The Smith Transit Goggles have a snug fit for rippers with small faces and provide enhanced depth perception on the slopes. The Transit Goggles' adjustable lens vents lets you control the amount of airflow—a lot when you start heating up on the hill, or a little when you're just cruising the groomers. Wicking foam keeps these Smith goggles feelin' good on warm spring days, and the custom-painted frame gives you a solid look as you head into the park. See the sizing chart for info on the lens tints.
Bottom Line: Depth-perception enhancement for small faces.
What would you choose; this or a replacement Crowbar lens? I have the Seth Morrison's with persimmons lens. I've been rocking a pair of Smith Triads for years before this season. I need a lens for sunny days. I had blue birds in Utah last week but it was to bright to use my goggles. I spend the rest of my time in southern Vermont. If I get a replacement lens, it would be black iridium, blue iridium, or vr28 black iridium. If I went with these Smith's, would you go with Ignitor Mirror or Platinum mirror?
stick with the crowbars, they better...and if you're looking for a sunny day lens i would go with fire hands down. but if you NEED one of the ones you said, the black iriduim is the best
I just need a decent pair of goggles for skiing....haven't skied in 15 years..don't want to overspend unless I know I am for sure getting back into the sport. I like the white intersection-should I get the platinum mirror or something else?

I liked the look of these goggles but wished I had tried them on first - they sat funny on my face squishing my nose down. If I moved them up the rim was just under my eyes - they are made for a smaller face. I wish they worked but I had to return them.
These goggles (white intersection/sensor mirror) are even more adorable in person than online. I was weary they would look too big and bulky on my face, but they are perfect! The lens doesn't pick up quite as much blue as the picture makes it out look, but still picks up lots of fun and hot colors. I love the clasp on the back of the elastic so I don't have to always pull the goggles up over my head to get them off, which consequently always results in my hat being pulled off and my hair getting all crazy. My only issue with these is that the ventilation foam between the goggle frame and forehead cushion is so thin I can just see myself poking my finger straight through it... so be careful there! Overall, very cute and good a buy.
No goggle is fog proof. The lenses are treated with an anti-fog coating and have vents to try and prevent fogging.I have had mine for a couple of seasons and haven't had problems with them fogging up.
These goggles get the job done, and Smith makes excellent lenses. These frames are a solid choice for those of us with smaller to mid size faces. I think the spherical series goggles are a step up though. Smith's mirror lenses have great optics, and there are good ones for every kind of condition. Platinum Mirror are great for sun, and the Sensor Mirror are excellent in low, flat light on storm days. I like the Ignitor Mirror for in-between days, and for morning and late afternoon when you're in and out the shade (though not as much of a problem in the spring). I have a pair of RC36 lenses, and I'm not overly impressed. I'd stick with the mirrored varieties!
K, you actually have to ask the question, not establish that you have one. Otherwise the answer to "I have a question" is "goodie" or"go on..." or something of the sort. Live Chat is also a really good way to get questions answered, and much faster.
