Can anyone recommend a fitter that has the same skill an diligence in Tignes?

Oakley monster dug sunglasses
Boot warmers

What is the long grey tue like structure going up the hill through te middle of the first two photos?. Don't remember it from three years ago. Don't think it was there.

Well I went out this morning and tried on a few pairs of Oakleys. Tried flak Jackets (inc. the XLJ), Straight Jackets. But in the end I went for a pair of Monster Dogs. They seemed to fit a look better on me (so the wife said), and bigger wrap around lens. Went for the iridium lens rather than polarised.
Probably paid a bit more than on line, but the shop threw in a hard case (not Oakley, but that doesnt matter as it fits perfectly). And the shop owner spent a lot of time with me patiently waiting whilst I couldnt make my mind up - so dony mind paying for the service.

Thanks for all your help.

And the snow to Tignes (heading there in late January).
Just need to pluck up the courage (or stupidity) to try the Face!

The Tunnel mentioned in an earlier post - is this at VDI?

Hi,
Not sure if I should have started a new thread or not, but this is quite a specific question.
I a getting conflicting advise on whether polarised or normal lenses are better for skiing?
Any advice?

Thanks.
Which ones do you use? Do you use a helmet?

I suspect this has been asked before, but I know there are new products onto the market all the time.
I am looking for recommendations for a pair of good sunglasses for skiing. It would be good if they were usable for the summer as well.
I quite like Oakleys and was looking at the solid jackets.
Anyone have these? Wind is one of the most important factors and they have to fit under my helmet. Ps I want fully framed lenses.
Or any other recommendations?
