Hey all - Tanner here (if this is your first time at the Lodge, check out our past ones here).
For those who wear glasses, hitting the slopes comfortably while maintaining crystal-clear vision can sometimes feel like a challenge. That’s where over the glasses (OTG) goggles come in, offering a seamless solution for skiers and snowboarders who need prescription eyewear. At Glade Optics, we understand the importance of both performance and fit, which is why we’ve designed two versatile OTG-compatible options: the Adapt 2 and the Fathom+ goggles. Here’s everything you need to know about choosing the right pair to to get you out there and ski confidently.
What Are OTG Goggles?
OTG goggles are specifically designed to fit comfortably over prescription glasses without sacrificing comfort, ventilation, or performance. These goggles feature deeper frame profiles, extra interior space, and strategic ventilation to prevent glasses from fogging up—ensuring a clear line of sight, no matter the conditions.
Glade OTG Goggles: The Adapt and Fathom+ Options
At Glade Optics, both the Adapt and Fathom+ goggles are built to accommodate most glasses measuring up to 5.5 inches wide by 2 inches tall. Each model is designed with thoughtful features to enhance comfort and performance, whether you're ripping through steep trees or gliding across open bowls.
1. The Adapt 2 Goggles
Our Adapt line is ideal for individuals with larger glasses or larger face profiles. The Adapt’s roomy interior and carefully engineered shape ensure a pressure-free fit over wider frames, making it the go-to choice for those who need extra space. Paired with our helmets, these goggles provide excellent ventilation and a secure, fog-free experience even with glasses.
2. The Fathom+ Goggles
If you have a medium sized face or wear slightly narrower glasses, the Fathom+ goggles are the best choice. These goggles maintain a snug, yet comfortable fit, offering the same advanced fog-free technology and exceptional clarity. The slightly smaller frame size ensures that the goggles sit perfectly without feeling oversized, providing optimal coverage and performance.
