Key features for finding the perfect snow goggle.
When you’re on a mountain surrounded by snow, howling wind, and other riders barreling down the slopes at full speed you need the best equipment possible to protect and enhance your vision. Bobby Dean, Lead Product Gearu at APEX by Sunglass HutSM
, recommends snow
goggles as the ideal choice over sunglasses because their features are designed to combat freezing temperatures, wind, and moisture that can lead to poor visibility and discomfort.

Lens Tint - If you ride 1 to 2 times a year, choose an all-purpose contrast lens. If you ride multiple times, choose one lens for flat light and one for bright light conditions. If riding is an obsession, choose a quick interchangeable lens goggle with three lenses—one for flat, medium, and bright light conditions.
Anti-Fogging Lens - There’s nothing that can ruin your ride more quickly than goggles that fog. Look for a dual-lens, anti-fog lens coatings, moisture wicking face foams, and venting ports to ward off the evils of fogging.

Protection - Dagger like ski poles & tree branches should be enough motivation to wear some serious eye protection. Injection molded polycarbonate lenses provide the ultimate in protection because the lenses are thicker and more rigid.

Comfort & Fit - More layers of foam and a snuggly soft fleece lining means more comfort. Try on multiple goggles to make sure the design matches your unique facial features.
Peripheral Vision - Oversized lenses and Spherical lens goggles (which mimic the shape of the human eye) are the best for enhancing your field of vision. Also make sure the inner facial foam doesn’t obstruct your view.
