Clearer, wider vision, more comfortable fit, and more stylish... Goggles are constantly evolving in lens technology and design. The difference in "vision" depending on the function and lens has a major impact not only on the quality and enjoyment of your skiing, but also on your safety on the snowy mountains, so choosing goggles can be tricky. That's where pro shops can come in handy. They combine their extensive knowledge and user feedback to offer persuasive advice that compares and evaluates products from multiple angles. Here we introduce some excellent goggles that are highly rated by discerning pro shop staff for the 2023-2024 season

¥60,500

LENS
CP Sun Black

The combination of a lens shape that extends downwards and a ChromaPop lens that is fog-resistant and provides a clear view of the snow surface provides a wide, clear field of view not found in other goggles. The lenses are magnetically replaced, making it easy to open and close the chest zipper and switch bindings while wearing the goggles, and it's easy to adapt to sudden changes in weather. Recommended for those who primarily ski in the backcountry

Connor
Color: Black-RIG Topaz (all 4 colors)
¥38,500

The impact-resistant, 2.8mm thick toric sculpted spherical lens protects your face in the event of an accident while ensuring optimal visibility. While slightly smaller in size than the Durden wide-frame goggles released in 2022-2023, the new frameless design provides a wider field of view than the Durden, allowing you to focus on riding. The sleek design makes it easy to coordinate with other items, making it a recommended choice

SWANS|OUTBACK
High-performance goggles with flat lenses for a comfortable fit

OUTBACK-MDH-CU-LP SMNV
Visible light transmittance: 17-35%
¥33,000
◆Official website/ https://www.swans.co.jp
For Asian users, whose faces tend to be less contoured, the release of these high-performance goggles with flat lenses that fit perfectly is nothing but good news. What's more, like the RIDGELINE and ROVO, these goggles are great because they can eliminate moisture from inside the goggles with a single action. With a wide variety of lens patterns, we think this model will be able to provide goggles that meet the needs of a wide range of users!

DRAGON|PXV
Japan fit model that ensures a wider and clearer field of view than the human eye

PXV
Lens color:LUMALENS J.GOLD ION
¥29,150
The frame, designed to wrap around the sides of the face, and the hybrid spherical and flat "PANOTECH LENS" ensure a wider and clearer field of view than the average person. Naturally, it's a Japan Fit model tailored to the Japanese skeletal structure. The highly popular JAPAN LUMALENS, with its high clarity, is available in five colors: red, gold, green, blue, and silver, plus a photochromic light rose, for a total of six colors. They're all great, so be sure to try them on before purchasing to decide.
Thanks to the Armor Vent, which covers the ventilation at the top of the frame, and the durable lens, these goggles are likely to last longer than other companies' goggles. We also recommend the "R1," a slightly smaller model that's popular with women.
