Designed for wide faces, the Cyrius-X from Julbo uses a Minimalist Frame that extends the field of vision. Air Flow ventilation helps reduce fogging, while the triple-density foam and the thermoformed nose foam provide lasting comfort under a helmet. Depending on the version, you’ll find Reactiv photochromic lenses with different category ranges or Spectron lenses, with dedicated coatings to preserve clear visibility in the mountains.

Oakley Line Miner Pro M & Line Miner Pro L

These goggles come with two Prizm lenses. Lens changes are very quick thanks to the magnetic Switchlock system. They feature Prizm technology, which boosts contrast and enhances colours, as well as HDO technology (High Definition Optics), giving Oakley lenses outstanding clarity! The cylindrical lens gives these goggles a distinctive look while providing a panoramic field of view. The frame features triple-density foam, a ventilation system around the lens, and a silicone-backed strap for better grip on helmets. This model is available in two sizes: Large and Medium, and is compatible with prescription glasses (OTG Friendly).

In recent seasons, we’ve already featured the Flight Deck M and L, true bestsellers from Oakley with a design inspired by fighter pilot visors. This year, Oakley is back with a refined version, the Flight Deck Pro, which keeps all the strengths of the iconic model while adding a major upgrade: the mechanical lens-change system has become magnetic. It features a bio-resin frame, triple-density foam and a silicone-backed strap for a perfect fit. The magnetic Switchlock system allows you to adapt your vision in a single motion, and each pair of goggles comes with two Prizm lenses to optimise contrast and colour according to the light conditions. This model is still available in two sizes, M and L, to suit all face shapes and accommodate wearers of prescription glasses (OTG Friendly).

The Aksium 2.0 (and its more compact 2.0 S version) from Salomon is positioned as versatile entry-level to mid-range ski goggles, offering optimum comfort and a field of vision well suited to changing conditions at the resort. This model provides a wide field of viewand features a double-slide strap for easy adjustment. It also has very soft dual-density foam and a siliconised strap for reliable retention over a helmet or beanie. The Aksium 2.0 is OTG-compatible (Over The Glasses) for glasses wearers. The 2.0 S version has a reduced size, while retaining the essential comfort and Multilayer technology on some versions.

The Salomon Radium range is among the very best on the market. With spherical lenses, they deliver a wide field of vision. The Radium Prime is also fitted with a magnetic lens-change system that is quick and easy to use, while the lens on the Radium Pro (and Radium Pro S) is changed mechanically. The Radium Prime is the most advanced pair of goggles in the range: magnetic lens change, two lenses, Sigma technology, photochromic lens and anti-fog coating. The Radium Pro is sold with one or two lenses, with several options available (photochromic, Sigma). The Radium model is sold with a single lens, either in a photochromic version or a Sigma version. The Radium range is compatible with wearing prescription glasses (OTG), features triple-density foam and a silicone strap. The Radium Prime and Pro offer Custom ID Fit, providing a personalised fit. The Radium Pro is available in two sizes: Radium Pro and Radium Pro S.

The S/View 3 refreshes a Salomon best-seller with a minimalist profile, a wide field of view and comfort designed to last right through the day. The lenses available feature an anti-fog coating and effective ventilation; some versions use a Multilayer lens that reduces eye fatigue and delivers optimum visual comfort, while others integrate photochromic technology. OTG compatibility and double-density foam complete an accessible, high-performing pair of goggles.

The 4D Mag range from Smith is truly unique! It features the only pair of goggles on the market to offer downward peripheral vision thanks to BirdsEye technology. You can also adapt your vision to the light conditions thanks to a magnetic lens change, secured by side clips. The entire range features an effective 5X anti-fog coating and TLT technology, delivering clear, accurate vision. In addition, you get ChromaPop technology, which enhances contrast and colour. The 4D Mag goggles are comfortable: triple-layer DriWix foam, a silicone-backed strap for better helmet grip, and an AirEvac ventilation system to help prevent fogging inside the goggles. You have three sizes to choose from: 4D Mag S, 4D Mag, and 4D Mag XL.

Like its counterpart, the 4D Mag, this range is also available in three sizes: I/O Mag S, I/O Mag and I/O Mag XL. Featuring a spherical Carbonic-X lens, this pair of goggles offers a wide field of vision for better anticipation of obstacles and, quite simply, greater enjoyment of the scenery. Interchangeable, each pair of goggles is supplied with two lenses, which can be removed thanks to strategically placed magnets around the frame. ChromaPop technology enhances contrast and colours, while TLT technology delivers crystal-clear vision. The Responsive Fit frame adapts to the shape of your face, offering complete comfort! The QuickFit silicone strap, triple-layer DriWix foam and ventilation system complete the I/O Mag.

Julbo Lightyear & Lightyear OTG

The Lightyear offers an exceptionally wide field of vision. It features highly effective ventilation, thanks to the AirFlow system and also to SuperFlow Pro technology, which involves moving the lens forward to encourage airflow. The major advantage of these goggles lies in the lens, which incorporates Reactiv Photochromic technology, bringing numerous benefits: outstanding optical quality, above-average photochromic responsiveness and impressive impact resistance thanks to a Trivex construction. These goggles are also available in an OTG version for glasses wearers.

These goggles stand out for their construction incorporating recycled materials, as well as for their many assets: SuperFlow Pro, AirFlow ventilation system, anti-fog coating on the inner surface and an exceptionally wide field of vision. They feature the renowned Reactiv technology for photochromic lenses, as well as Spectron lenses in categories 1, 2 or 3. The cylindrical lens delivers a clean, much-loved look. Triple-layer foam and the wide silicone-backed strap make the Launcher a high-quality pair of goggles that is comfortable and high performing!
