In January, I found myself at Lee Canyon, a local ski hill near Las Vegas, ready to hit the slopes on what almost felt like opening weekend. The mountain had just been covered in its first snow, and excitement was high. What made it even better for me was the fact that I had a brand new pair of goggles on my helmet: the Opolis Optics ski goggles, which boasts to be the world’s first fully sustainable snow goggles. Launched in 2023, the goggles recently received an Outdoor Retailer Innovation Award to back up this claim.
I have been a fan of Opolis’s sunglasses for a few years due to my sensitive blue eyes that require constant protection. I was eager to put the brand’s latest eye protection to the test in order to determine if they are as sustainable as they claim to be, and if they perform well. In short, the Opolis Optics snow goggles, available in two models, deliver on two crucial aspects of outdoor gear: sustainability and performance. The hallmark feature of Opolis Optics is its StokedPlastic, which incorporates recycled ocean plastic in the plastic frame components, lenses, goggle bags, and face foam. It’s safe to say that these goggles offer more than just sustainability.
