I'm looking for a new pair of goggles after the foam on my cheap smiths pair has decided to fall off.
Can anyone recommend a decent pair for around $100?

I really liked my ProGrip light sensitive goggles (untill the foam died).
The foam was fantastic compared to the stuff on my Smiths.

Oakley does nice googles, one at $80 and one at $110, they have the best fit out their, the top of the line smiaths are pretty good as well, tehh foam is a whole lot better than the cheaper lines
The cheaper ones are throw away - but it hurts to do that eh?.I got some cheapie $60 Smiths on sale...I'll bite the bullet and toss them when they crap out,and buy another cheap pair.I don't know what expensive ones are like because I never buy them....

My $80 pro grip ones are great. light sensitive dodad and you can get replacement lenses.
Never fogged up on me either.
One thing, they are a tad tight across the bridge of my nose, but I've got a largeish nose. they have broken in now though and are sweet as.
I can third the progrip lightsensitive. The finish isnt outstanding, but they are pretty good. The lightsensitive bit is a nice touch, and I dont have any problems with fog either.
I did have a pair of spy googles before that, and they were crap. ALWAYS fogging up, it was unbelievable just how bad they were. Was forever stopping to try and clear them, or riding with them hanging around my neck just so I could see. Switched to the progrip ones and no more problems.

Im also a huge fan of Progrip googles. I'd say they're probably the best bang for buck google on the market in my opinion. I've never had a problem with them. They havent fogged up on me when ive been wearing them. And i found that getting a replacement lense recently was easy and there were lots of different lense types available and for i think $18 (for the lense) you cant complain.

I tried a pair of the progrip ones but they are a tight fit on my big head.
The Oakley Crowbar seem very nice for $115, anyone had experience with them?

i have had a set for about a month, they are very comfortable, i have just brought the retro set they came out (white and baby blue with old school logo) they don;t fog and they are good to wear, best thing is oakley last for ages, only problem is i can't fit roll offs on them
