Great, fashionable goggle. Not very compatible with brimmed helmets.
I sent the goggles back because they didn't fit me when used in conjunction with my Smith Variance helmet; the goggles are fairly big, so they used up every inch of space between my forehead and the helmet's brim, and then some. So the brim and the goggles would essentially be touching, and the brim would push down on the top of the goggles. Add in gravity(head bobbing up and down slightly, jumping, etc.) and this caused the goggles to go down on my face, even on the tightest setting, and eventually the part of the goggle that sat on my nose would be inside of the goggle(obviously a hazard if this was to happen in the middle of a snowboarding run since it makes it harder to breathe, and is just extremely inconvenient).Pros:- The goggles themselves are very well made and seemed just fine as far as comfort goes.- Comes with an extra green lens(meant for night riding/low light conditions).- Both the lenses and the goggles themselves seemed of quality construction.- Comes with a decent carrying pouch for cleaning, handling, and carrying your goggles around.- Great field of view and clarity- Reputable companyCons:- The lining that holds the lens in seemed very, very stiff and was a bit of a hassle to get the lenses out. If that lining wasn't designed to "break in" to a certain degree in over time(which, i'm not sure that it was or wasn't because I didn't own the goggles for long enough to find out), then that could mean having to fumble with them for a little bit each time you wanted to change a lens. I'm a bit new to the snowboarding/snow gear genre, so maybe I am wrong on this part and these are actually easy compared to other goggles out there, but I couldn't see myself being very happy about having to switch lenses while wearing these on the mountain.- Doesn't seem to work very well with helmets that have a brim, due to the bulkiness.All in all, if these had ended up fitting my face when used with my Smith Variance helmet, then I would've definitely kept them. But they didn't, so I am sending them back. If you don't own a helmet that has a brim - whether it be Smith or not - I would suggest at least trying these. They really do look great and seem like a great goggle, but it just wasn't in the cards for my particular setup.

Great view and color, but still flawed.
A 4 out 5 of is still a solid rating.These goggles are truly oversized offering a great field of view and excellent panoramic vision. The color scheme of the ones I ordered is awesome in my opinion, they came in a nice Electric goggles box, comes with a cloth bag, and an extra night/low light conditioned lens.For the quality and price of these goggles I take off a star due to 2 issues for all1. No gripping adhesive on the strap, I'd expect for a company and goggles of this quality to have this so it better stays on the helmet, especially with them being oversized.My complain with this is that I've seen cheaper quality goggles, and even decent Oakley goggles that cost much cheaper than these and they still include that thin silicone adhesive on the inside of the band for non slips.2. The frame doesn't exactly work best with all helmets, I've tried 2 different Smith helmets of mine I own and neither one have a good fitting helmet brim for these goggles, so I'll be purchasing another helmet just to get these things to be wearable with (they are that cool) .I may be picky, but these are still great goggles, just a little more difficult to work with on helmets.

nice wide field of view
I ordered the EG2 Dagger with bronze Blue Chrome lensesPros: nice wide field of view. Easy to adjust straps even with mittens on. Lenses are fairly easy to swap out although the rectangular lugs can be difficult to align in the lower half of the frame.Cons: the lens finish started to wear off after my fourth use. This doesn't affect functionality, they just look pretty busted. I ordered a set of clears in addition since this set comes with only one lens. The lens also let moisture in between the layers on a rainy day, and took about 4 days to fully dry leaving me with only my back up set. In general most of my quality problems are with the lens itself. Electric in the past hasn't had as many issues so hopefully this is just a bad model.If you're considering purchasing: I would go for a non-reflective finish so it is less noticeable when the exterior finish on the lens starts to break down.

Not fit for Asian nose features
They ARE HUGE. The problem is that I am Asian and i dont have a high nose bridge. Since we are naturally like that with flatter facial features, the goggle does not seal off the space between the cheeks and nose, which allows air and snow to go in. Mostly I worry about the air going in at higher speed and drying my eyes and its uncomfortable that the helmet sometimes pushes the goggles down. Just not the right fit for my face that is all. They do look good. Beware the color on the green and "silver" on the picture is not correct. The lenses are mostly black like sunglasses.

I loved the goggles so much that I had to order ...
Electric was the first company that invented the wide framed goggles. I first ordered the pair when i first went to mammoth to go snowboarding in 2010. I loved the goggles so much that I had to order another pair. they are at a very good price for what you get compared to high priced models. there is little to no fogging in the lenses, they are well ventilated and the colors they come in are awesome. the camo edition i received are great. they even have silacone or some rubbery type of texture on the inside of the band that keep them on your head even if your are wearing a helmet.

Not Same Color as Photo, came with wrong lense
Quality electric EG2. Everything is perfect with the exception of the color of the lenses and the green color is not as advertised. The green that it came in is much brighter than the product photo shows. Also the product photo shows a chrome lenses and it came with a bronze chrome style. Not as nice, although they did throw in a new lense for free. Bottom line, quality product, best goggles ever.

Great goggles but crappy warrantee
The goggles themselves are awesome, no glare and work very well in the sun. But after them getting scratched my second time out with them, I was very disappointed that I'm just stuck with a giant scratch on them. Even though this was my fault, I barely got any use and there is no recourse for me to get them fixed, besides buying a new lens
