Frames are a thing of the past and the Giro Contour RS Goggles show why. The frame-less design offers a clean style and outrageously wide peripheral vision, while the magnetic lenses let us change len more→ses while the sun goes in and out from behind winter clouds.

No one has a better appreciation of wonder than a young skier or snowboarder looking at a beautiful mountain through the Oakley Target Line S Goggles. These shades offer a compact fit for smaller face more→s, eyeglass compatibility, and a Plutonite lens that boosts contrast and color for crispy optics.

Smith took everything we love about the standard 4D MAG Goggles and decreased the size for smaller faces to create the 4D MAG S Goggles.

The Vans Hi-Standard OG Snowboard Boot brings the street style we love to the mountain with its classic Vans design and comfortable fit. They feature a medium flex that provides both support and play, more→making it ideal for stomping tricks in the park and ripping down groomers alike. We like the traditional lacing system for providing us with the ability to tighten or loosen certain areas for optimal riding comfort, and we also like the comfort and flex the V1 UltraCush Liner brings.

Our favorite option for learning to ride, The Shifty Snowboard Boot is stuffed with an incredible amount of comfort and convenience. Inside the Shifty, ThirtyTwo's microfleece-lined Comfort Fit liner more→provides a cozy-warm feel without irritation. This liner is comprised of Intuition foam for an adaptive, heat-moldable fit that wraps our feet in heavenly comfort and molds to the unique contours of our feet as we ride throughout the season. Its internal lacing system tightens over the liner to eliminate heel lift, and the comfy Evolution Foam sole softly cushions and reliably grips on icy walkways.

The X2 is an introductory touring boot with warmth and stability for all-around use. The boot's tall cuff and zip-up lace cover seal out snow, while a Thinsulate lining wraps your foot for warmth. The more→touring-specific sole and lateral heel support provide stability for all-around trail skiing.

Back for another season, the Lexa X EST Snowboard Binding still offers the most-popular pro-caliber control on the mountain. With upgrades that make this binding lighter and reground materials that ma more→ke the design greener, this year's edition is our favorite yet. Double Take buckles with Insta-Click let us strap in fast so we can keep charging lap after lap, and the supportive Heel Hammock and highback keep us comfortable while maximizing support. Underfoot, the strong, responsive, and shockingly playful baseplate is equipped with shock-absorbing EVA and B3 gel padding.
