Whats are some good goggles to wear with a helmet? I scratched my old ones so I'll need a pair for next year. I can afford quality.

(I've got places to go, therefore, I simply ignored the massive search bar)

tons of options man, smith fuse, smith prodigy, oakley a frame, oakley wisdom, anon figment, scott messenger...the list goes on. Look for things like double lens, antifog coating, lots of mesh/foam for good breathablility.

you could not be more wrong. The wisdoms fit perfectly with the giro g10 and the g10mx. They dont look as good with the mx as the regular but they still fit.
You could also go with the crowbar, any anon, most any spy sept the orbit(pretty much a chick goggle anyway).

Not with Sweet Trooper S1 (visor) look at Niklas Karlström.
And the Giro 9 MX with Wisdoms.
That looks dope.

dude if you really want a sick goggle that will fit perfect on a helmet, a crowbar. i had a frames and they fit good but the crowbar just tops them all. wisdoms dont do well with helmets, usually u have to order a strap ext. from oakley which is a pain. save up some dough and u can prolly get them for 120. good investment. or pretty much anything anon

Goggles are all fit.

It depends on your face size also. wider face, go smith/anon, narrower face, go oakley/dragon/spy

dragons fit wider than smith and anon, unless your get the dxs. and wisdoms fit huge as well, it depends on the model. spy even has a goggle that fits big next year too. also, both smith and anon make goggles that fit smaller. you'd need to be more specific to the model when talking in terms of fit.

I like smith alot, they never fog and are really comfortable. Try the prodagies (big fit) or fuse (medium fit), I have not tried them but the Phenoms look sweet, they are exspansive but look really cool, all of them should fit with a helmit well. Look for labor day weekend sales there are usualy a few around, and they have everything so just bring you helmit and try A few goggles, last year I got Prodagies for $50.

Wisdoms fit narrow...They sit on the edge of my eyeballs.

Eevery spy i have put on does the same.

And the DXS is the only dargon i have tried.




The Fuse, Triad, Figment and Prodigy all fit my wide face perfect.
