The Full Review:
So, I actually bought these as an extra pair of goggles to have because Next Adventure was having a sweet sale on them at the time. After using the Dragon X2S Snow Goggle this season, I honestly can’t tell the difference between these and another pair I bought for almost twice as much!
First, these are definitely a great value for the price! Secondly, the fact that they come with 2 lenses really sweetened the deal. The darker tinted lenses served well during some awesome bluebird days on Mt. Hood and the lighter tinted lenses were a godsend during my overcast backcountry trip on Mt. Rainier. They really allowed me to see the definition of the terrain I was skiing on which helped my confidence tremendously.
Another thing I liked about these goggles is the quick switch lens system to pop the lens in and out with ease. The lenses remain tight and locked down once in place. They also came with a vented goggles case just in case you have to put your goggles away wet for a bit. Lastly, the anti-fog coatings work well, I often ski with a balaclava and didn't experience any fog on the goggles.
The Good:
Great price
2 anti-fog lenses
Quick switch system
High definition lenses
Comfy
The Bottom Line:
The bottom line is that these are a sweet pair of goggles at an even sweeter price. I would recommend these to anyone looking for a new pair that they want to hold onto for a while. You can't ski well if you can't see well!
