Smith I/OS Goggles in detail . . .

The Smith I/OS ski and snowboard goggles feature the following technical features:

Tapered Lens Technology

“Objects in lens are exactly the same as they appear.” When light passes through a medium it refracts, i.e. changes course. If left uncorrected, this refraction can cause visual distortion and eye fatigue. Smith’s Tapered Lens Technology straightens out the incoming light rays by progressively tapering the lens from the optical center toward the peripheral view. What this means for you is that you see with 100% accuracy and maximum comfort. Available in all Smith Turbo Fan goggles, Spherical and Regulator Series goggles.

Hydrophobic Lens Coating

A durable hydrophobic coating bonded to all mirrored lenses reduces smudging and increases scratch resistance.

Carbonic-X Lens

Smith has set the standard in lens performance. All Turbo Fan, Spherical and Regulator Series lenses feature a Carbonic-X outer lens. Each one is individually molded to offer optimum scratch and impact resistance, increased visual acuity and enhanced contrast sensitivity. The inner lens is impregnated with our Fog-X lens treatment for increased anti-fog performance. The Carbonic-X lens meets Class 1 optical standards as well as ANSI Z80.3 standards.

Regulator Ventilation

Patented Regulator adjustable lens ventilation system in the Smith Spherical and Regulator Series provides added control of airflow through the goggles. Use the open position while stopped in line or on the lift to increase the circulation of dry, fresh air. Close it before descending to prevent tearing.

Vaporator Lens Technology with Porex Filter

Patented Vaporator lens technology leads the industry in thermal lens barriers. Utilizing processes previously reserved for aerospace and medical capacities, our lenses are robotically cut and bonded together with an airtight silicone bead to eliminate lens delamination—the number one cause of between-the-lens fogging.

A revolutionary, micro-porous filter called Porex completes the system. Its composition is structured such that air molecules may pass through the filter while water molecules cannot. By utilising this filter, the thermal lens is allowed to adjust to varying altitudes while preventing moisture from entering the space between the lenses. This is the world’s strongest thermal lens barrier.

Thermal Lens

Two single lenses bonded together with a sealed “dead air” space between them create a thermal barrier that keeps the inner lens warm and dry. Like storm windows—but much more comfortable—this process helps prevent fogging by keeping the inner lens above the dew point.

Fog X Lens Treatment

A hydrophilic chemical treatment creates a micro-etched surface on the inner lens to absorb moisture before fog can form. Because Fog-X is a treatment that is actually burned into the lens, it can’t be wiped away like other anti-fog coatings.

Articulating Outrigger Positioning System

A key element in goggle/helmet compatibility. Engineered to adjust to a full range of face shapes and sizes, the Articulating Outrigger Positioning System evenly transfers pressure across the brow and nose to ensure a complete seal against the face. When used with a helmet, the outrigger articulates allowing the goggle frame to sink into the helmet face port, ultimately providing a comfortable and consistent fit every time.

Flexible Urethane Frame

Smith uses a unique urethane compound, which allows the goggles to conform to individual facial features while maintaining its flexibility in extreme cold temperatures.

Split V Nose

A Smith innovation that strategically interrupts the urethane in the nose area of the goggle frame to provide a self-adjusting fit.

Driwix Performance Face Foam

Ultra-plush. Perfect fit. The Smith dual layer DriWix compression-molded face foams seal out the wind and moisture for maximum comfort and performance.

Technology Woven Strap

Smith's high quality, durable, double-woven strap distributes pressure more evenly around the head to provide superior fit, adjustability and comfort.

• Silicone bead for superior helmet compatibility featured on all Smith Spherical, Turbo Fan and Smith Regulator goggles and select Airflow models.
• Clip buckle for easy on and off featured on all Smith Spherical, Smith Turbo Fan and Regulator goggles.
