Glasses with goggles

kimwin · Dec 24, 2011

Hi all ;-) I'm looking to buy my hubby a new pair of goggles but he wears glasses. So i'm looking for any info on what brand of goggles would fit and work the best over his glasses ??

Have a very merry christmas and all the best for 2012.

I wear glasses with my googles. Currently i have used oakely A-frames and 509 Aviators. Both are great google and would recommend them. The key to this setup is to have a frame (glasses) that is not wide. My regular day to day glasses i wear around are very wide and are a designer setup, not ideal. I purchased a set of smaller frames that fit my head tightly with smaller lenses in them. They will fit inside my googles, just a set of cheapies.

When I am doing powersports activities I switch over to my contacts,.. but even then I hate it. I have a set of Scott goggles that I use.

I personally wear glasses. And i hate the fact that scott has dropped the ball IMO becasue they havnt updated there otg (over the glasses) goggles for like 10years. I wear scott hustle goggles, Smith makes some decent otg goggles. Also the 509's work well, the thing that i've found is alot of regualr goggles will work for glasses but some of the time you have to trim the foam alittle bit right where the arms for the glasses fit into the goggles. Like others have said best to try the goggles and see if the glasses will fit with or without some minor foam trimming, because there is such a wide range of glasses sizes. Hope this helps.

I also wear glasses and I got my first pair of googles 3yrs ago the glasses clip inside the googles and they work very well. Check with your eye doctor and see what they have because thats wear I got them from,they are expensive but they work very well at about 350 per pair.I had to replace a pair this year because they broke , all I had to do is replace the clip on glasses on the inside the googles and it only cost 90 dollars, The glasses are plastic and just clip on the inside of the googles and u can keep the googles and change the glasses when ever u need too. I think the googles came from sweden, thats what I was told so good luck and merry xmas.

I just bought the Oura's from Habervision with the Eliminator fan in them. Haven't tested them yet for fogging but they are definitely wide enough to fit over any frame. Jan from Trax2treadz helped me a lot making the choice and I would highly recommend dealing with her.

i wear glasses and usually just took them off hence the name CRASH. i got a pair of scott OTG goggles with the habervision fan installed at a sled shop. have been great so far, will steam up if dropped in snow but clear up in a short while. i recommend something similar.

Smith has been making an OTG with fan in it for years, Smith turbofan. works well.Smith Turbo Fan Goggles Clear the Fog
