'25-26 Brand Spotlight and Lineup Topics
DAKINE bags are loved all over the world. They combine functionality and ease of use with a fashionable sensibility, and are characterized by their wide range of uses, covering everything from everyday use in town to outdoor activities. They are also popular among snowboarders in the snow world, and DAKINE bags and gloves are always attracting attention as trendsetters. Let's take a look at some of DAKINE's noteworthy models for the 2025-2026 season
Following last season's helmet, this season the DAKINE goggles have been released!
In the 2024-2025 season, DAKINE finally released its first ever helmet, which caused a huge stir. Following on from last season, DAKIN will release its first goggles in the 2025-2026 season. This is big news! You can almost hear the voices saying, "We've been waiting for this!" And that's because the release of this season's goggles was a response to enthusiastic requests from the field
After the release of the helmets last season, the US headquarters received numerous requests from users and shops saying, "We want goggles that perfectly match the DAKINE helmets." This was the deciding factor. In order to meet the expectations of fans, and as is the natural progression of the brand, the development of the goggles was carried out quickly
"Next-generation goggles" born from a sustainable philosophy
DAKINE has always upheld the development philosophy of "RESPECTFUL PRODUCT." As a brand that supports riders who play and live with nature, we believe that our equipment should have a minimal environmental impact
The new goggles also use plant-derived bio-based materials for the frame and face form, and recycled materials are used for the straps, adjustment parts, and even the storage pouch, demonstrating a sustainable approach down to the smallest details
No compromises on lenses
DAKINE is committed to environmental friendliness while also "not compromising on performance." They have developed their own "High Contrast Optics," a cutting-edge high-contrast lens that allows you to see the terrain clearly
The technology precisely controls the wavelengths of light, precisely controlling the three primary colors of light - red, green, and blue - to clearly display contrast and color, clearly showing the unevenness of the snow surface and changes in the slope.In addition, a powerful anti-fog coating is applied to prevent fogging even during long rides, and the ventilation design ensures natural airflow.As a result, you can always maintain clear visibility
It goes without saying that it fits seamlessly with the helmet, and DAKINE has made it possible to provide the firmness around the head that users have been hoping for
The lineup consists of three models
Three models were announced, each with a different price range. DAKINE is particular about using plant-derived materials for each part of each model. They meet American and European safety standards, and are guaranteed to be reliable. And yet, they offer excellent value for money, with the top-of-the-line model, the "DOMAIN SNOW GOGGLE PLUS," costing 35,200 yen, and the most affordable model, the "VENUE SNOW GOGGLE," costing 14,300 yen
