These goggles are top of the quality goggles, I guess they are coming up with a new lineup of ski goggles. Great styles, more than 50% off of last years price.

I hope you were kidding about this. Spy is one of the biggest names in snoboard goggles. No, you don't spy on other people. The goggles look awesome. I'd buy one only if I didn't have one already.

Good find. I usually think about it the day before I start skiing, and of course, there are no good finds, then.

I'll add my recommendation for these goggles. I bought SPY sunglasses almost 6 years ago when they were still a new company and I haven't worn anything else since. (speaking of - any deals on SPY glasses would be great)

I have some X-Ray vision goggles for ya... I got them when I was eight, spent a whole day trying to see through womens clothes. Screwed my vision too, now all I see is one eye red and one eye green. Or was that the 3-D glasses I got when Jaws 3 was released....

I picked up a pair of Spy Blizzards for $40 at Zumies a little while ago, not sure if they are still on sale. This is a great deal though. I might pick up a spare pair.

spy ones are usually good ones. I believe they are very popular among teens for they have more designs geared towards young people, but they also have regular black goggles that looks awesome. i'd say get the spy blizzard. I don't think this deal is as popular because i'm picturing a lot of fat geeks sitting at the computer who would never ski or snowboard. i'm just joking. well, enjoy.

Curiously, how many people wear these goggles with glasses on? I've found quite a few goggles that don't fit well over my glasses, and I don't want to drop $50 on these Blizzards if they don't fit.

I need to replace my current goggles because they were fogging up last season.

Got an email from Overstock today saying that the Spy Goggles are now 10% off the Overstock price.

finally decided to open this thread thinking 'what the hell do spy goggles have to with winter?' might want to change the title b/c the bolles are pretty nice goggles too, but great find. i cant stand skiing with goggles, but im tempted to pick one up for that price!

I have a pair of Dragon goggles that I got last season. They've done really well. 2 tips: Get vented goggles to keep them from fogging up and be sure to keep them on your face. When you stop and put the goggles on your head, heat from your hair will cause the goggles to fog up. You're best off to actually wear the goggles in the store too if you can to see what feels good one your face. Most of these all use foam so they'll get a good seal and be pretty comfy. I usually try to stick with amber tinted lenses to cut more glare.

thanks. so basically it is a bad idea to buy a pair over the internet unless you know the fit. (especially with a narrowish face)

I thought it was a rather amusing comment... but i also wondered if it is bad to ski/snowboard in contacts? If i am going to take a friend who has never been who wears contacts, should i tell her she needs glasses?
