Buckle for a pair of swimming goggles

A buckle for adjustably securing a strap of a pair if swimming goggles, the buckle comprising:

• a frame having first and second side edges opposed to each other in a longitudinal direction that extends along a length of the strap, first and second ends opposed to each other in a direction orthogonal to said longitudinal direction, and a plurality of partitions arranged between said first and second ends that connect said first and second side edges to each other,
• said partitions defining a plurality of strap guiding holes in the frame that are arranged in said longitudinal direction,
• said plurality of strap guiding holes including first and second outmost strap guide holes that are adjacent the first and second ends of the frame and at least first and second inner strap guiding holes that are positioned between the first and second outermost strap guiding holes,
• widths of the first and second outermost strap guiding holes measured in said orthogonal direction being larger than widths of the at least first and second inner strap guiding holes measured in said orthogonal direction,
• the first and second outermost strap guiding holes being formed at said first and second side edges adjacent said first an second ends with first and second slots that have openings which extend through the first and second side edges which openings are progressively decreasing from outer surface of said first and second side edges toward centers of the first and second outermost strap guiding holes,
• wherein each of said at least first aid second inner strap guiding holes have openings that are dimensioned to be progressively reduced in size form first and second inner strap guiding holes lying inwardly adjacent said first and second outermost strap guiding holes toward innermost ones to the at least one first and second inner strap guiding holes.
