Scott aspherical lens OTG ski goggles. I'd used a UVEX pair last winter and liked them but lost them. Started off this winter with Scott's bottom-of-the-line OTG goggles, but walked into an outdoor store right after Xmas and found that they had the top-of-the-line Scott OTG goggles on sale for about 75% off, which I jumped at. Very nice, very comfortable, though they do fog a little (just a little) more than the cheaper Scotts did, likely due to them fitting closer to my face and having more of their vent area blocked by my balaclava. Rose tint to the lens, really contrasty against the snow and takes the sting out of oncoming traffic lights. To me they are as indispensable to winter riding as mittens and a helmet. Hard to be safe when your eyelashes are iced shut over your eyeballs.
