The first feature to consider when choosing the best type of goggle lenses for snowboarding is fit. In order to make sure they fit correctly, having your helmet and hat that you wear during the activity can help. Most of the time the goggles get strapped over the helmet or hat and this can cause them to stretch a bit. Once you have put them on, the face foam should feel snug, without feeling uncomfortable pressure points. You should not feel any air flow through the sides as this can cause the goggles to fog and dry out your eyes. Looking for frames that have foam-covered holes will allow air to flow through properly without causing them to fog.

Not only is the fit of the frame important but so is the fit of the actual lens. In order to consider the best type of goggle lenses for snowboarding make sure they have the following factors.

• Double lenses to prevent fogging
• Mirror coating to provide proper light filtering
• Anti-scratch/anti-fog resistant

It is extremely important to make sure the lens filters the light properly to protect the eyes from UV radiation. This is another reason why knowing the proper weather conditions can be important. Clear lenses are the best type of goggle lenses for snowboarding in extremely snowy conditions. Yellow lenses also work well for snowy conditions but also will help increase contrast and brighten up tings around you. Another lens that is ideal for just about any weather condition is a pink lens with a silver mirror coating. This will increase contrast and will help protect the eyes during very sunny days.

Once you have chosen the best type of goggles for snowboarding, you will have the finishing touch on all the essentials for protecting your eyes. Always store them in a protective pouch and clean them as instructed. Not only will this make them last longer but will keep them in tip top shape to enjoy many seasons of your favorite sport.

BOLLE GOGGLE TECHNOLOGY

Flow-Tech Venting – Bolle designs its goggles to control and optimize the flow of air over the inside of the lens to reduce fogging. Venting ports are located to enhance design and control air flow without clogging with snow.

P80 (Anti-Fog Coating) – Bolle applies P80 to the inside of our cylindrical double lenses. Combined with thermal insulation of the double lens and Equalizer technology, it provides superior anti-fog capabilities and truer optics.

P80 PLUS (Anti-fog/Carbo Glass® Anti-Scratch) – Applied to our new spherical polycarbonate decentered single lenses (Zoopla), P80Plus is Bollé’s proprietary, maximum protection against lens fogging and scratching.

Quick Release Strap – Easy on. Easy off. The Bolle Quick Release Strap makes getting your goggles on/off your head or helmet easier.

OTH (Over The Helmet) – All Bolle goggles are designed to be compatible with most helmet designs currently on the market.

SOS Prescription Adapters (RX) – Prescription wearers can customize their Bollé goggles with optical Rx adapters that fit inside the goggle

Double Lens with Equalizer – Bolle double lenses create a thermal barrier, but have a superior seal and better optics with Equalizer technology.

100% UV Protection – All of Bollé’s goggle lens protect the wearer 100% from harmful ultraviolet rays (UVA/UVB).

OTG/OTC (Over the glasses/contacts) – The Bolle X700, X500, and X200 goggles are designed to fit over most glasses and contact lenses.

Polarized Lens – Low sun angles and the high reflectivity of snow create the need for polarization, which blocks the horizontal, reflected component of light. Gray lenses, however, offer no contrast for seeing icy patches or terrain features. Bolle combines polarization with a vermillon tint for high contrast perception.

Spherical Lens – Featured in the new Bolle contour goggle the spherical lens offers enhanced vision and superior optics over traditional flat lenses. Unique, sculpted look, reduced fogging with lens further from face.

Equalizer™ – Bolle Equalizer technology uses a breathable, gore all-weather vent to equalize air pressure between the lenses, without introducing moisture. The result is distortion-free vision at any altitude and no fogging.

BOLLE LENS OPTIONS

Vermillon – High contrast. Mostly cloudy/overcast conditions
Phototropic – Light sensitive amber tint that darkens with increasing solar intensity.
Bollé 100 – Amber colored lens that absorbs 100% infrared. Infrared rays contribute heat which accelerates the drying of the eye.
Night Ski – Clear lens for very low light or night skiing.
Citrus – High contrast. Direct sun/bright conditions (combines yellow and amber qualities)
Vermillon Gun Flash – Metallic silver coating applied. Our Vermillion lens reduce glare and enhance visual acuity. Ideal for bright days on the slopes.
Vermillon Polarized – High contrast. Highest glare and reflective conditions.

If you work in an environment where your eyes are potentially at risk of injury, it is very important that you wear proper eye protection. It is also important that eye protection you use is reliable and built to last. Whether you work on a construction site or in a scientific testing lab, your eye safety and protection should be a priority.

Lenses
It goes without saying that the lenses of any pair of safety goggles are its most important feature. Safety goggle lenses need to offer excellent clarity while being resistant to scratching and damage. Even if your safety goggles are made for outdoor use and implement sunglasses style glare reduction, they should not compromise precise vision. If you wear glasses, you can even have safety goggles specially crafted to fit your lens prescription requirements.

Frames

A good pair of safety goggles should have frames that are: 1) lightweight, 2) durable, and 3) comfortable. Safety goggles should not be a distraction by being uncomfortable to wear. It’s vital to your eye and overall safety that your safety goggles fit well. Ill-fitting safety goggles that slip or pinch can be a distracting and dangerous nuisance. If you have to repeatedly adjust your frames you can’t fully focus on your task at hand and this can put you at risk. Frames should also be very durable and able to withstand a good amount of impact from flying debris.
