    Rx-able Ski goggles

    Ski season is coming fast. What Rx-able ski goggles do you folks recommend? Are there any new brands that are getting popular?

    We currently carry Bolle Krait, Smith Caribou and Turbo Cam and Uvex goggles. To me, the Uvex are ugly and the Smith Goggles are a terrible design, the metal bridge that secures the rimless Rx mount seems to break on folks. I was just wondering what everyone else was using these days.

    Frannel has some excellent inexpensive (but they do not appear or perform inexpensive) ones that : 1: have a removable insert for Rx, 2: Have two shields, one of which is photochomic. And look and work very well.

    Remove insert and can be worn over contacts. Put insert in and can be worn without contacts. Clear shield for night, Photochomic for all other conditions.
