FIELD OF VIEW
The view from the EGX is very good but that should be expected from a wide-angle goggle with a cylindrical lens. The view would be better if the lens didn’t sit so far off the face so don’t expect an amazingly wide view just because it’s a wide-angle frame.
FIT
Very soft, triple-layer face foam made this goggle comfy to wear. The frame isn’t very flexible but contoured in the right places to fit on my face.
ANTI-FOG
No fogging occurred under any conditions. Note that I tested in the relatively dry climes of Colorado and don’t generally overheat when I ski. So use in humidity might yield a different result.
LENS QUALITY
The view through this lens was unimpressive compared to other goggles in its class. Features were bland and low-light was tough in the darker lens. The low-light lens was so light that it only worked on seriously cloudy days.
FRAME
Electric’s press-seal lens interchange system sounds great in theory – the lens just fits into a groove on the frame and pushes right in. Unfortunately, it doesn’t work this way. The seal wasn’t secure and never seemed fully locked-in. Push, pushing into place results in tons of finger prints.
VALUE
The price of this goggle is average for this class of gear. I was disappointed that the EGX just came with one, single-sleeve bag so I had to cram the goggle and the extra lens into the same bag which risks scratching both.
