ok heres the problem. i gave away my old goggles this summer as a birthday present to someone. i need new goggles now. im looking at the crowbars, but i dont know which ones will look best with my suit. i have a black jacket with burton gold and green plaid pants... but i don't know whether im going to buy a new suit anytime soon. what colours do you guys suggest would look good with my suit now? and what colours would just look good if i get a new suit?

Well first of all you should NOT choose your goggles because you want them to match your suit. You should first decide which lens you need, because thats by far the most important thing when choosing a goggle.  I bought some white with fire lens crowbars because A) I needed something for sunny days and B) because i have a pair of goggles for low light conditions....But, i personally like white with fire, white with pink, yellow with fire....you cant really go wrong with a white frame. It looks good with anything.

i had vr28 lenses on my old goggles and they were awesome. i rarely go night skiing... i think yellow with fire looks unreal, white is always cool too. would yellow look bad with my current suit though?

Yup, the gold argyle frames would look sick I bet.
But defs choose the lens based on the light conditions.

yea the gold would look good too, i think i like the yellow frames with fire lens better though. they seem a bit hard to come by on ns... id rather find them off someone on ns or ebay or something cheaper because they're stupid expensive on the o site.

yea dude, yellow with fire is actually my second favorite. Especially in your case, where it would look really dope with your outerwear, and like you said....you rarely go night skiing so id say go for yellow with a fire lens, or get the harvest gold with a gold iridium. Yellow and fire if you really want your goggles to pop, harvest gold and gold if you really want something classy.
