Whistler’s rooms are soon to be packed with ski and snowboarding enthusiasts eager to hit the slopes. Before they do, however, they’ll want to consider what gear will make their ski trip more enjoyable and hassle free. Oakley goggles are undoubtedly the best you can get for any slope, from bunny hills to black diamonds.

Oakley continually reinvents the wheel when it comes to eyewear. They question the very basic norms of design and rethink them to meet the criteria for each sport. Because of the extensive R&D Oakley has put into designing the best possible gear for each season and sport, the end product may cost a bit more than other brands. Going with Oakley, however, is worth the extra fee, when you know you have the best science can offer strapped to your face as you go catapulting down the slopes this winter.

Scratch resistant, water-proof, fog-proof, and designed for maximum coverage and visual span, you’ll find that Oakley goggles have more to offer than just a shield for cold wind and snow. The tinting applied to Oakley’s lenses is as scientifically important as the aerodynamic shape itself. Yellow and orange tinting increases visual contrast, making ice patches or rock lumps under the snow easily visible. You’ll find that with these tinting shades you’ll pick up on things in the snow quicker and easier, giving you more time to react.

Oakley now designs goggles with or without the wrap-around strap. For extreme skiers and snowboarders, the strap is recommended, while cross-country skiers and bunny slope enthusiasts can gear up with the cooler looking (and more versatile) goggles without straps. Meanwhile, the strap versions are now cooler than ever with great designs, patterns and colors to match any outdoor winter outfit.
