Hey people!

I've been skiing for around 10 years now and have had Oakley goggles for about 7 of those years, various models. Have been looking at getting some new goggles and really vibing the Dragon and Anon goggles. Just wondered if was worth varying from the ever steady line of Oakley goggles. I mean, the others are pretty pricey too but are they worth it? Any advice would be steller.

Also, looking at trying to get some Grenade mitts but can hardly find any dealers in the UK with the mitts i want. Don't know whether it just isn't the time to be thinking about this stuff now but can't really get away from the skiing stash mind. Once again, any advice or recommendations would be cool.

Peace!

The rest IMO are Smith, I don't think Dragon and Anon even come in to it beyond being a fashion product.

If I move away from Oakley in the near future I will be moving to Smith, no where else.

Nonsense, tartan pants and a green Skunkfunk hoodie with a pair of Porsche Design sunglasses is what all the cool kids are wearing this season.

Scott goggles have a sound reputation, as do Sinner. Both worth looking at for the clarity of the lenses. Oakley have such a huge range though, there is bound to be something that you like. Sorry, never heard of Grenade Mitts, I use Hestra gloves personally.
