While a hatchet is a must have camping accessory, the Zeal Hatchet is a must have ski and snowboarding accessory. These cylindrical goggles with a frameless design create a huge field of view for medium faces to see trees, bumps, and jumps clearly while you rip down the hill. The Optimum Polarized lenses in these goggles are anti-fog treated and greatly reduce glare off of the bright white snow. They also feature a vertical Rail Lock system that allows for super quick, frustration free lens changes.

I have run Anon M2, Smith Squad XL, and Smith IOX the past two seasons , and now the Hatchets which are my new favorite. These are not HUGE, they are smaller than the Anon M4, the Squad XL and IOX (last two by just a hair) but still offer great field of view. The hard coat on the inside and outside work amazing, and prevents the typical scratches from stray branches, and typical wear and tear. The optics are good, maybe a shade below chromapop or just different since it polarized? Anti fog is good, i have fogged them a bit standing around, but they vented as soon as I rode, or you can just click the lenses up and vent them. The Rail lock system is great, and the strap has a thick band of silicone. The frame is sturdy as are the lenses, and the low light lens is great for those whiteout days.

I bought these for my wife for Christmas, but they were gigantic on her and wouldn't fit with her helmet. Too big even for me (6ft male).
