I have a set of Scott turbo flow 89s they are sweet. I also have a set of Scott Hi Voltage snowcross goggles and they are even better.
I also have a pair of Oakleys with I think O frames, maybe A frames not sure but they are very good too. And I have a set of Smith Snow Warps (i think) I dont have any complaints about any of them really. I have a variety of lense colors and different wind deflector attachments for 3 out of the 4 also.

i have a pair of smith spectra's, the are snowboarding goggles but they work good for me because they were ment to fit over glasses and the tint is really good for looking at snow all day

I have a pair of Scotts turbo flows and a set of Smith Caribo snows. I prefer the Smith over the Scotts. My turbos tend to fog more than the cariboos when riding in the mountains for whatever reason.

I have the Scott turbos and they doo fog sometimes. I was looking at a pair of Smith Warps or the PRo grip googles from Royal that are light sensitive. Basically I want the biggest googles I can get so that they provide maximum viewing and face protection.

I've got a pair of the Scott Turboflows too, and I'm not very impressed with them. I've never had a problem with fogging, but the vent screening doesn't seem to be fine enough, and they let snow inside the goggles, and they're not as big as the Smiths I used to have, so I have to wear a balaclava all the time or my forehead gets cold.

I do recommend the Quickstraps though. That's all I've ever used, and it's a great system.

I have a pair of Smith Warps. So far they have been great, never fog up. They have yellow tint in the lenses which is great for the day, but I don't care for it much at night.

I have scott hi voltage, will never own another kind, they are the best. Tested them from 5 celcius down to -40 and never foged up. I bought the electric goggles (from lazer I think) in case that the scott foged, but they are still siting on the shelf, still in the box :p

I have used Smith, Scott, and just regular ski goggles. The Smiths were the worst for fit and warmth and the Scotts were fitted good and sealed up but are only moto-x goggles and air did get in through the foam. The ski goggles were the warmest but didn't fit as good as the Smiths because they weren't made for a moto-x helmet. Overall though I perfer the Scott goggles with a good warm balclava.

I've used just about everything on the market. The Scott TurboFlow's are very good and reasonably priced. I've added a nose beak for a bit more wind resistance too.

you also can't go wrong with the Oakley "Wisdom" These are the best googles I have ever owned

I have Oakley O frames, with the nose guard attachment, which helps block more wind. They are great. Orange tint really helps see the terrain, and doesn't hinder sight when it gets dim or dark.
