A second filter category, and whether it clips on

Replacement goggle lenses, compared

A goggle has one lens and a mountain has several kinds of light, which is the whole reason this shelf exists. The figure that matters is the filter category of the spare: a category 3 lens for glare and a category 1 for a snowing afternoon do not do each other's job, and a skier who owns one goggle and two lenses sees in both. The second thing, and it is the one that sends parcels back, is the fitting. Magnetic lenses come off in gloves and go on in seconds; clip and tab systems are cheaper and slower; and a spare lens fits ONE frame family and not a shape. The corpus shows listings that name the frame — and others that do not, which is a decision to buy a photograph. A photochromic lens sidesteps the whole problem by darkening with light: the corpus shows one stating a range of S1 to S4, though only one of the seven compared here mentions photochromic options at all, which is a claim to cover almost the whole scale with one piece of glass, and they cost about what two fixed lenses cost. Then the coatings: an anti-fog treatment on the inner face, a mirror or revo finish on the outer, and a polarising layer that cuts glare off wet snow and makes ice harder to read. Whether a spare is included with the goggle is worth checking before buying one at all — the corpus has the same model listed twice, « ohne Wechselglas » at 80 € and « inkl. Wechselglas » at 110 €, which sets the honest price of a spare at 30 €. We compare fits, filter category, lens construction, fitting system, photochromic, coatings and case included.
