Good Goggles with Helmet

By Backcountry.com Employee December 16, 2009

These are cool looking, super light, and there a ton of color options, with all that said they make a great goggle when wearing a smith helmet or any helmet, however if you wear a hat get ready for some chilly eyeballs and alot of watering eyes. Not sure how fast you ski or ride but it doesnt take much speed to get the air flowing in these things and really messing with your eyes, I had some pretty horrible experiences with these goggles when I just had my hat on, this is the biggest take back I think in these goggles, however wear that helmet and you should be fine. The problem or should I say the issue is that there is a small gap where the lens and the frame meet its' great for non fogging, but when there is no helmet above it to direct the air the correct way then it just becomes cold, and annoying. They looks sweet tho!
