I tried to ski with my contact lenses, but it sucked, so I have to buy some ski goggles who actually fits with my glasses. I tried oakley tanner hall pro model, electric old model with the bandana, smiths..
If some of you guys knows a brand or a specific model who will probably fits with my vision glasses, while being good looking, it would be nice. + K for goodfellas whos trying to help me, and please, oh please, don't call the f***** searchbar thing, I did and this is what I got:

yo dude, i ride with contacts, you cant ride with glasses OVER contacts, just cant be done. youre going to have to get some pretty big goggles ( eg2s  or something ) to fit with glasses. but my recommendation would be to just try to make the contacts work..

I don't see how its tooooo hard. Maybe you have big glasses. Anyways, a lot of pairs have a lot of room, just look around. I'm sorry, but I don't know any off the top of my head. But, if you had the money to buy expensive contacts, why would you buy new goggles, not use contacts and risk breaking your glasses somehow?

i had the same problem a couple years ago, and i still ride with my prescription glasses.  ive found the EG2s are the best goggle for it, and its the only goggle ive owned the last couple years specifically for my glasses situation. they are awesome. they dont squeeze my glasses, and they arent a pain to put on, just slip right over them.

go try on the eg2, hopefully they'll work for you.

I've worn Crowbars with my glasses underneath before.
It's uncomfortable, but possible.

ive had this problem since i got cool glasses (big) haha. i ride with electric eg1s and they do alright. you want to look for a "larger fit" witha flexible frame. the most important thing is to keep your glasses regulated or theyll fog up. i need to try some contacts, its real annoying bailing in powder and coming up with snow in , and around your eyes, glasses and goggles. even worse is the ride down a sketch tree run not being able to see.

seems like some companies make an OTG series, stands for Over The Glasses, or something similar

my boyfriend's done the three eye thing for years; he hates his contacts too.  I think the one he was most successful with were some Anon figments.  And he rocks some pretty square framed glasses.

I've never had a problem with my contacts. But I have forgotten them and my Crowbars worked decently over my glasses.
