No leak, good for long use but fogging like crazy
I just bought one of Rocket Socket 2.0 without anti-fog and I discover with horror how much these goggle fog like crazy. The moment I put them on, it already start to fog. I swim in a fog the whole time: I cannot even see a guy face 2 foot from me. On the plus side, there is no leakage after 2h17m of swimming, it did not hurt my eyes to wear this goggle and it's comfortable to some degree.
So if u want to use them either buy an anti-fog solution or take baby shampoo wipe on the goggles. Wipe the extra mixture off with a cotton ball, but be sure to leave a thin layer of the mixture on it. Spray with water, and your done. It works for at least 2 weeks of swimming 40+ miles

Simply THE BEST
These take the cake. They are, bar none, the highest echelon in competitive swimming eyewear. Until I tried these, I prefered swedish style goggles, and these really have the same feel. SR's provide a bit of silicone on the outer rim of the gaskets that make them slightly more comfortable to wear while maintaing that hard and tight seal notorious to swedes. They NEVER leak, and because the lenses are of slightly higher quality, they are less prone to fogging. Distance swimmers and sprinters alike will find something to love here.
I loved the 1st version of TYR's socket Rockets, but version 2.0 incorporates a lot of adjustability while maintaining the legendary low profile and encased fit of swedes. The only drawback to these goggles out of the box is the strapping; TYR is notorious for selling quality lenses with poor strapping, and you will likely end up replacing the headstrap after about 2 months of continous swimming. I would recommend getting a strong silicone...
Great surprise
I was hesitant about ordering these - I hate the feeling of small goggles pressing on my eye balls during long workouts and tend to go with bigger models for training. But for the price I figured I'd give them a try and maybe keep them just for meets. I am very surprised by the comfort and overall fit. I swim about 4000m 3x a week and these goggles never leak, fall off on off-the-block starts or leave marks around my eyes afterwards. As others pointed out, they do not have anti-fog coating and fog up very quickly. But to me this is not a problem - that coating doesn't last long anyways and good old spit or shampoo takes care of the problem easily.
