Default whats a good goggle that will last?

im looking to get a good pair of goggles that will last and i wont have to go out any buy new ones after a year. I have spy blizzards that i got for 40 bucks (last years model) and i cracked the lens and its like impossible to find a new lens and the goggles themselves are just cheap. can anyone suggest good goggles? oakley, smith, scott, etc.

Get a higher model of spy's. Don't look just at designs either. Functionality>design.

Also read up on the specific model to find out if they crack/break. Another thing to look for in a nice pair would be how hard it actually is to find new a new lens for it. Whenever I bought new frames i always buy an extra lens just for safe keeping. My $0.02

My spy comets have been through some pretty hard wrecks this year and have held up fine.

I have been very happy with my Dragon DX goggles. Still have the same lenses now after 4 years and they are rock solid. Survived learning to ride and they put up with the foul weather that Mt. Hood unleashes very well. For a goggle under a $100 I can recomend them.

Dragon DX goggles are good and I liked the pair that I had. I'm about to get Anon Figment goggles. The goggle seemed to fit my face and noggin just right.

WM has Anon Figments for $69.99 and they are the shit. All of the others listed above are great goggles and I would also recommend Von Zipper Feenom's.
