Amazing looking, highly technical goggle from the always amazing Oakley.

Snow goggle technology has been in a deep freeze for decades. Oakley are fanatics about everything to do with gravity, risk and snow capped peaks, and some of the greatest athletes on the mountain rely on their innovations. That’s why they tore apart the whole concept of goggles and reinvented them from scratch. The result is Oakley Splice®.

When you put these goggles on you’ll experience the unbelievable comfort of the skeletal support system. It took a ton of anatomical engineering from Oakley, and the end result is a unique architecture that spans the entire nasal area. The internal support system reduces pressure on the nose by tuning the distribution of contact forces across critical zones. As if that’s not enough, it also maximizes airflow.

The support system works with O Matter® frame material that remains flexible even in extreme cold. Combined with moisture wicking triple-layer fleece foam and strap outriggers that evenly balance pressure, the system makes this design one of the most comfortable goggles ever created for winter sports.

Splice has an interchangeable lens design that features semi-flush lens mounting, a means of optimizing downward visibility. Side-to-side vision is also maximized. Our designers matched optical innovations in lens contouring with structural refinements, so even the strap outriggers are engineered to stay out of the way and help maintain a panoramic view with wide-open peripheral vision.

The Oakley tech team went even further, devising a way to eliminate the keyhole structures that normally come with interchangeable lens designs. The process of lens changing has never been faster or more efficient. All Splice lenses are dual vented and feature Oakley’s F3 anti-fog technology. Pure Plutonite® lens material filters out 100% of all UVA, UVB and UVC while offering unrivaled impact protection.

It's always a good idea to have a spare lens. A mirrored or dark lens looks sick and is great in sunny weather, but when the clouds roll in and the light gets flat, you can't beat a persimmon or yellow lens to help you see.
