What tint should my ski goggles be?
When purchasing ski goggles, you'll want to choose the right tint, depending on the weather and your specific activity. Here is a list of the various tints and what they're best for:
- Yellow, Gold, Amber- Good for low light, moderate light, and fog. Emphasize shadows so you can see bumps in mountain terrain.
- Rose- Low-light, grey days.
- Green and other dark tints- Keep your eyes more comfortable in bright lights.
- Polarized- Block reflected glare and work well in bright light. Not ideal at end of day when shadows may be more prevalent.
- Mirror coatings- Block some glare. Usually used for cosmetic purposes.
- Clear lenses- Should always be used for night skiing.
