Ski Goggles

Which Goggle Lens Colour is Best?

In general, lenses with darker hues reduce the light transmission, making them perfect for sunny conditions. Conversely, lighter lenses allow more light to pass through, which is beneficial on overcast, darker days. Regardless of the colour, each lens is assigned a VLT rating expressed as a percentage (Visual Light Transmission). A lower VLT-% means less light penetration, ideal for bright days. Conversely, a higher VLT-% allows more light, which is best suited for cloudy and snowy conditions.

Certain goggles are designed with interchangeable lenses, enabling you to switch lenses to adapt to varying weather circumstances. In our selection, ski or snowboard goggles may include an additional complimentary lens.

Are Ski Goggles Necessary for Children?

Indeed, it is essential for children to wear ski goggles as they provide crucial protection against diverse weather conditions while skiing and enhance their visibility. Junior ski goggles lenses not only filter out damaging UV rays from the sun but also serve as a barrier against wind and snow. This also benefits your child by keeping their face warm.

Kids’ snow goggles offer numerous features that might influence your choice of model. Key features to consider include anti-fog technology, OTG (Over The Glasses) for children who wear spectacles, and interchangeable lenses. Having a swappable lens gives the option for a bright, sunny day lens and another for darker, snowy days. The most effective kids’ ski goggles will incorporate these features, or ideally, all of them.

Ensuring that your children are dressed correctly forms another vital aspect of a successful skiing experience. To maintain warmth, they should don thermal clothing as base layers. To explore our offerings, take a look at Ski Base Layers.
