ALL THE GEAR
AQUA SPHERE KAIMAN EXO £23
SWIM
Goggles £10-£50
The best goggles for open water swimming have large lenses with a wide range of vision to help with sighting and to avoid disorientation. Most manufacturers offer their open- water goggles in a variety of lens choices, from clear to darkly-tinted for all weather conditions.
Wetsuit £50-£700
SPEEDO BIOFUSE FIN £22
Swimming wetsuits are different from watersports suits and usually have a slick-skin outer coating for

wetsuit has plenty of buoyancy to keep you high in the water and flexible shoulders to help lessen arm fatigue while swimming. Fit should be tight, but not too constrictive. If you’re not ready to buy, you can rent wetsuits from as little as £50 online.
Pool toys £10-£15
SPEEDO ELITE PULLBUOY £11
Pool toys are designed to help you
improve your swimming technique by isolating certain parts of your body or emphasising particular movements. Pullbuoys sit between your thighs so you can focus on your arm

technique. Fins accentuate your kick and can help build flexibility. Paddles increase your catch on the water – but be wary, if you’re shoulders aren’t super strong, you could cause yourself an injury.
