i dont think anywhere untill next season, then they will be hard to find. im sure only a few core shops will carry them. I see tons of dudes in utah with them though since im pretty sure thats where most of those involved in the company live.

Goggles must be pretty cheap to make(as well as eyewear) because a lot more pros are starting their own goggle companies. I certainly know there's one hell of a markup on them!
Anyone want to start a goggle company? |

I have a great sense of humour. I'm also entitled.

Agreed, they look like the old non-spherical EG-1s. |

what's so special about them?
is it a fad or is there something technologically sound and innovative about them? |

the name is reminiscent of the 1960s drug scene in san francisco, thats where the name comes from and theyre a socal based company essentially.

its a goggle. how technical does it have to be ? anti-fog, check. comfy, check. red velvety flocking that touches your face, check. great peripheral vision, check. hand made in italy, check. supporting another rider owned company that knows why their team is so special, check. its pretty simple really.
plus my asian friend ben says that they don't fruck with his eyes like other brands can. i never took that into account until he said that yesterday on the hill. he gave em 2 thumbs up.

i didn't say it had to be something crazy innovative. i don't know how much they go for, but i'm just curious to the hype in them. aside from it being "rider based", there's basically nothing spectacular about them. that's all i was curious about.
