The slighter build and plush foam allow for a flush fit against our smaller face, and the bonus lens lets us keep up with conditions when shredding bell to bell.

Just as an airline pilot needs a clear view of his landing, so do riders at resorts around the world need a clean sight on their next lift line. Oakley made its Flight Path Goggles with a generously-s more→ized frame, expanding your field-of-view at all angles, and it includes the beloved Prizm lens—making the subtle things in your path stand out even when the light is low.

The first powder day after a long dry spell can turn to low-viz pretty quickly. Pull the Smith Squad XL ChromaPop Goggles over our eyes and head into the madness with fellow powder-starved comrades. B more→oasting the largest cylindrical lens in Smith's fleet, the Squad XL delivers an expanded field of vision, so we spot those sneaky freeriders trying to snake our line in our peripherals. Smith's signature ChromaPop lens enhances color and detail, even if we spend most of our day in the white room. Anti-fog technology on the inner lens keeps things clear while we're huffing and puffing up the bootpack, and the silicone-backed strap holds our goggles secure if we decide to go big and eat it right …
