Description

See it, slay it.

The sun may have blinded your park landings in the past, but with the easily swappable lens of the Oakley Airbrake Goggle, you'll be able to stomp it all in any light. The glove-friendly, pivoting Switchlock Technology pops the lens out of the frame and lets you replace it with an included spare that better matches the mountain's conditions. Once you clamp down the built-in switch, you'll get that same undistorted, UV-blocking, and glare-busting Oakley vision for every bump, cat track, and landing that crosses your snowy war path.
  • Tough Plutonite lenses block out 100% of UVA, UVB, UVC, and harmful blue rays
  • Rigid outer frame and flexible inner frame yield a durable but form-fitting design that doesn't cramp your nasal cavity
  • Three-layer fleece foam liner is soft and smooth on your face and dries quickly after you rag-doll for a hundred yards and sweat while retrieving your gear
  • Dual top lens vents and F3 Fog Technology prevents interior condensation during hikes and after falls
  • Interchangeable strap outriggers let you fine-tune the fit to your helmet or helmet-free riding
  • Comes with two differently shaded lenses (and a soft case) that match high and low-light conditions, but Oakley offers many more lens options (sold separately)

This goggle is great for any skier. It has a fast way of swapping lens. Within 30secs you can switch from a low-light lens to a bright lens. The lens are very durable and scratch resistant, meaning most scratches can be buffed out with the micro-fibre case that is included. The handy carrying case makes it easy to store your goggles when not in use. The FOV (field of visoin) is very wide and allows you to maximize your vision while skiing. The shape of the goggle fits to most helmets. I have the Bern Macon and it fits perfectly to the helmet leaving no gap. Overall these goggles are great and i would suggest them to anyone. However, if Oakley isn't your thing than the Smith I/O or I/OX are a great option as well. All 3 of these goggles a basically identical with small differences.

9000 feet on a bluebird day. Blacl iridium lenses were clutch!
I've been riding since 1986 and these are the sickest goggles I've ever used. Lens switch-out took less time than removing or storing the lenses in the bag.

Well designed switchable lens goggle. Easy to switch lens while riding the lift without smudging the lens. Comfortable fit and strap fits a helmet well. Large assortment of replacement lenses available down to 90% VLT if you ski in snowy or night conditions.

Googles fit right and are clear enough. The two lens' are really useful when alternating between sunny and cloudy days and if you have a garage sale and need a new lens you have an extra. Price is a little much but the Price Guarantee ensures your getting the best deal for at least a month (I got $70 back when they went on sale in the spring) and the googles just looks good!

Which one is better, black iridium or dark grey?

It's more a personal preference but the dark grey lense is for brighter days as it allows less light in and the black iridium would be more of a medium light lense. Since the airbrakes do come with 2 lenses, your better option would probably be the dark grey in my opinion.

Great goggles! I have a pair of Oakley Crowbars aswell, and these Airbrakes just fit much more comfertable. On the other hand, they feel sort of cheap with squeeking plastic etc.
Overall I give them 4/5. For the price they should feel alot better built.

Purchased the X-weave (fire and persimmon lenses) right before the last storm in Tahoe. Great field of vision with super fast lens change! Fits just like the crowbars with a slightly better view. Soft case is a nice touch to keep it all together while traveling.

bought these the other day because they fit awesome with Bern Helmets and my wide face. I have never breathed easier though my nose in another goggle. The goggles feel well built and the lens are crystal clear! Convert from Smith to Oakley for life!

Awesome goggle! You can swap the lens while you are skiing if you really want, its that easy. I keep my spare lens on me at all times and it is so great because I can always adapt to light conditions. Super comfy. Feels great on my face. Never fogs. Buy these!

I previously had crowbars and I was basically looking for a similar goggle, but with an interchange-able lens (for changing light, massive powder stack etc), which is exactly what the airbrakes are.

Being like the crowbars they suit a fat-melon head like mine! They are a large profile goggle.

The lens changing is extremely simple, I've had no problem with the seal between lens and goggle frame (as other reviews suggest, I'd send it back if that was the case).

Ferchrissakes don't complain about them fogging if you hike with them on, that happens to any goggle.

I have a smith vantage helmet and they fit fine together.

they're built very similar to the Crowbar/ Splice. The goggles will be fine. If you're worried about hitting your head good, buy a helmet.

I've been through a couple nasty spills with these bad boys, never had an integrity issue, nor any fogging or freezing (I haven't hiked in them yet, however).

I was skiing and hit a cliff,double ejected, landed on my face, and then tommied down the hill! Goggles not only were fine, but not a scratch on the lens.

Too pricey fog up way too easy I get a little sweaty and they start fogging up or fog up on powder days I went back to wearing my 60 dollar dragons no fog no problems I hate airbreak waste of money in my opinion

I bought these last season and really liked the optics, fit, look and the easy lens changes but found them to be fatally flawed. On storm days days snow would get inside the goggle lens at the bottom on either side of the nose. The lens is basically only secured at the sides and thus allows for a less-than-tight seal between lens and goggle frame--fine for bluebird but no good in storm conditions.

These goggles are great. I like the new lens changing system that Oakley has used with this goggle. Changing lenses literally only takes about 30 seconds. The lens is great for sunny days and blocks out the UV rays very well.

These are by far my favorite goggles. The ventilation is great and they never fog up, even in those long lift lines. They come with two different lenses, one is more for sunny days and one for overcast or night. You can change the lenses within seconds. The best changing system i have ever seen. I will have these for a long time and put them to good use.

Great visibility, airflow, comfort, etc. I found the lens to scratch fairly easily. good thing they interchange so easily!

I like these better than my Smith I/O mainly because there is ZERO fogging. The lense swap is about as easy and simply as it could get, and the peripheral is great with these. Not to mention they look sick.

Fit great with my Bern helmet.

Awesome Goggle

You have a cool ski jacket. I'm currently looking for the good one, but is not so easy to find. What brand you've got?

Its Norrona, they make great quality gear that also looks pretty cool, check it out.

Would you say the Smith I/O or the Airbrake has better peripheral vision and which one is better for a larger face overall? I have the Airbrakes and feel that they are really thick and they stick out past my helmet significantly so I was thinking of switching to the I/O's...

Dan Kasali

Member since

The airbrakes definitely come out a lot further than the smith I/O, and I think this takes up little peripheral, but not the kind of peripheral that you need for skiing (maybe I'm unable to see my jacket zipper but nothing important in my vision/line of site is obstructed). I personally found the airbrakes to be more comfortable, they seem to have a stronger frame design, and I think the ventilation and distance from face make for better anti-fogging than the smiths. Both goggles look sick so you can't go wrong there.

good
