What do you mean? The goggles that you like, that fit your head/face/helmet, the goggles that are within your price range? Can you narrow it down a bit and ask opinions on specific goggles?

I personally use Deft optics out of Idaho. They are pretty cheap and a good bang for your buck. If your not feeling that smith is good too I mean its really a personally preference tho anything that you like and fits your face should do you wonders.

Plenty of good goggles out there right now such as the nfx and x2 series from dragon or the fall line and flight deck from oakley.
Those are only a couple suggestions in the hugeeeee amount of goggles today
But you really need to narrow your search down as said above,price point,colour,interchangeable system?

Bruh, you are killing us right now. Don't buy goggles because they are what everyone else wears, buy ones the suits your needs. Do you need goggles for flat light? Goggles for sunny days? Goggles for night skiing? Do you wear a helmet? Do you want goggles that are made to fit with your helmet. Do you need goggles that fit over your glasses? Do you have a weird shaped head and need a specific fit of goggles? Everyone is going to give you a different answer if you don't be more specific...

(Sorry NS my age is starting to show and am tired of seeing posts similar to this where some kid wants the "coolest" of whatever and could care less if the equipment actually works or not.)
