New England and Goggles

[SunshineSnowdream]

Hello all!

Any opinions on what the best type of Goggles for riding for New England weather....

Meaning- Sunny, cloudy, a little bit of both in the same day!


Thanks for your input!

Flat light googles will be used 95% of the time. The only time I use darker googles are in the spring. Even on a sunny winter day in new england the angle of the winter sun makes flat light googles needed untill mid march.

Whatever fits your face/helmet shape. As for tint? There is no magical lens for all. I always have at least 2 pairs at the mtn with me.

Ditto. I have 3 lenses that I always have with me: my Red Sensor Mirror, a Blue Sensor Mirror, and a Polarized Rose Copper. My Blues have been my "go to" for the season.

Anon M2. no offense to the Smith's, but I think swapping out the lens is much easier.

I need RX, so for me it's Transitions Drivewear glasses under clear goggles. Hasn't failed me yet.

I wear contacts. Glasses fog up for me if I try to wear them with goggles.

I have I/OX goggles with two lenses, a Blue Sensor and Ignitor mirror. The Ignitor is almost never used.

90% of the time I use Smith with the RC36 lens- great all around lens.
On sunny days I bring out my Bolle with modulator lens.

How well do those magnetic lens switches work? Always wondered if they're more apt to fog up and/or leak etc....
