I actually bought both this helmet and those goggles to pair up, and found problems.There's a bit of a gap at the top because the helmet is curved more than the Prodigy goggles. The width is just about right, though. They look pretty good.BUT, there are two major issues:1) The Prodigy goggles don't have very long straps for some reason -- if you have a L/XL helmet, the goggles are a pretty tight fit.2) The goggles have a 'snap-together' clasp in the middle of the strap... which is right where the funky goggle-holder contraption is. It doesn't fit together very well. You can sort of wedge it in there so it stays put, but it's definitely not ideal.
