By: Jen Streby: Senior Buyer | October 19, 2023

 

Every skier or snowboarder has experienced it at one time or another. It’s the best day of the season, the snow is beautiful and fluffy and piled high. You drop into the first run, and your goggles fog up immediately. Or maybe your lenses just aren't offering any contrast in the flat light. Whatever the reason, you’re blinded and frustrated, and your awesome day quickly crumbles into frustration. A good pair of ski goggles is an invaluable resource on the mountain. And in addition to keeping you happy and safe, and seeing where you’re going while you ride, the best ski and snowboard goggles can do so much more. With highly advanced lens technologies, refined frame shapes, and time-saving lens-changing systems, the goggles we’ve chosen for your best-of list this year will reduce stress, increase stoke, and keep you looking and feeling good while you ride.

Jen Streby

Hi! My name is Jen and while growing up in the very cold Midwest, I didn’t have much experience in the snow apart from sledding and building your classic snowman. Eventually, after college, I migrated my way out to Utah. There I stepped on the snow on skis for the first time at the young age of 27. The first experience being at Alta, doing a complete yard sale under the Collins lift on my first run. Stubborn me didn’t give up. I soon after got a job at Snowbird where I grew to love the sport and learned to love the mountains in the wintertime as much as I do in the summer.

My winter passion didn’t change upon moving to the PNW where I call Seattle my home. I started with evo 6 years ago and have been a buyer for several categories, one of which currently includes the snow accessories category. Come to me if you want to talk about helmets, goggles, gloves, and more.
