Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi there, I am looking for a pair of goggles that will be able to take the day-to-day battering of a season. I don't have a huge budget so am looking for one pair that are good quality and hopefully long lasting. Also what colour lens would you recommend that will do a good all-round job, not expecting perfection in a every light! Thinking Oakleys - maybe the Ambush with a Fire Iridium lens http://uk.oakley.com/en/ambush-snow/product/W0OO7017. I have a small/medium face and will be wearing them with a helmet. TIA for any advice!

Bolle Modulator are favourites on here - ask me after Christmas and I'll let you know how they did

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Another vote for Bolle Modulators, I have both Modulator Citrus Gun (Nova Goggles) and Modulator Vermillion Blue (Gravity Goggles) tint lenses. Both are great in flat light conditions (the Vermillion possibly edging it for me) but the citrus gun is better in full sun, not surprising as it is listed as a Cat 1-3 as opposed the Cat 1-2 for the vermillion blue lens. I have noticed that Bolle are listing some goggles with Modulator Light Control. Not sure if this is a new lens or not.

Thank you so much for all the replies, I went to try them out in a shop yesterday and have bought the Bolle Modulators Citrus Gun with the monarch frame because I have quite a small face. Really good fit and the shop also highly recommended them so fingers crossed!

Mrs MP picked up some Modulators in VT last April, with variable conditions they coped with both flat light and bright sunshine as we went in and out of cloud etc, she has a small face and they worked for her.
