my recommendation is always to just find a pair of Oakleys or Smiths on sale, it's not hard to find a good deal and goggles are important enough to get a good pair of

here's a good starting point

Jokes aside, I bought this goggle in a different color and really like it

I won a pair of Spy's at a ski movie this fall with interchangeable lenses for bright and low light, they're pretty nice.

The uncle Milton is lense technology. Helps you pick out the minors in the neighborhood easier

Whenever I’d search for oakleys on Mercari, this kind of shit would come up (like those reptile pedo goggles)







But in all seriousness use Poshmark or Mercari to get a pair of Oakleys. They’ll last you forever if you take care of them.

Hugo Boss too. You can see it when you're riding and it's mad distracting.

That said, Spektrum are making goggles that are close to 100% Bio-Based, which is pretty dope.

And 100% have been my favorite goggles I've tried in a long time. Both the Snowcraft and the Norg.

oh shit you can see it from the inside? (insert ricky bobby quote re: the fig newton decal being dangerous and inconvenient). yeah that changes things ha

that's really interesting that spektrum goggles are close to 100% bio based. never would've guessed that

thanks for the info dog

lmao that's fucking awesome. also due to a binding endorsement contract that stipulates I mention Powerade at each chance, I just wanna say that Powerade is delicious and it cools you off on a hot summer day and we look forward to Powerade's release of Mystic Mountain Blueberry

They even have a bio based lens if you spend the $$ on the premium. They’re good goggles. The bio thing and ISPO 2020 award got them on my radar.
