Let's first understand that these are cheap glasses. About 6 dollars a piece. Do they compare to 30+ goggles? No, are they suppose to? No.
I ordered 4, Green and Yellow, White and Blue. All of them came with the multicolor lens that make things a little dark (think light sunglasses). However, the blue pair lens looks the same, but adds a yellow brown tint to everything. Not a problem, just weird.
The padding is not very thick and therefore, they are not nearly as comfortable as nicer googles that end up being 1-2 inches thick. The padding on these are less than a 1/2 inch, probably close to 1/4 inch.
The molds on two pair have little bits of plastic missing, this doesn't effect functionality of the product, it just shows cheap build.
The strap is about 1 inch wide, and I don't expect the elastic to last longer than a year or two.
If you look at the image, next to the lens there is a slit in the plastic...This is how they keep it from fogging. To be proactive, I put some anti-fog on the lenses anyway.
My wife doesn't enjoy skiing, and I have two small kids. I had a nice pair of Googles that the foam dry-rotted. We don't ski often, but skiing without Goggles is a bad idea. For the price, you get what you pay for and in this situation maybe even a little more.
Good, Better, Best ? - Good.
As for sizing, the strap will fit small kids, the glasses bend some, even with a helmet. I am an adult male and wear a 7 1/4 hat and they fit me. Out of the 4 pairs, 1 is uncomfortable around the bridge of my nose due to how the foam was glued on. Again, a little quality issue, but it that is to be expected. I wouldn't want to have an adult size head with a helmet. The padding isn't thick enough and I would think you would have fogging and plastic pushing into your face.
For 1-3 times a year skiing and a family of 4...I think this is a great deal. 4 for the price of 1.
