Perfect fit: How to make your ski goggles fit your helmet perfectly

You've found the perfect slope, the snow is fantastic – but your ski goggles are pinching, slipping, or leaving a huge gap to the helmet edge? A poor fit can affect not only your comfort but also your safety. The good news: It doesn't have to be that way! We'll show you how to perfectly adjust your THE ARC ski goggles step by step, so they fit like a glove all day long and you can fully concentrate on your descent!

Why the fit of goggles and helmet is so crucial

Ski goggles and a helmet are a team. Only when they work together perfectly do they offer you full protection and maximum performance.

• Safety: A gap between goggles and helmet (the dreaded "goggle gap") not only looks unsightly, but is also a safety hazard. In the event of a fall, this area remains unprotected.
• Comfort: Pressure points on the nose or temples are extremely uncomfortable and distract you from driving.
• Performance: A seamless fit prevents cold air from entering and supports the anti-fog system of your glasses. The result: permanently clear vision!

THE ARC was designed precisely for this purpose: universal compatibility and a fit that adapts to your face and helmet.

The Fitness Check: Your step-by-step guide

Take two minutes to adjust your goggles properly. This small effort makes a huge difference on the slopes!

Step 1: The face check (without a helmet)

Place the THE ARC ski goggles on your face. The three-layer high-comfort foam should now gently and evenly conform to your contours.

• Check the nasal area: The foam should enclose the nose without pinching the nostrils or obstructing breathing.
• Feel the pressure: Do you feel an even, light pressure around your eyes? Perfect! There should be no pressure points or gaps through which air could enter.

Step 2: The helmet setup – How to avoid the “goggle gap”!

Now the helmet comes into play. Put on your helmet and position the ARC ski goggles.

• Seamless transition: Slide the goggles upwards so that the upper frame is flush with the bottom edge of the helmet. There should be no gap or only a minimal one. The flexible frame construction of the ARC is designed to be compatible with all major helmet brands.
• Goggle strap position: Position the goggle strap centrally and straight over the helmet. The integrated, non-slip silicone strap ensures that the strap stays exactly where it belongs – even during fast rides and jumps!

Troubleshooting: Common fit problems and their solutions

Your glasses don't fit perfectly yet? Don't panic! Here are solutions for the most common problems.

• Problem: The glasses press on the bridge of the nose.
• • Solution: This is usually due to an incorrect position in combination with the helmet. Pull the goggles up a tiny bit on the helmet. Even this small adjustment can relieve the pressure on your nose.
• Problem: The glasses keep slipping on the helmet.
• • Solution: Check the tension of the goggle strap. It should be snug, but not too tight. Make sure the silicone strap rests directly on the helmet shell and not on a fabric cover.
• Problem: The glasses fog up despite the ventilation system.
• • Solution: Often, a "goggle gap" is the culprit. If the gap is too large, the airflow of the anti-fog and ventilation systems is disrupted. Make sure your goggles and helmet fit together seamlessly.

Special fit tip for glasses wearers (OTG)

The THE ARC is designed as an OTG (over-the-glasses) ski goggle and offers extra space for glasses wearers. When adjusting it, make sure that the goggle frame doesn't press your prescription glasses against your face. The temples of your glasses should rest comfortably in the side recesses of the foam.

The right lens for the perfect day

A perfect fit is half the battle, the right lens the other! Thanks to the MagSnap system, you can adjust your visor to the lighting conditions in under 3 seconds.

• Sunshine: Choose a dark lens such as "Chrome Mirror" to reduce glare.
• Cloud cover or snowfall: Contrast-enhancing lenses like "Yellow Storm" brighten your vision and allow you to see contours better.
