Last season I boarded in AK and experienced difficulty with my previous goggles, so much so that they were mostly ineffective. Additionally, the foam was deteriorating so I needed a new pair. After much research I settled on a new pair of Glade goggles and was not disappointed. The worked as described and I am thoroughly happy with my purchase. I look forward to 2027 to try them at Breckenridge and again at Alyeska.
The case is great to protect your goggles when transporting them from home to the slopes. No worrying about the goggles getting crushed!
Great Case, very durable!
Fits the goggles well.

I’ve hardly used it. I have left my goggles on my helmet and they have yet to get a smudge, let alone a scratch. The hard case will come in handy for the off season though.
We have 2 cases and they work as advertised for the goggles. Very sturdy. On our last trip, we found out it’s the perfect size to hold sandwiches for the slopes. We fit 3 full sandwiches in the case that stayed in our bag all day skiing. No crushed sandwiches despite multiple falls!
In 60 years of skiing, patrolling and instructing, I’ve never had such great goggles as the Fathom+! Sure great to see what’s ahead so clearly.
Naturally, when zipping from full sun suddenly into a dark narrow trail, it pays to look well ahead and slow down, as there’s naturally some lag for the lens to lighten (I got the orange lens), but that’s to be expected and a small trade-off.
I intend to try some of the other interchangeable lenses, which is another great feature.
Glade Optics’ customer service staff are also exceptional. Great job all around!
As most of your reviews state, Glade has proven to be a top notch goggle.
Great lens technology. It was an awesome present for my wife.
Wow,
These goggles are wonderful. Had a great opportunity to find out just how well they work. Skiing in some crud bumps, the light suddenly got very flat. As I have known to do occasionally under these conditions, I was a little tentative toward the next unseen terrain. BUT, prior to getting to that bump, suddenly I could see great. The goggles adjusted in that half second, and the flat light was no longer was an issue. As I continued skiing that day, this happened several times and I was so used to expecting the correction, I no longer got tentative at all.
In addition, the goggles accommodate my prescription inserts very easily.
The case that I purchased with these goggles are also very well thought out. Easily put them away wet without worrying about the moisture being an issue. The goggles air out well and dry nicely in the case.
Thank you so much. Really a great product!

When you buy your goggles, and you already did, or you wouldn’t be reading this, get the case too ! Spend the extra $ and protect your investment ! I recently acquired a pair of the Glade Goggled from the website. I opted for the case ( i have kids), trust me, don’t skimp. I have other cases fro other companies, this case is by far the best. I might order more cases and put my other goggles from a « very common » named company in the cases. The cases is solid, well built and easy to use. The lining is good and soft, the design is great and made to protect your goggles. In a nutshell, very good case for my new favorite goggles.
Glade goggles are fantastic, they never fog and have great on snow definition. The goggles are very comfortable. The case is well made and protects thew goggles in transport. no scratches on the goggles with this case.
Just returned from Snowmass Colorado where my new Glade helmet and Glade Adapt goggles provided me with excellent performance and clarity on the slopes. Love the magnetic clasp on helmet strap and the hard carrying case for my goggles!
I like the case, for me, it fits perfectly inside the helmet and protects the goggles. It makes them easy to transport. I keep the goggles in their cloth case and put both in this hard side case. There is a flap on the inside to keep the goggles in the curved part. It's a little awkward to insert the goggles, but it keeps them secure. It has ventilation holes on the bottom to allow the goggles to dry out.
I love the fit and how adjustable they are. Great in the shade and sun. The case was worth adding to my order.
Skied in Canada when it was -30F and they worked perfectly! Skied when it was snowing. Skied on blue bird days. They worked exceptionally well in all conditions. Others had goggles that were fogging and freezing up, but these stayed so clear. Comfortable beyond belief, and the optics are world class. Much wider field of view, lens adjusted to changing light conditions, and so well made! The goggle case is a must have - you will want to keep these goggles in great shape. They are an amazing value. I love it when someone builds a quality product and sells it at a decent price. Also, their customer service is world class!! Stop reading this review and order yours now- before they sell out!
Wore the adapt 2 goggles for the first time in park city this winter. On day 1, we had blizzard like conditions and I could see great out of the lens. Day 2 was part cloud/part sun and the view was just as good. True photochromatic lens! The fit was also very comfortable and paired well with my smith helmet. Would definitely recommend
The Challenger Goggles are the best choice for my 11 years old son and me. Just spent a couple of months using them in low light or Full sun and the goggles perform exceptionally. Exceptional product. I couldn't believe the comfortable fit and exceptional functionality. Also important to note I had a first class Customer experience and interaction with the Team at Glade. You guys are really great. Thank you Curt, you are doing it the right way.
tried out my new glad googles for the first time yesterday at Copper Mtn. I wear glasses underneath my googles, so always a challenge to find gear that keeps everything with my vision clear and sharp. this new Glade product is absolutely a great pair of googles ! super in the bright sunshine. good in the shadows without changing the lens. comfortable, good match with my Anon helmet, and no hint of fog or lack of clarity in both early temps close to 10 f and later temps above freezing . I'm very pleased with the product. every bit as good, or better, than OTG products from Smith, Bolle and Anon that I have used in recent seasons. and I'm significantly impressed with the case, which I did just throw in the gear bag with boots and everything. no worries about protecting the googles. thanks, Curt and team, for great products.
I loved my glade goggles! They're going to last longer than me. The case is heavy duty and built to last.
Can’t say enough about the company and the googles themselves! The googles fit and look better than expected. Great optics in frameless design and great clarity even in the snow. The company went above and beyond to ensure I was able to receive my goggles in time for my trip. Glade is the only way to go!
Don’t purchase goggles without protecting them. Also, Glade’s customer service is the best in the business.
