Bolle Ski Goggles performance has been developed on the ski slopes. The design and performance features of Bolle ski goggles are superior in the industry and are the preferred brand by many of the U.S Ski and Snowboard team members.
FLOW-TECH ™VENTING
Bolle designs its ski goggles to control and optimize the flow of air over the inside of the lens to reduce fogging. Venting ports are located to enhance design and control air flow without clogging with snow.
P80 (ANTI-FOG COATING)
Bolle applies P80 to the inside of our cylindrical double lenses. Combined with thermal insulation of the double lens and Equalizer technology, it provides superior anti-fog capabilities and truer optics.
P80 PLUS (ANTI-FOG/CARBO GLASS® ANTI-SCRATCH)
Applied to our new spherical polycarbonate decentered single lenses (Zoopla), P80Plus is Bolle’s proprietary, maximum protection against lens fogging and scratching.
DOUBLE LENS WITH EQUALIZER ™
Bolle double lenses create a thermal barrier, but have a superior seal and better optics with Equalizer technology.
QUICK RELEASE STRAP
Easy on. Easy off. The Bolle Quick Release Strap makes getting your Bolle ski goggles on/off your head or helmet easier.
OTH (OVER THE HELMET)
Bolle ski goggles are designed to be compatible with most helmet designs currently on the market.
SOS PRESCRIPTION ADAPTERS (RX)

100% UV PROTECTION
All of Bolle’s ski goggle lenses protect the wearer 100% from harmful ultraviolet rays (UVA/UVB).
EQUALIZER
Bolle Equalizer technology uses a breathable, gore all-weather vent equalizes air pressure between the lenses without introducing moisture. The result is distortion-free vision at any altitude with no fogging.
SPHERICAL LENS
Featured in the new Bolle Contour goggle, the spherical lens offers enhanced vision and superior optics over traditional FLA lenses. Unique sculpted look. Reduced fogging with lens further from the face.
Corrective Vision
For those who require corrected vision, the normal sunglass and goggle rules may not apply. Bollé offers a variety of products and tips for those with corrective vision needs. The Bolle Sport Optical System is for the eye glass wearer who desires the function and look of a sport sunglass.
Sport Optical System
This is a sleek, wrap around, multi-sport family of shields with a unique prescription capability. A removable adapter fits neatly behind the shield lens and accommodates an optical prescription from +3.00D to -6.00D.
The Sport Optical System includes an extra plain nose piece so the user can either use the optical insert or a plain nosepiece if they want to wear contact lenses with the product. With goggles if glasses are worn, we are introducing an extra set of lenses into the equation. If contacts are worn, we may have to increase or decrease the amount of ventilation. Following are some tips that may be some help to you.
Bolle goggles over glasses
Bolle offers the X9 in the Goggle Collection that feature side cut outs in the foam to accommodate eyewear temples. The X9 features a super over the glass lens that protrudes out from the goggle frame and allows a wide variety of frame sizes to fit comfortably behind the goggle. Try to use polycarbonate in your glasses as opposed to glass. In its natural state polycarbonate is more fog resistant than glass.
Use nylon frames as opposed to metal. A cold metal frame can cause a cold lens, place this in a warm goggle and you have a good possibility of fogging.
Put your goggles on just prior to leaving the lodge, this will keep the lenses from getting cold. Putting cold lenses in a warm goggle can cause fogging. It's best to keep everything at the same temperature. Ventilation is critical to fog free vision. Make sure to check your goggle vents periodically to make sure snow is not building up and blocking ventilation. Goggles vent by drawing air in the top vent and out the bottom vent. Anything blocking the top or bottom vents can prevent this air flow.
Bolle offers optical inserts in several models in the Goggle Collection. Your prescription can be put into the insert and then it is easily fit in behind the goggle lens. Click to view Bolle Ski Goggles compatible with an Rx adapter.
Bolle goggles over contact lenses
Here are some tips to help contact lens wearers get the most benefit from your goggles when wearing contact lenses.
Wear your goggles as much as possible. The heat and perspiration generated by your body creates a nice humid environment that will keep your lenses moist. Removing your goggles exposes them to cold, dry air.
Eye Drops. If you still have problems with your lenses drying, try putting drops in at the top of the run, this will usually keep enough moisture in your lens to make it to the bottom.
Blink. Sounds simple but most people stare for long periods of time when they ski, their concentration being so intense. If you blink occasionally, you can help your eyes keep your lenses moist.
