 Speedo swimmers nose clips Jul 22, 2010
These are the best nose clips you can get for swimming or diving. Made by Speedo.
 Slips off, Not cute Jul 20, 2010
In addition to being a hideous color, these squeezed my already small nose to resemble Michael Jackson's non-existant nose. I was self concious to wear them and my boyfriend refused to look at me with them on. These helped a bit at first but kept slipping off eventually. I don't know where they are now. Probably at the bottom of a pool somewhere. :(

Great for its purpose Jun 18, 2010
I bought two pair of these for me and my wife about four years ago.
They are still in great condition. As opposed to cheap plastic clips you'll get in the sporting goods section of most department stores, these clips are quite comfortable to wear, and keep water out of your nose. I got them because we were both having problems with pollen that was floating on the water sending our sinuses into volcanic overload. With these clips on, that stopped immediately.
A+ product.

 Didn't work very well for me as another one did May 15, 2010
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.

1. Speedo Silicone Nose Clip
2. * Speedo Competition Nose Clip *
3. Tyr Soft Pad Swim Clip
4. TYR Ergo Swim Clip
5. Water Gear Synchro Nose Clip
1. Speedo Silicone Nose Clip
This 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 Clip
This 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 Clip
4. TYR Ergo Swim Clip
I 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 Clip
5. Water Gear Synchro Nose Clip
This 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

Not for short noses! Apr 14, 2010
I am Asian and have a fairly short, flat-ish nose so these nose clips really don't work at all for me. I gave it 3 stars though because I don't think it's fair to judge them by my nose type since they work pretty well for my friends. But when it comes down to it, I can't use these at all (I've really tried multiple times) because the pinchy part comes down below the end of my nose when I try to put them on correctly. So they'll work for about a half-lap before they slide off. If you have a short nose like mine, I wouldn't recommend these clips. I use the case for my earplugs now!
