Unbeatable value.
The best goggles on the market, at half the price. Our competitors are stuck with legacy manufacturing processes and outdated distribution models - we're not.
Reviewed by the best.
Don't just take our word for it: our goggles have received glowing reviews from Outside Magazine, Ski Magazine, Blister Gear Review, Freeskier Magazine, Backcountry Magazine, and more.
Grassroots to our core.
We live and breathe skiing from our headquarters in Breckenridge, Colorado. Check out our video series to follow along on local backcountry tours, resort pow days, and more.

Our Story
Hey,
I'm Curt - the guy behind the curtain at Glade. A lifelong skier, I grew up skiing around the Mad River Valley of Vermont and I now call Breckenridge, Colorado home. I started Glade because as you may have noticed, the ski industry has changed over the past decade or so - and not necessarily for the better.
Acquisition activity, category consolidation, and the demise of many ski media properties has slowly stripped away the soul and spirit of skiing. Never before has there been such a divide between skiers and the brands they buy from. As I type this, nine of the top ten goggle and helmet brands are now owned by a parent corporation.
That's why I started Glade: to celebrate, support and add to skiing's distinct grassroots culture. I hope you'll join us.
Happy skiing,

I love skiing and getting outside. So does everyone who works here - that's why we built Glade differently than most companies. We’re small. We work late. We work early. We take Friday off. We love midday rides when the snow is good… or bad.
We pride ourselves on delivering killer products and service - and that will always be priority number one for us.
Happy skiing,
