Snow goggle technology has been in a deep freeze for decades.
Oakley is fanatics about everything to do with gravity, risk and snow capped peaks, and some of the greatest athletes on the mountain rely on our innovations. That’s why they tore apart the whole concept of goggles and reinvented them from scratch. The result is Oakley Splice®. To understand what they mean, you have to try on these goggles. Period. When you do, you’ll experience the unbelievable comfort of their skeletal support system. It took a ton of anatomical engineering, and the end result is a unique architecture that spans the entire nasal area. The internal support system reduces pressure on the nose by tuning the distribution of contact forces across critical zones. As if that’s not enough, it also maximizes airflow. The support system works with O Matter® frame material that remains flexible even in extreme cold. Combined with moisture wicking triple-layer fleece foam and strap outriggers that evenly balance pressure, the system makes this design one of the most comfortable goggles ever created for winter sports. Splice has an interchangeable lens design that features semi-flush lens mounting, a means of optimizing downward visibility. Side-to-side vision is also maximized. Our designers matched optical innovations in lens contouring with structural refinements, so even the strap outriggers are engineered to stay out of the way and help maintain a panoramic view with wide-open peripheral vision. The Oakley tech team went even further, devising a way to eliminate the keyhole structures that normally come with interchangeable lens designs. The process of lens changing has never been faster or more efficient. All Splice lenses are dual vented and feature Oakley’s F3 anti-fog technology. Pure PLUTONITE® lens material filters out 100% of all UVA, UVB and UVC while offering unrivaled impact protection. Interchangeable lenses for Oakley Splice goggles come in performance colors with premium options. All Splice lenses feature the unbeatable clarity of High Definition Optics®.

Forget what you think you know about goggles. Oakley has completely changed the name of the game with the polarized Splice. These could very well be the most comfortable goggles ever created for winter sports. They have done a lot of anatomical engineering with the end result being a unique architecture which reduces pressure on the entire nasal area by tuning the distribution of contact forces to greatly enhance airflow. The skeletal support system works with the lightweight O Matter frame that will retain its flexibility even in extreme cold. And to further reduce pressure and augment comfort the frame is surrounded by a thick triple layer of fleece face foam with moisture wicking properties and strap outriggers that keeps everything evenly balanced with or without a helmet. The dual vented pure Plutonite lens material provides unsurpassed impact protection and the HD Polarized technology offers reduced glare with minimal distortion and haze for improved depth perception. They have also been treated with a specially formulated F3 Anti-fog coating and offer 100% UV protection from all harmful rays. Oakley has raised the bar on what you have come to expect from high performance precision eyewear with the Splice Polarized goggles.

Oakley Splice Polarized Goggles Reviews:
Reviews:
Since there's plenty of content and reviews on the Splice goggles but none on the Polarized version, I'll just focus on that.
It's great! You can really navigate your route of travel that much better with the Polarized feature. It eliminates glare on many levels and after some rough abuse there's no change. I always go for Polarized to protect my eyes.
I own the Jet Black/VR28, a wonderful all around lens. I tested it for two weeks in a large range of conditions and it preformed great for an all around lens. In VA the weather can change rapidly so I was tired of trying to predict the weather and decide on the "most optimal lens". I even went riding in trees at night while it was snowing, could see just fine. But while doing that I took some branches straight to the face! Go figure. :P I thought I just damaged my brand new goggles but there were no scratches!
Purchased April 2010 from here, but for $40 cheaper. End of season I suppose.
These goggles are fairly good. They are comfortable and light weight but it can be difficult to switch the lens. In my opinion, polarized lenses for skiing are useless as it cuts the glare so you can't see the ice and other objects.
Super comfortable, doesn't pinch your nose at all, doesn't fog up, and best of all lens changes are a breeze!!
