Which Goggle?

Well I sold my other goggles to a friend so I'm gonna buy some new ones.

Goggles I'm considering:
Dragon goggles, probably the nfx
Spy optics, probably platoons

I had the electric egb2 and I liked everything about them except for the fact that it was extremely hard and time consuming for lens swaps.

I'd like to spend less than $100.

Also I have something to add. I've looked at dragon apx and apxs as well. Apxs are just smaller than apx. How much smaller?

I really like my apx from dragon. They are really comfortable and the nike editions look sick. The only problem you might encounter with them is they may be too big. they also come with 1 lens for foggy days and one for sunny days so that is pretty useful.

The lens? The lenses should hold up to rain since they are snow goggles. What exactly happened?

I usually wear a large helmet with a beanie underneath. When i wear baseball snapbacks, i usually wear them with no open holes left. Why dont you try them on first? thats the best thing to do. Maybe you mighy like other models that fit your face better. I think goggle sizing relates better to face size/width rather than head size. Good luck!

If you want to wear the apx without a balaclave i'd go for the s version , since they actually are quite huge ! But with balaclave they look awesome , also mine fog quite a lot but are very comfortable

I have a pair of oakleys and they are without a doubt the best goggle concerning looks and and vision. They never fog up on me and I can easily wear then on the inside of my hemlet
