Product Capabilities
Custom-Fit Swim Goggles
- Unique Fit Technology: Uses Optimal Fitting Technology algorithm and face scanning to map your face and customize by utilizing over 200,000 data points from a facial scan to ensure a perfect fit.
- Comfort & Performance: No suction-based seal, which reduces pressure marks, leakage, and discomfort.
- Lens Options: Clear, mirrored, tinted lenses optimized for indoor pools, outdoor bright light, or open-water swims.
- Use Cases: Training, competition, open water swimming, triathlon, casual recreational use.
How It Works (Technology & Customization)
THEMAGIC5 uses proprietary Optimal Fitting Technology™ to create custom-fit swimming goggles tailored to your unique facial contours. Instead of generic sizing, each pair is made to match only you using an intuitive smartphone scan that maps your face with precision.
1. Purchase Your Goggles
Choose your preferred goggle style and complete the order online. After checkout, you’ll receive an invitation through email to begin the custom fitting process.
2. Face Scanning via App
Download the THEMAGIC5 app and link scan to order. Using your phone camera, the app guides you through a quick 3D face scan that captures the exact shape of your eye sockets, nose bridge, and facial structure. This data is analyzed by advanced algorithms based on over 200 000 data points to design your bespoke goggles.
3. Production
Once your scan is verified (typically within 1–2 days), the production team uses your data to manufacture goggles with a personalized gasket and perfectly matched nose piece.
With this process, THEMAGIC5 goggles deliver zero water leakage, no suction marks, and unmatched comfort, enabling you to swim distraction-free — whether in training, competition, or open water.

Many have been fantastic, but none have instantly fitted and created a seal as quickly as the ones from TheMagic5. That in itself, will likely recommend them to anyone who has struggled to find a pair to suit them.’’
