustable. As others noted, you may have to wipe off sunscreen. If you put this one and then apply sunscreen you can get good coverage.

My first time using a nose clip. I struggled to keep it on my nose as it keeps sliding off. I tried putting it on while it's dry, and that didn't make a difference. I haven't tried bending the wire to make it fit my nose. I tried using waterproof tape on my nose hoping it will stay in place. It takes a lot of fiddling to get it in the right spot. I think the tape was too thick. After a while I decided to just get used to not having a nose clip and I exhale through my nose to keep water out. Since the product was inexpensive, I decided to keep it and might help me later when I learn flip turns. I don't know. We'll see.

This works but you have to fiddle with it to get it right. When you get it right it stays but you may have to adjust it every lap. Lotion or oily nose will make you fiddle with it longer before you can get it right, will need to clean the top of your nose. Just need it to master techniques then hopefully I won’t use it anymore or as much.UPDATE: I had to change my review from 3 to 5 stars and the title from "Ok" to "Works Great". I reviewed the 1st one prematurely after a week or so of ownership 2 years ago and then I wasn't that great in swimming. I was fiddling with it, thinking it's not right. Now, its 2 years later, I have to say this thing is the best. I am a better swimmer, so I just pop it in and it's good to go without needing to readjust. It is comfortable, doesn't pinch, and it works in any orientation.

This is one of the 5 different nose clips I purchased in an attempt to locate one that fits. 1 out of the 5 work very well and another one works but has to be readjusted after a couple of laps. I think nose clips would fit everyone differently specially based on sex and race. I'm a female Caucasian with a small to average size nose. Also I read these reviews when I purchase something so I try to leave feedback when I can. This is only my opinion of the nose clips I tried. You might hate the ones I like and visa versa.I purchased1. Speedo Silicone Nose Clip2. * Speedo Competition Nose Clip *3. Tyr Soft Pad Swim Clip4. TYR Ergo Swim Clip5. Water Gear Synchro Nose Clip1. Speedo Silicone Nose ClipThis one was the winner! I really like it. This was by far the best clip out of the 5 I tried. It stayed on my nose and kept it closed no matter how many laps I did. It was comfortable to the point that I didn't even notice it while swimming. No need to adjust it because it stayed in place. I see Amazon only sells it in packages of 10. I purchased it from [...]. Comes with a nice case.2. * Speedo Competition Nose Clip *This one sort of worked but not well enough that I didn't want to try others. It was probably the second best one but still I had to adjust it after a lap. I think if you had a larger nose it would work. You can adjust it a little but it really has to do with the rubber not really holding in place on the nose so adjusting it didn't help much. Since it didn't fit it wasn't very comfortable and very noticeable. I keep this in my bag just in case something happens to the Speedo Silicone Nose Clip.3. Tyr Soft Pad Swim ClipThis one didn't work because it didn't clip tight enough for my nose and there was no way to adjust the fit. I think it would work very well if you have a larger nose because the rubber material grips the nose well. It grips much better than the rubber on the Speedo Competition nose clip. It was the only clip out of the group that floated. It comes with a case. Tyr Soft Pad Swim Clip4. TYR Ergo Swim ClipI really like this one when I first tried it but when I tried it at the pool as soon as it got wet the rubber wouldn't hold. It slipped completely off my nose as soon as I started to swim. If you're looking for a nose clip that you don't need to get wet this one held my nose close, stays on the nose, and is comfortable as long as I didn't get it wet. It comes with a nice case. There's no way to adjust the clip but its set tight so there's no need for me to adjust it. TYR Ergo Swim Clip5. Water Gear Synchro Nose ClipThis one was the cheapest but it was also far inferior in terms of the quality of the materials used. The wire is thinner than the wire used by Speedo and doesn't hold its shape. I don't think this would work for anyone. Also didn't come with a case.Water Gear Synchro Nose Clip

I've had both the speedo and the cressi nose plugs before and I don't recall how they compare in terms of their longevity. They both get sticky overtime, but when kept dry and in their cases, do well. The plastic of the Cressi is softer and lasts longer. Maybe that's a good reason to buy them. The Speedo plugs are tighter. Maybe that's a reason. Regardless, this design, in my opinion is much superior to the all plastic plugs. Those just slip right off my nose.

I bought this nose clip after first buying the cheaper plastic version and having it fall off my nose during my first swim. The plastic one is very stiff and the size cannot be adjusted so unless you are very lucky and have just the right nose size for it, it will not work well. After losing the plastic clip, I splurged and bought this nose clip which is much more malleable because it is made out of metal and I'm very happy with the purchase. You can bend it to fit your nose size/shape whereas the plastic one is not adjustable. On a related note, I decided to buy a nose clip because I would get horrible day-long allergies (unrelenting sniffles/runny nose) after swimming in the morning and I saw on a swimming forum people with similar problems to mine talking about how a nose clip was the one thing that instantly fixed this for them. The nose clip works great for me. No more sniffling/blowing my nose after swimming! Warning: nose clips will make you look like a dork. Personally, I'd rather look like a dork for an hour than have a runny nose for the entire day but you have been warned!
