Personally I think those hardware store safety glasses look pretty good, but I also don’t want to look like an idiot. I ski mostly at night, and I think googles look pretty dumb.

I love the clears they never fail. Got some thin rope and a pair at Ace for 7 bucks and drilled holes so I can wear them around my neck. Looks hilarious but really good for cloudy spring days. It's become a running joke between all my friends I ski with to wear them.

I hated on safety glasses at first, but I would rather wear them then goggle 90% of the time. Dont restrict peripherals at all.

Idk I would say that goggles look worse in almost every scenario than some good glasses or just wearing nothing

We buy 3m and uvex safety glasses at work in bulk so those are my go to if it's warm and I'm night skiing or it's raining really hard and I want something for when I'm bombing down to the park or something. If I'm taking chair laps I'll just wear goggles with clear lenses but they're nice for the days that I wanna hike and take laps since I can just put them in my pocket and not worry about messing them up or leaving them somewhere and having them stolen.

I personally rock pit vipes as BSI protection but also have a few pairs of BSI glasses.

Goggles are essential in the rockies, I thought I could go without once, froze both retinas. My father comes downstairs every night to tuck me into bed and usually I close my eyes for his playtime, now I'm forced to watch.
