FIND OUT WHICH SKI Goggle IS YOURS

But then, which ski goggle do I choose? Which one do I need? We imagine that after the articles, you will be in the position of saying "I need all of them". The truth is that we have detailed the parts to take into account to be able to differentiate a quality lens from one that is not, what factors are important to protect your eyesight and the most demanded lens models. So, when asked if you really "need it all". Well, this is partly true and partly not. It will undoubtedly depend on your situation as a rider, so be careful because this is the definitive article .

You will have heard a lot about "where am I and where do I want to go" and that is that we would all like to see the future and know if we will be an Olympian in this sport, but I have good news, here we are going to put those worries aside and based on the day to day: this season.

It's important to keep in mind that there will always be an opportunity to change skins and we don't have to restrict ourselves to one or two. So, if in the following season or throughout the year we find ourselves in need of buying another mask because we are not the same rider profile that we were when we read this, we can always do it: it is not an all-or-all decision nothing.

That said, we are going to give you different situations and the lens that we recommend for each one.

These would be the most translucent glass lenses for days with worst visibility, cloudy conditions or, as the name itself indicates, a blizzard. Generally the color of its glass is pink or gray and our eyes will be seen through them from the outside, they would be a CAT.1 These have a fixed lens and it can be said that they are the cheapest. Our recommendation? If you plan to just get away for a few days in the snow, you run the risk of having to buy another goggle because every day is so sunny. On the other hand, these lenses would be highly recommended if you live near the mountains or go skiing regularly, because you will always find bad days. If this is your case, do not hesitate to buy them, because on these cloudy days they will be your best and only ally. Lastly, it should be noted that, despite the fact that at Uller we manufacture CAT.1 with one of the best qualities on the market, if you buy these glasses, this cannot be your only purchase: they should always go hand in hand with others for sunny days .

These will be the perfect complement for the previous ones, the blizzard lenses. They are masks that, to be honest, you will give more use. In general, and even more so if you are not a regular at this sport, you are going to use them at almost all times, since the days you will be will be mostly sunny. These are appropriate for sunny days and/or with some cloudiness.

So, if your budget is small and you only have one option to invest in, either for a little snowy getaway or to start in the discipline, this is your best option. In our models of the subcategory “fixed lenses” you have multiple to choose from, just be careful to choose those from CAT.3.

A combo? Here we have yours, and it is that, if carrying several masks is not your thing, we can make the path easier for you and bring you the interchangeable lenses. We remind you that these consisted of the same mask frame that had the particularity that its lenses were removable and interchangeable, being able to change one for another depending on the weather. Our models have a CAT lens.1 (low visibility) and another CAT.3 (good visibility). And you will ask yourself: come on, if I can't get the glass out and fit the other one, what a mess I'm going to make! Well, I have to tell you that if it is with one of our models you won't have any problem , since they have a very powerful magnetic system that prevents them from coming off, but at the same time makes it easier to exchange. Who are they for? Really for all kinds of riders who are regulars going to the mountains or occasionally looking to invest a little more to be covered on all kinds of days. It is especially highly recommended for people who are very sensitive to light variations, since unlike the photochromic ones that self-regulate themselves, you adapt them according to your preferences. On our website you can find these models under the subcategory “interchangeable magnetic lens”.

Now mate, we've reached the pinnacle of technology when it comes to lenses. Here we have to emphasize that in the market we will find photochromic and polarized lenses, we must not be deceived that the polarized ones are always photochromic or vice versa, unless they explicitly mention it to us, as is the case with Uller. Uller merges both technologies to bring photochromic and polarized lenses in the same mask. Photochromic lenses, as we already explained, are a type of tinted lenses using a liquid that darkens or lightens them depending on the intensity of the external light. On the other hand, the function of the polarized ones is to reflect the rays of light from the surfaces to prevent them from bothering or damaging us. These masks in terms of budget are the least economical, but in terms of comfort, they are your best ally, since with a single mask you forget about having to change the lens or not. Who are they for? Well, for anyone. If your priority is quality and comfort, if you prefer not to have to worry about finding the other mask or the interchangeable lens and enjoy without interruptions of the moment. Specifically, our models with these characteristics are those listed under the category “photochromic lenses”, varying from a CAT.1 to CAT.3 autonomously.

We hope that this compilation article has finally helped you to know which lenses to decide on, likewise, we will always be willing to recommend you in each case in a personalized way to help you bring out the rider in you.
