Smith Knowledge OTG - Review 2023

The brand that managed to build itself a great reputation on the market of ski equipment issued a pair of snow goggles we couldn’t ignore. Tempted by Smith’s claims of the goggles being exceptionally great at fog-preventing, UV-rays obstructing and OTG-friendly, we gave them a try. And they didn’t disappoint. We soon discovered them to feature a never-heard-before Carbonic-X lens type that is known to have a small number of surface points, meaning that the sun rays and a limited view do not pose an issue to the wearer. Rather, when paired with the Tapered Lens Technology, the gear fixes the visual distortion and enables the light to go straight to your eyeballs. The other technology named Porex Filter ensures the equalization of the air pressure that occurs within the sealed lens in order to reduce to the minimum the optical deformation. And as if this was not enough, Smith incorporated a floating foam membrane that alleviates the pressure put on temples during skiing or snowboarding. Essentially, every measure was taken to facilitate the best possible vision with close to zero limitations.
