Best Ski Goggles for Flat light

I prefer an clear, or almost clear (light smoke) lens for flat light. Yellow works OKish, but the Persimmon doesn't work for me.

Wickers, Bolle have a good reputation, which model/lens type/Category are they?

No idea they were a present I'll have to do some investigation :evil:

Wickers, this page might help you to identify which lens you have. It gives details of the light transmission values for all the different Bolle lens types.

Can't seem to track down the lens type, the best place for them is the bin :lol:

I'll have a look when I'm in Livigno in 14 days time, duty free and all that :wink:

At least you'll be able to try the Lens against the light, and see how they look, before handing over the money!

I seem to be doing a lot of agreeing with Bandit today! :lol:

I got some of these myself however daughter no2 couldn't find hers and so borrowed mine. She thought they were great but the brown frame didn't go with her pink helmet. Presumably that's why they were £25 on ebay.

Personally I tend to avoid wearing the goggles as much as possible - I've got some persimmon lenses for my sunnies for when the light's poor.
