About Anon Goggles

Anon is a leading name in snowboard goggles. If you've spent any time on the slopes, you've probably seen many riders wearing the label. Expect to pay anywhere from $50 to $140 for a new pair of Anons, depending on the style, model and features of the goggles you choose.

  1. Features

    • Anon goggles feature a variety of styles and colors to fit any wardrobe, and come in models for both men and women. The men's line includes the Figment, Helix, Realm and Jeremy Jones Figment Pro Model. In women's, Anon offers the Majestic and Solace. Additionally, many models feature interchangeable straps so you can switch straps with friends, giving you the protection you need with the look that you want.

    Function

    • The main function of a snowboard goggle is to protect and enhance your vision when you're riding in cold, inclement conditions. Many of Anon's goggles feature injected lens technology in which lenses are injected into preformed shapes in order to enhance clarity and reduce refraction. Several of Anon's goggles, including the Realm and Solace, feature spherical lens technology designed to limit distortion and provide acute vision of the slope ahead. Several other goggles, such as the Jeremy Jones Pro and Figment, feature a panoramic profile that uses a lens that is thicker in the middle and thinner on the edges to limit distortion and enhance your view.

    Prevention/Solution

    • A common issue with snowboard goggles is that they fog up, severely impairing vision and causing an annoying inconvenience. Anon goggles include a number of features designed to eliminate fogging. Channeled top venting is standard on many Anon models and is designed to increase air circulation, which will prevent fogging. Several models, including the Figment and Solace, have an interchangeable air mesh ventilation system consisting of removable ventilation inserts that are snow and water repellent and protect from moisture problems. Anon lenses also feature an anti-fog coating.

    Types

    • Anon offers a full range of lens colors so you can purchase goggles for the light conditions you ride in. Some options include clear for night riding, red ice for flat variable light conditions, silver mirror for bright days, and gold for versatile protection. Available lens tints vary by model.

    Size

    • Fit is the final piece of the puzzle when it comes to snowboard goggles. If the goggle doesn't fit right, all the anti-fogging and optic technology in the world isn't going to mean much. In order to help provide the perfect fit many Anon goggles feature an auto-adjust strap hinge that allows for quick adjustment from head to helmet. Whether you're riding with a helmet or without, you can get the right fit quickly and get out and ride.
