Each year, skiers and riders invariably ask, "How can we go bigger, higher, faster?" Our line of goggles will provide superior visibility to help your performance as you take each turn and jump, transcending into pure joy. Precision design and the best materials make this the ideal line for athletes who are unwilling to accept compromises.
Five different styles of high tech ski goggles provide optimum performance wherever you ski and in all types of weather and temperature conditions.
The North Face Acetate Ski Goggle Lenses:
Celluslose acetate is a material used to make top-quality, resistant lenses for vision correction with great anti-fog properties.
Multi Grip Rubber Elastic Band:
Ideal for use with helmets. The rubber on the interior of the band grips the surface of the helmet to ensure stability.
The North Face Ski Goggle Design Features:
Venturi Effect:
Air does not enter the goggles through the lower vent (as it does in traditional products), instead it is channelled to the low outlet vents creating steam depression that pushes it outside.
F.E.S. (Fit Extension System):
The force generated by the tension on the elastic with the use of the helmet has no direct effect on the lenses, and so keeps optical distortion to the minimum.
Pre-Formed Anallergical Foam:
The facial support has been made with a special anallergic foam which has been studied to ensure maximum comfort. Thermoshaping allows the thickness of the foam to vary to better mould the support to fit the face.
DL (Double Lenses):
The internal and external filters of these types of lenses are made of acetate that has undergone a special antifogging treatment. They are connected through a gasket that creates an insulating gap.
U.M.C. (Unscratchable Mirror Coating):
Exclusively by The North Face these leanses have an internal mirror-coated surface which make them impossible to damage. Mirror coating is a special treatment that gives the lens surface a shiny mirror-like appearance to reflect rays from surfaces such as water, snow and ice and increasing light filtration.
