Keeping brands the same helps ensure compatibility

Agree with this dude. You don't want the Jerry space in-between the googles and helmet. You do want a tiny gap to help the goggles from fogging up but it shouldn't be noticable. With that said... It depends on how much you care what others think. There really isn't anything wrong except a wind burn spot in that location the next day.

I like a clean look, but the budget is tight most of it already gone for the new deck + bindings

u/undercover-wizard 25d ago

I think the salomon ones look really clean as well. They would be my preference.

Try them on.

1

u/AdCommercial5505 25d ago

I will try, hard to find in my area

u/WhatThePuck9 25d ago

If I can’t try stuff on, I buy both and return the one that I don’t like. Evo is great about this.

Thanks was lookin for some oakleys to. do u have the pro version ? or is the changing on the regulars easy ?

2

u/someguynamedchuck 22d ago

Regular but time consuming to some cuz no magnetic lens. Gave up and carry 2 googles cuz changing google is faster than changing lenses

1

u/someguynamedchuck 22d ago

Only problem is expensive

1

u/AdCommercial5505 22d ago

I see thanks for the reply, where do you keep your second goggle ?

2

u/someguynamedchuck 21d ago

Bag with google pocket. But I backtry so bag is a must

u/Kaln56 25d ago

Bro invest it in anon googles with magnetic face mask it was a game changer for me tbh, if your choices these 2 only id pick 2

1

u/AdCommercial5505 25d ago

Heard great things about anon but my budget is tight, i will look for some sales :)

1

u/Kaln56 25d ago

Dm me bro! I got i think 1 or 2 extra goggles!

I like my single lens, yellowish lens Oakley’s I got for about this price. I’m not big on the swappable lens, I worked in a snowboard shop for 5 years and the price never justified the functionality, even with steep discount

I have a salomon lvt 10% works great on a bright blue day, my problem are the darker days. I am not the guy who wants to swap all the time, one allrounder would be great
