When did goggles get so huge?!

I need to replace my old ones as my eyes get really tired very quickly (wrong colour lenses) and man, the new styles are asbolutely massive! I have a very small nose so it looks like a little mouse peeking out the end of a huge frame.

Can anyone recommend any brands they know that aren't too enormous?!

I don't think anyone looks great in goggles. Suggest you go and try some on and pick the least bad ones! I think mine are Oakleys, and they are massive and make me look like a bug.

I know what you mean! It's like having an ice-cream tub stuck on your face these days, isn't it!

I picked up a pair of Cairn Fusions in Meribel last year. They're quite low profile and fit my small features well. I'm desperately trying to find a pair with blue lenses for brighter days at the moment, but it seems they only do them in orange, which I already have.

I like the big ones for their wide field of vision.
