Ski Goggles

Which Colour of Goggle Lens Should I Choose?

Broadly speaking, darker coloured lenses permit less light, making them ideal for sunny conditions. Conversely, lighter lenses let more light through, which is beneficial on overcast, murky days. Each lens carries a VLT rating (Visual Light Transmission) in percentage terms. A lower VLT% means less light penetration, suitable for sunny weather, whereas a higher VLT% allows more light, perfect for cloudy and snowy days.

Some goggles feature replaceable lenses, enabling you to swap the lens to better match the weather. Within our product range, ski or snowboard goggles may come with a complimentary second lens.

Is It Necessary for Kids to Wear Ski Goggles?

Indeed, it is crucial for kids to wear ski goggles as they offer protection from various weather while enhancing visibility. The lens in junior ski goggles not only blocks harmful UV rays from the sun, but also serves as a barrier against wind and snow. An added advantage is that it keeps your child's face warm.

There are numerous features in kids' snow goggles that can guide you in selecting a suitable model. Key aspects to consider include anti-fog technology, OTG (Over The Glasses) for children who wear spectacles, and interchangeable lenses. An additional lens that can be swapped allows you to have one for bright, sunny weather and another for dim, snowy days. The ideal kids' ski goggles will incorporate a combination of these features, if not all.

Ensuring your children are properly dressed forms another cornerstone of a positive skiing experience. To keep them warm, they should wear thermal clothing as base layers. To view our collection, check out Ski Base Layers.
