Default Goggles

I’m looking for a good set of goggles that will fit over a 3/4 helmet. I have not had any luck finding a pair that doesn’t have a gap in the corners of my eyes. If anyone knows a brand please let me know.

Klim Viper Pro Black Ops goggles are about the best you will find. Pricey, but very good. Superb viewport, high quality materials, great airflow. Also - specifically engineered with "outriggers" to avoid that gap at the corner problem!

They are primarily an "adventure" goggle, but are great for our needs as well.

Klim Viper Pro

Back around '75, I got tired of messing around with goggles, and started using a Comp shield on my 3/4 helmet. I liked the shield better.

OP~
Do you need RX goggles?

Or, goggles to fit over RX glasses?

I think "The Bobster" goggles might work.

If you want real deal googles I have set of Nannini for sale. It has black and clear lenses. I wore them maybe 5 times max before I bought full face helmet so these are practically new. High quality Italian real deal with genuine leather outline. I will let it go for good price if you are interested

Now these are what many consider " the real deal " by the way, these are made in england by little old ladies who have been sewing these googles for many decades.
