How Do I Know Whether My Goggles Fit Right?

To make sure your goggles fit comfortably, try them on with your helmet, and with anything else you might wear outside. If you typically wear a hat or head scarf when you ski or snowboard, wear it underneath your helmet when you try on your goggles to achieve the truest fit.

Once you’re wearing your goggles, the face foam should feel snug, without any uncomfortable pressure points. You shouldn’t feel any air flow through the sides, as this can cause the goggles to fog up and dry out your eyes. Look for frames with foam-covered holes that allow air to flow through properly, without causing them to fog up.

Loosen up the strap if your goggles leave an obvious indentation on your face after wearing them. But be sure they still fit snug enough not to allow air to flow inside the lenses.
