What You Get With Your Oakley Goggles

All the Oakley snow goggles in this guide have been engineered from the ground up to give you the best possible on-mountain performance. Any one of these goggles come standard with the following

• PRIZM-Oakley PRIZM Lens Technology boosts contrast so you can see the edges and bumps in the snow easier, making for a safer and more enjoyable ride.

• Triple-layer foam-This foam layer provides a seal around your face to keep cold air out and prevent chances of fogging. It also adds comfort to the fit so you can stay out on the mountain for hours on end.

• Adjustable silicone-lined strap-You can customize the length of the strap to make it helmet compatible. The silicon lining helps to keep the goggle in place whether you are wearing a helmet or rocking a beanie.

PRIZM Lens Technology Explained

Oakley developed PRIZM lenses to give you the ultimate on-mountain riding experience. Rather than just having a light or dark tint lens, PRIZM enhances contrast to make all of the details in your environment easier to see. The lenses are made with specific dyes that manipulate the light spectrum to filter out 'noisy' colors while simultaneously boosting the colors that you need to see. With a variety of PRIZM lenses, there is one designed for every condition you will encounter on the slopes. We have a complete Oakley PRIZM Snow Lens Guide for an even more in-depth lens review.

*VLT(visible light transmission)- A measurement of the amount of light that passes through the lens to your eyes. A lighter lens will have a higher VLT and a darker lens will have a lower VLT.

*All PRIZM snow lenses have a rose base and are 100% UVA, UVB, and UVC protected and meet ANSI standards for impact protection.

LOW LIGHT LENSES

PRIZM HI-Pink- Lightest tint out of any PRIZM Snow with a VLT(35-40%). Ideal for low light or overcast conditions.

PRIZM Persimmon- Functions similar to HI pink but offers a different aesthetic which is similar to Oakleys original persimmon snow lens.

PRIZM Rose- Also a very ideal low light lens with a VLT(25-28%). This is a great low light lens for people with more sensitive eyes.

MEDIUM LIGHT LENSES

PRIZM Sapphire, Jade, and Torch- All medium tint with VLT(17-20%). The main difference between these is aesthetics.

BRIGHT LIGHT LENSES

PRIZM Black iridium- Best for bright and sunny days VLT(10-13%). Darkest tint available in PRIZM Snow.
