I have used 100% Racecrafts for the last few years because they were the only goggle that would comfortably fit over my glasses. I had Lasik last November and now notice that without my glasses underneath them, the outside of my eye hits the foam when I blink and drives me nuts. Just wondering if anyone has experienced this and switched to a different goggle that works better? or is wider? I love the fit and finish of the 100% but am thinking i need to try something else.....

I bought a couple pairs of Oakley airbrakes on sale from BTO and love them. Yesterday was the first time out with them and have never had a better goggle. Every other pair I've used seem to pinch my nose but these fit perfect and one of the best lenses for clarity.

I run into that same issues as well, but it doesn't quite bug me as much and them hitting my eyes. I've looked at airbrakes a few times, just never pulled the trigger due to the cost...… In your opinion, they were worth the $$ ?

On sale for 80$ worth every penny! Pretty sure I would never buy them for 200$

Scott Prospects are the best goggles i've ever worn, even better than airbrakes imo. doesn't pinch my nose and has a ton of space from the lens and your face. just my .02

I used to run Airbrakes and now run Prospects. The Airbrakes are fantastic but the Prospects fitted me slightly better and the roll-off system is better (very important for me in mud/wet races).

The only minus for the Prospects is the old school lens that is not even close to the Airbrake injected molded lens. It took me a couple of hours to get used to a normal stamped lexan lens that comes with the Prospects.

Any of you Prospect wearers notice a gap on the bottom of the goggle (on both sides of the nose, basically) to where it feels like the goggle isn't making a good seal with your face?

I just got my first pair and it seems like dust would easily enter the goggle through the gap.

Maybe it's just my face.

Owned almost all of them. Airbrakes are the best. The Prizm lenses are top notch. I really wanted the Prospects to be a better goggle, but was let down. Still a good goggle though. Have not purchased a set of the Leatt goggles, but have played with them a little. They seem decent enough, but not enough to replace the Oakley's.

I do too. I’ve worn many goggles over the years and never had fit issues. Love the field of vision with the Prospect, but they don’t seal well around my nose and cheeks either. Yet to try Airbrakes, but will soon.

Thanks for this comment! Been looking for some “no pinch” for a while now. I’ll have to try these

Went from 100% accuri's to fox air defence. I ordered some FlowVisionCo goggles. came out to something like 60$ shipped for 2. Quality looks good. Will report back in a week.

BTO still has some of the Airbrakes on sale

I got a pair a few weeks ago and they are amazing! The vision in those lenses is noticeable better than the Fox and Xbrands I have

I switched from 100% to Airbrakes. I’ve wanted to try Prospects but I can’t imagine liking anything better than these airbrakes to be honest. The lens are awesome. Paid $99, wouldn’t pay anything more tho

BTO does flash sales for $69 here and there but they sell out quick

I was using 100% goggles, then switched to Prospects and loved them. But then I went and bought a pair of Airbrakes to try out and that ruined me forever for wearing anything else.

IMHO best goggles available, especially if you’re like me and change out lens allot. With that said I’ve never paid more than $100 for any of the 5 pairs of Airbrakes I own.

Thanks for all the input guys. Will keep my eyes open for sales on both the Airbrakes and Prospects and try them out!

I've tried pretty much anything but I keep going back to Scott Hustles. For me just the best google on the market. The only thing that it doesn't offer is the big field of vision, which I don't really care about.
Prado runs them as well (for a reason I guess). Cody Webb runs them at hard Enduro races instead of the Prospects.

7$ for a new lens...
