Goggles for skiing and snowboarding are a crucial component of your equipment. You're in trouble if you can't see where you're going! With hundreds of goggles available online, Auski can assist you in locating the snow goggle that best meets your needs and price range. Our top-notch snow goggles will shield your eyes from the elements and enhance your mountain vision.
To make sure we have something for everyone, we provide a wide variety of goggles in both sizes and styles. We promise you'll find the ideal ski goggle that matches your style, fit, and price range with our selection of brands, which includes Oakley, Dragon, Anon, and many more.
Wearing proper goggles will protect your eyes and face while preserving your ability to see clearly in both bright and cloudy conditions. We have a wide variety of high-quality snowboard goggles that adhere to Australia's tightest safety regulations. Depending on their pricing, goggles come with different levels of frame and lens technology. A plain grey lens and no replacement lens alternatives are often included with inexpensive goggles, while contrast-enhancing lenses and frequently a spare lens are included with more expensive models.
Recent advances in goggle lens technology have replaced conventional grey lenses with innovations like Oakley's Prizm, Anon's Perceive, Dragon's Lumalens, and Smith's ChromaPop. Contrast-enhancing technologies don't merely reduce the amount of light that enters the lens; rather, they filter it, boosting contrast and revealing more detail, which is especially visible in low light. These technologies also make lenses more adaptable, so one lens may be used in most situations without the need to change it throughout the day.
The majority of high-end eyewear like Smith, Anon, and Dragon come with an extra lens. The majority of the extra lenses that are provided are low-light-specific, meaning that they perform best in flat or dim lighting. Low-light lenses let in more light, enhancing your surroundings and the snow. If you only use one lens for most situations, make sure its VLT is between 10 and 25 percent. This will prevent the lens from being excessively dark in overcast weather or too brilliant in the light.
People who are learning to snowboard or ski and are anticipating their first day on the slopes frequently ask if they should get snow goggles. Consider the potential expense you could personally pay by not wearing the proper goggles when you're descending the slopes instead of what they will cost you. It doesn't matter if you don't have the greatest ski goggles on the market; your eyes still need to be shielded from UV and UVB radiation. Nobody wants to have snow blindness, therefore it's important to keep your eyes from being exposed to the bright light present on the slopes. All skiers and snowboarders must contend with the sun's glare, but once you purchase ski goggles with dark lens tints, you won't have to worry as much about it. Any seasoned snowboarder or ski pro will tell you how much the top carvers rely on contrast when you ask them whether it's a crucial element to look out for in goggles. Your lenses can help you notice dips in the slope before you ski over them because different colour tints are better suited to varied weather conditions, so it's good obtaining a sense of the circumstances you will probably encounter. The best snow goggles not only have vents that keep them from fogging up, but they also have foam padding that will shield your eyes from snow and wind as you're descending.
Smith, Anon, Giro, Oakley, and Dragon are some of the well-known brands of snow goggles. There is a wide variety of lens shapes, lens colours, and frames available among these well-known brands. While Oakley has a GPS-enabled goggle with a digital readout on the lens, Anon uses magnets in a couple of their models for their lenses and MFI face masks. Dragon also makes transition goggles, but how well they fit your face is what matters most. The right fit will matter more than any feature because if cold air enters through a gap near to your nose, no other features will matter.
Our selection of Oakley goggles are fog-resistant, all-day comfortable, come in a wide range of Prizm lenses. Oakley also produce rimless goggles with excellent peripheral vision. All snow goggles found in-store are offered online in a variety of colours and sizes.
A variety of built-in features, such as lumalens, iridium, red ion, and unisex goggle lenses for all ages, are included in high-quality ski and snowboard goggles. With replacement and backup lenses available, high-quality snow goggles are built to last a lifetime. As Australia's biggest outdoor and adventure retailer, Auski collaborates with top manufacturers to offer products from top manufacturers including Dragon, Oakley, Giro, Smith, and others. To help you obtain the cheapest price on Prizm, Anon M3, Asian-fit goggles, and other fantastic snow goggles, Auski offers Zippay, online sales, gift cards, and much more.

We carry goggles with lenses for every weather situation, no matter when you want to go out including clear lenses, low-light lenses, and highlight lenses. The majority of people who are buying goggles for the first time frequently think that the lens tint is just a pleasant cosmetic element. However, lens tints can have a purpose and can alter how suited your goggles are for various conditions, therefore it's critical to be knowledgeable about the various lens tints. Your goggles' lens tint should enable you to perceive anything from finer colour distinction to greater depth. When there is a lot of light present, such as when there is a lot of snowy terrain that reflects light, specific lens tints are employed to offer these features. Of course, there's a chance you'll also come across dim places.
Goggles can have unique lenses with a specific purpose, just as sunglasses. The most popular choices and their intended uses are given below.
Dual, switchable or interchangeable lens' are very popular with advanced skiers and snowboarders as it means you can change the lens to suit the conditions and you have a spare lens in your ski jacket in case one gets snow in it. Although more expensive than a goggle that comes with only one lens, they can come with a hard case and are much cheaper than buying a single lens goggle + spare lens + hard case.

Take off your ski goggles to inspect the vents, spin them around, and get some cool air in to swiftly defog them if they start to fog up. Use this technique to clean ski goggles, but avoid cleaning the inner lens because you'll remove the anti-fog layer.
