| Review: |
My fiance and I each have a pair of these goggles and they are pretty good as a first pair of goggles. The package comes with a goggle pouch, which is a nice touch in a value priced goggle. For the most part the goggles fit very well, especially for my fiance who has a smaller head. For me they still fit fairly well, but I had to cut a piece out of the nose for it to really be comfortable.
Initially I got these goggles because of the fan, which definately does its job in preventing fogging up. The fan itself runs on a single AA battery which gets good battery life assuming you remember to turn the fan off. On my goggles the fan is not too loud, but on my fiance's pair it is unfortunately a little loud (a couple of times it has given me her position) and she has to turn it off occasionally.
Overall I'm happy with the goggles considering the price I paid. |

| Conclusion: |
Buy it as a first pair of goggles, you won't run into the fogging trouble which can be really frustrating when you first start out. But be sure to check out the fan before you buy a specific pair.
I can't comment on how it compares to higher end goggles, but they do their job, and are pretty comfortable. I'll say this, there are hundreds of other paintball upgrades I will consider before upgrading from these goggles. |
