Hello everyone.

I am currently looking to replace my old pairs of goggles, and I am stuggling to find the best for me. Currently my choice has been balancing between Dragon APX and Electic EG2, and since I have absolutely no idea how "big" my face could be, maybe their small size equivalent (APXs / EG2.5).

Anybody can help me how to figure which size would fit the best ? I don't wear them with a helmet if that can matter.

Thanks in advance ! ;)

Yeah I totally forgot to mention that currently where I live, there is absolutely no shop or optical place where I can find these, because the winter season is over. My problem is that if I wait them to be available in real store (not from the internet I mean), I will miss some good off-season sales.

I found some informations about Electric goggles on an Ebay description, but I'm not sure that helps at all:

- EG2 is 16.5cm wide and 9cm high (6.6in / 3.6in)
- EG2.5 is 16cm wide and 7.5cm high (6.4in / 3in)

But you may think that this is (too) silly to order without trying first ? Thanks for you help though, this is much appreciated.

What country do you live in? Best bet would be an online retailer like evo or backcountry and returning if they dont work but it may be a hassle depending where you live.

I live in France, but close to the sea and pretty far from the slopes, so there is not many mountain shop around here even during the snow season. But you're probably right, even if I will loose some money on multiple possible returns, that'd still be a better deal than buying them.
