Speedo Silicone Nose Clip 10-Pack
August 31, 2010 at 5:56 am
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 purchased
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. Speedo Competition 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

Title clearly stated that the clips were being sold as a 10 pack. I got one. Seller never responded to multiple emails.
As far as the nose clip… It has worked effectively on 5 year old girls and 30 year old men. I have had no issues with the product. It comes in a little round case to keep it clean and safe. The one I received is blue, so if you are looking for the more discreet orangy-peach, be aware of the multiple colors. I would buy the product again, just not from this seller.
