At the risk of not being #enduro… why goggles? I saw a few people rocking them at the last two #enduros I rode but I can't see how they're any improvement on a decent pair of riding glasses. I don't even enjoy wearing goggles when I ride DH. Between fogging and the reduced peripheral vision it just seems like more of a hassle.

You rocking that one on the France trip OhMega?

Nah. But those on a German Helmet are Deff on my to get list. I'm taking Oakley Mayhems. I've got loads of replacement lenses so those are my goggs for the trip.

Haha. Was just joking. They are black though? Will work perfectly with the rest of your black on black on black bike and outfit? ;)

I thought #ENDURO Racers rolled with these #HIPSTER goggles!

 

You do realise that in some circles you could have 7 kinds of shyte kicked out of you for using those two in the same sentence.... ;)

Because a stick in the eyeball at 50kmh sucks

 

That's a lot of hassle for a very remote scenario isn't it? If it's a style thing then I get it but it just seems a lot to sacrifice in terms of comfort for not that much more protection than glasses.

The comfort isn't an issue once you get used to them. Much like the first few times wearing sunnies is a bit strange.

 

They offer more protection than sunnies (way more) and don't fog up if you keep on moving. Saying that, some sunnies also fog up when you stop riding so it's a cross product issue.

 

But... they're not for everyone.

Decent goggles are way cheaper than decent sunnies

Not that I wear goggles on enduro rides, but this is the 1st thread I could find dedicated to goggles...

 

IF there is one company that understand my love for 'happy colours' it is the folk of 100%.

I dont buy stuff easily, but if the price colours are right it keeps me on the edge of my seat till I press the 'buy' button...

 

These are SO nice! (All of them with the 'happy colours'...keep scrolling down on the page!) http://www.ride100percent.com/mountainbike/goggles/
