What goggles can have the lens easily removed and replaced with another?

Practically any google, but go with Smith or Scott for sure



If your monkey was misbehaving, would you spank it?

I have last years Sundance goggles by Smith. Does that have a replacable lens? It doesn't seem like it, but is there something I should look for?

on the nose part of the frame take it from the front and sort of twist it down. If you hear a little click or pop. Or you can see a notch in the lens then they're removable. If you hear a crack you know you've gone too far.

It is removable. How much do replacement lenses cost? Would red color lenses work well for foggy situations? What about overcast days?

I have some glasses that I chang the lenses in if the conditions need it. I usually just switch between normal goggles and then light enhancing yellow mountain biking glasses.

anon has a goggle coming out next year where the lens is attached with magnets.  easiest lens change there is hands down.  I only saw a prototype but there should be production samples at SIA this week.
