In addition to being equipped with a variety of cutting-edge technologies, GIRO goggles and helmets are attractive for their ease of use and cool design. We spoke to GIRO about their products at JSP SNOW EXPO JAPAN 2024 (held February 13-14, 2024 at Pacifico Yokohama)
The quality of the "VIVID lens" and stylish design will shine in the 2024-2025 season as well
For the 2024-2025 season, GIRO unveiled a solid lineup that showcases the excellent performance and stylish design that only they can offer
A distinctive feature and strength of GIRO goggles is the "VIVID Lens," developed in collaboration with ZEISS, a world authority in the optical field. VIVID's unique feature is that it allows only blue light, which enhances contrast, to enter the lens, blocking harmful UV rays, resulting in extremely accurate vision. This VIVID lens makes it extremely easy to see unevenness in the snow surface. When you ski with a lens that allows for clear vision, your body reacts better, fatigue is reduced, and you feel more relaxed
"Comp" - the highest-end model that brings together GIRO's goggle technology!
The "Comp" is the top-of-the-line model in GIRO's goggle lineup for the 2024-2025 season.
It's a confident creation packed with GIRO's many unique technologies. The cutting-edge "EXV+" (Expansion View Technology) is a technology that widens the field of view by designing it using specialized equipment that reproduces the view through the goggles. It achieves a wide field of view at the same level as what you see with the naked eye. The lens, of course, uses GIRO's proudly presented VIVID toric double lens.
The "Comp" features the "SNAPSHOT Magnetic Lens Replacement System," which allows lenses to be instantly detached from the frame with a single push and replaced using magnets without directly touching the lenses. Two VIVID Infrared lenses are included, one for sunny days and one for cloudy days, so you can carry a spare lens and instantly change lenses to suit any weather condition. It
's very user-friendly, allowing you to enjoy comfortable skiing with clear vision all day long. The "Comp" debuts as a high-end package that includes not only spare lenses but also a dedicated goggle case.
A rich women's collection
GIRO goggles have a particularly extensive lineup for women.
The "Contour RS" retains the lenses and functionality of the popular "Contour" model, but is designed to fit the size of women's faces and heads. Other models include the "Ella" and "Article II," which feature an EXV frameless design and VIVID lenses. They are available in a wide variety of styles with straps featuring stylish graphics and colors that women will love. Another attractive feature is the use of soft face foam, making them very comfortable to wear.
Ultra-lightweight helmet "Taggert Mips" debuts!
A new ultra-lightweight helmet called "Taggert" will be released for the 2024-2025 season. While most helmets weigh around 500g, the Taggert weighs just 410g. Not only is it ultra-lightweight, but it also comes equipped with Mips, ensuring safety and reliability. Mips is a well-known impact dispersion system that keeps the brain safe by displacing the Mips plate inside the helmet when the head is impacted
As you can see, there are no holes for ventilation at the head, but a large structure inside the helmet and a large ventilation function at the back of the head allow air to be expelled to the outside
Despite its simple design, it offers excellent breathability and comfort. It's ultra-lightweight and equipped with Mips technology, making it comfortable to wear. At just 28,000 yen (excluding tax), it's also very cost-effective
