I was thinking about wearing sunglasses instead of goggles. I was looking at the dragon mountaineerx. Have any of you guys used them?

So you're going to choose fashion over function? I bet you will have your jacket unzipped while it's snowing out too.

Those look pretty cool. I have the Julbo tensing and it's my favorite eye wear for skiing. (less expensive than those Dragons). It's always a good day when the conditions are right for glacier glasses.

Hey, I do not have experience of using these sunglasses. But I generally buy wholesale sunglasses from some recommended sites. A year ago I was searching Online store of sunglasses, Then I came to know about Fashion Sunglasses Distributors are selling sunglasses in bulk at cheap.

I wear glacier glasses (Electric Stacker) occasionally in the spring. They're not a great substitute for goggles but they have there place. If it's super warm out and you don't want to wear a beanie/helmet then glasses are a good choice. Also, they're great for touring because goggles tend to fog up on the ascent. Goggles are just so much better, though.

I used the mountaineerX for what it was designed for (you know, touring in sunny conditions) and I would never use it skiing. The attachments on the side do not keep wind out, it's only for sun. Just wear goggles...

I rock my Oakley eyeshades (I call them my playball shades) more than goggles. FTB fuck the world. I skied in them at least 70 days last season looking to break it that this year.
