Nice gogs

By Ranked #994 - Goggles January 24, 2010

I had these out for a couple days. Optics are excellent across the whole range -- very pure, no blurring or aberrations. Field of view also is excellent, very good peripheral vision. For fogging, compared to my old gogs they'd get more momentary fogging, but it would dissipate immediately. On my second day out, when it was more humid, they took a microsecond longer to clear, but they never did fog up. I haven't tried them on a true fog-fest powder day, though... we'll see. Best of all, on day two it went from bluebird to total cloud cover as a storm was blowing in, so I was able to simply pop in the lighter lenses... it's awesome to have that flexibility. In terms of fit, they work perfectly with my Giro 9 helmet. However, when I tried them on in the store with the Giro 10 and Smith helmets, the adjusters at the back of those helmet pressed into my neck a bit as the goggle is so tall. That will vary by head shape, but keep it in mind.
