From sea level to alpine ridges, our guide to goggles covers all the best styles for every kind of active lifestyle'and fashionable style. Regardless of the time of year, it's always the season to stock up on fabulous protective gear for your eyes.
Goggles are truly an essential part of the outdoor enthusiast's wearable gadgetry, whether you go for extreme sports or leisurely laps. We're here to take you on a journey with your next pair of goggles, from powder-packed peak to sublime aquatic adventures!
Attitude at Altitude
When it comes to wintertime mountain adventures ' skiing, boarding, mountaineering, or even sledding ' it's always important to protect your eyes from the elements, most importantly the sun's reflection off the snow. Some features to consider when choosing your goggles are the type of tinting and lens color, the strap type, and the amount of coverage.
For most alpine sports we highly recommend a full coverage pair of goggles with polarized and/or 100% UVA/UVB protective lenses. The 'Solace Painted Goggles' from Anon by Burton seem to offer it all, not to mention they are stylish! The vented dual lens delivers anti-fog protection in addition to the other standard features, and a range of color options for frame and lens appeals to men and women alike. Catch some speed and some attention as you bomb down the mountain in these killer goggles while sporting your matching Burton jacket!
Getting Deep at Submerged Depths
For those of us born with our sea legs, our underwater goggles need to meet different, but equally as important criteria in order to have safe and enjoyable journeys below the surface. Goggles for swimming differ based on the kind of swimming for which they are meant. Speed vs. leisure is important considerations and will determine the shape, tinting and fit of your goggles.
If swimming for sport is your game, then the trusted Speedo brand for goggles is your answer! The 'GCG Plus' goggles combine a stealthy streamlined look with total UV protection, revolutionary graduated compression gasket, and comfortable double silicone strap. The technology of these goggles makes them perfect not only for sport but for fun in the sun. Grab your Speedo swimsuit and get going!
Goggles for Ground Level
Although often overlooked, goggles are needed for so many other sports and outdoor activities. From dirt bike racing and shooting to skydiving and construction, it's always important to keep your eyes protected! A handful of brands make high-quality multi-purpose goggles perfect for any land-based activity. Some are tinted like sunglasses for daytime while others have clear lenses for nighttime or situations in which tinting would hinder your safety.
The Wiley 'High Velocity Protection Goggles' with matte black frame are mil-prf-31013 ballistic certified, military authorized, and come with both smoke tinted and clear lenses that are interchangeable for each job. If you were to buy only one pair of goggles today ' these should be it! Their low profile and lightweight system works perfectly under helmets and with other head gear.
We can't stress enough the importance of protecting your eyes ' even during the most routine activities. Planning on hanging new curtains? Put on a pair of household goggles before you start to drill. You will be happier and safer in the long run. With our guide to goggles you should be ready to get going with all your life's adventures!
