Well I need a new pair of goggles, my foams coming off and the back dont stick to my helmet no more.:p
My friend suggested mirror lensed goggles, Can anyone tell me who makes them and what kind of goggles will they fit in?
Please and thanks in advance

I don't know all the manufacturers that make mirrored lenses? I did a quick search on google for mirrored goggles and ended up with these.

Thanks man, but I mean like completely mirrored, where people cant see your face but you can see through the inside
look at the smith pistons, they're compleatly mirrored.
By the way, you won't be able to see out of mirrored lenses anywhere near as well as clear.

Hmmmm maybe they would be a bad investment

Thats with like 5 on, at the beginning of the race you see your reflection in them.

I run a pair of smith top fuel ti's with the red iridium lense... They kick *** when it's really bright outside adn there super clear... but I run a regular pair of dragon's at night time....

I have a set of chrome mirroed lenses in my smith fuel lsts and they are awesome i ma also running tearoffs to keep them looking good. I also run a clear lens at night time but it is jsut so i can get full visibilty and these chrome lenses seem to not let glare or anything like that in

I got tired of wearing goggles, so I made a faceplate. no more getting sand in my face when the wind is blowing at the dunes! :)
