...I can wear goggles while skiing.
I have to disagree with what eri2807363 mentioned in his review. I have a pretty large head and wide glasses. I also tend to overheat very quickly resulting in never having been able to wear goggles while skiing before. My previous OTG goggles were pretty worthless to me (and smaller than these). I've been night skiing four times so far with these goggles and they've worked almost 100% of the time. There was only one instance where I actually had to take them off when I made the mistake of trying to ski slightly uphill and they just wouldn't unfog.
I will say that the headstrap is definitely too small to fit over a helmet (which I currently don't own--though I have a larger than average head). Also, after the first time I used it, I mistakenly left the fan switch to "on" so the batteries obviously died when I next needed to use them. So that's certainly something to keep in mind.
Overall, these goggles have been great. After never having been able to wear goggles before, these were a lifesaver.
