What goggles give the best peripheral (side) vision along with what is directly in front of you (downward)? Let me know what you all think.

Hey I ride for Dragon. The Mx are for a wider face and the Foil (kickass) are for a slightly narrower face. But as far as the lens quality goes, if you think Oakley is the best, then you would like Dragon. Theres a rumor that Oakley makes the lens for Dragon, and might even own them too.

oakley does not work with, or own dragon. oakley actually tried to trademark the dragon name outside the US to screw dragon from exporting product. dragon had to sue oakley.

dragon goggles kick ass. they're just as great as the a frames i had, except they fit a hell of a lot better with a giro 9 than a frames do. a frames have a gap on a giro 9 and dragon dxs don't

Yeah the Dragon DX are good goggles, i've never had mine steam up and they are hard wearing. The foils are the shit.

I like Scotts and Smiths. I have never had any problem with them. The Oakleys are to expensive. Im going to try Arnettes this year and see how they are.

When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading.
