Best Snowboarding Goggles Of 2026
Snowboard goggles are a critical piece of snowboard equipment that provides comfort and safety on the mountain. If you can't see, you can't shred. All goggles will provide fundamental protection from wind, snow, and UV rays, however, there are many options to choose from. Scroll down and check out our top picks of the best snowboard goggles.
Spherical Lens Goggles
Spherical lenses curve both vertically and horizontally across the face. These lenses provide better peripheral vision as well as less optical distortion and lens glare. The larger the lens the better peripheral vision you will have.
Cylindrical Lens Goggles
Cylindrical lenses curve horizontally from ear-to-ear but remain flat vertically from the nose-to-forehead. The flat profile of these lenses can result in more glare and reduced peripheral vision compared to spherical lenses. Cylindrical lenses provide good performance at a lower price point.
Variable Light Conditions
Cloudy/Variable light lenses provide the widest range of UV protection and visibility of the three lens categories. These lenses feature VLT ratings that cover the middle of the spectrum and make them a great option if you need one lens to perform well in all conditions.
Bright Light Conditions
Sunny/Bright lenses provide the best protection from harmful UV rays and are ideal for riding full sun conditions. These types of lenses typically feature darker tints and colors and often have a mirrored reflection on the lens surface.
Low Light / Night Conditions
Night/Low light lenses provide the best visibility in conditions with minimal natural light. These lenses feature higher VLT ratings which make dark conditions and surroundings appear brighter with increased clarity for better overall visibility and depth perception.
